Street Fighter Cast Reveals Their Nerdiest Fandoms
Who do Street Fighter's stars nerd out about when they're not playing fighters? Maude Garrett put that question, and plenty more, to the cast and director Kitao Sakurai in Nerdist's most-watched new upload, which has drawn roughly 54,000 views.
"Can The Street Fighter Cast Daigo Parry Our Rapid-Fire Questions?" brings together Andrew Koji, Noah Centineo, Callina Liang, Cody Rhodes, Andrew Schulz, Eric Andre, David Dastmalchian and Rayna Vallandingham. Released ahead of the movie's October 16 theatrical opening, the interview asks about their fandoms and their preferred Street Fighter characters. In the comments, Rhodes' appreciation for Cyclops gets particular attention, alongside requests for more interviews with Garrett.
That conversation has also given the shorter uploads material. "Cody Rhodes is an X-Men nerd #StreetFighter #Xmen #CodyRhodes" is currently drawing the channel's busiest daily audience, with the full interview and an Eric André clip supplying the other strongest pockets of momentum.
Nerdist posted fifteen uploads altogether. New York Comic Con's Main Stage and Empire Stage livestreams offered the longer convention experience, while a Krysten Ritter encounter turned the fandom question toward Jessica Jones herself. A second John Stewart-Guy Gardner round also returned Lanterns to the shelf after its earlier prominence here.
Across the channel, the week brought roughly 812,000 views. Subscribers held steady, while daily viewing is running about half above its usual level. The convention broadcasts have slowed considerably; the Street Fighter conversation is where Nerdist's new releases remain busiest.
