FirstShowing caught up with Luke Goss at the "Hellboy II: The Golden Army" press junket, where Goss talked briefly about his upcoming "Tekken" movie, which is based on a popular Namco video game.
"Goss stars in the film as fighter Steve Fox (pictured above). Goss explained that his character is 15 years after his prime time as one of the best fighters. He says that he fights, but not actually in the ring - only out of it in the movie. Although various games have their own background stories, the plot of the film focuses on Heihachi Mishima (Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa), the leader of a highly corrupt business under investigation of a murder. He announces a tournament to crown a "King Of Iron Fist" and make the winner his personal bodyguard, but as the fighters assemble, they begin to realize they are linked together through more than just their interest in killing Mishima anyway."
Goss also mentioned that the film will likely end up being R-rated. He did not give reasons for this, but mentioned that an R-rating would not be a problem because all of the players of the game are now old enough to see that kind of violence.
