Bruce Lees daughter reacts to Fei Long controversy

The past few days have been particularly painful for Street Fighter fans worshiping Bruce Lee. Indeed, Daniel Lindholm, the composer of Street Fighter 5, recently stated – the video has since been deleted – that we would never see Fei Long on the show again. The reason ? The family of the one who is nicknamed the Little Dragon would now like the allusions to the creator of jeet kune do to be worthy. “I have sources, not only within Capcom but also friends living in the United States, who are very close to Bruce’s familyhe explained. They told me that any reference to Bruce Lee should no longer be done in a humorous way but with a certain sense of honor. This is the reason why we will never see Fei Long again.“

A heartbreak for all those who discovered the character in Super Street Fighter II at the beginning of the 90s. The affair took on such proportions that it reached the ears of Shannon Lee, the daughter of Bruce Lee who feeds the Twitter account dedicated to the legend; and fortunately, his version is quite different. “Fei Long has been one of the best tributes to Bruce Lee for decadesunderlines a tweetos. Is it possible to have an official press release on this subject?” To which she responds: “We have never made a comment of this nature. We have no idea what ‘close family friends’ Daniel Lindholm is talking about, but his comments about us are completely untrue.“

Contacted by VG247, Daniel Lindholm seemed to backpedal. “It was only a hypothesis, not a truth.“, he said. Regarding the famous sources close to the family, he pointed out that he wanted to refer to the fact that the Bruce Lee portrayed by Quentin Tarantino in the film Once Upon a Time…in Hollywood had not pleased its members, and that for once it was a fact. Finally, he let it be known that he did not get his information from Capcom. Anyway, the chances of seeing Fei Long again in Street Fighter 6 haven’t definitely gone away, and that’s probably the main thing.
