Fei Long is a Hong Kong action film star and a master of martial arts who appears as a supporting character in Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie. A talented and serious fighter, he developed his own form of kung fu and honed his skills in street fights before a movie director discovered him, launching him to international stardom. Despite his fame, he remains deeply dedicated to authentic combat and takes great pride in his fighting style, often seeking out worthy opponents to test his abilities in real, unchoreographed battles. In the film, Fei Long is portrayed as calm and collected but possesses a fierce fighting spirit and can be roused to anger when a match becomes challenging.

Within the narrative of the movie, Fei Long encounters the protagonist Ryu while taking a break from filming. Recognizing Ryu's strength, Fei Long challenges him to a fierce and intense match. During the fight, Fei Long initially seems to gain the upper hand, but the battle grows increasingly brutal. When Ryu begins to retaliate, Fei Long becomes angry and unleashes a powerful Shienkyaku, a spinning, rising kick wreathed in flames, which knocks Ryu down. However, Ryu quickly recovers and strikes back with his Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku, a tornado-like kick, breaking Fei Long's arm and knocking him unconscious.

Following their battle, the two warriors develop a quiet mutual respect, and Fei Long is later shown walking with his arm in a cast alongside Ryu. This interaction serves a key narrative purpose, as Fei Long informs Ryu that the powerful Muay Thai fighter Sagat, who was previously defeated by Ryu, has joined the criminal organization Shadaloo. This conversation marks a pivotal moment where Ryu first learns of the syndicate's existence. After sharing this information, Fei Long bids Ryu farewell, and the two part ways to follow their own paths.

Fei Long is defined by his abilities, which are a direct homage to the speed and ferocity of martial arts cinema legends. He is known for his incredible speed and flexibility, utilizing his Hitenryu kung fu style. His signature techniques include the Rekkaken, a series of rapid, rushing punches delivered in a three-part combo. Another notable move is the Shienkyaku, a fiery, rising uppercut kick used to counter aerial attacks, as seen in his fight with Ryu. He is also capable of the Rekkukyaku, an acrobatic flying kick. His fighting style embodies the spirit of Jeet Kune Do, focusing on practicality and directness in combat. The character remains a disciplined martial artist who values genuine combat experience over the choreographed scenes of his films.
