It has been revealed that actress Mizuki Yamashita will be appearing in the film " The Orokamono no mibun " (directed by Koto Nagata), starring Takumi Kitamura Kitamura, Go Ayano, and Yuta Hayashi. She will play Kisara, a co-worker of Takuya, played by Kitamura, who makes money by buying and selling family registers.
The film is based on the novel of the same name (Tokuma Bunko) by Jun Nishio, which won the 2nd Yabu Haruhiko Newcomer Award. The story depicts the fate and bond of three young people who, due to poverty, enter the world of shady business and are unable to escape. Kitamura plays the protagonist Matsumoto Takuya, who poses as a woman on social media and makes money by selling and buying family registers for the benefit of orphaned men. Ayano plays Kajitani Kenji, a courier in the underworld who is like an older brother to Takuya and teaches him the business of selling family registers. Hayashi plays Kakizaki Mamoru, who grew up in a complicated family environment without knowing the love of his family.
Yamashita plays Kisara, a coworker who is the one who "acts" when Takuya actually comes into contact with men. Although she has an obsession with money due to her financially difficult past, her character also has a kind and caring side.
The appearances of Yuma Yamoto and Haruka Kinami were also announced. Yamoto plays Haruto Egawa, who sold his family registry to Takuya and has remained close to him ever since, while Kinami plays Yuika, Kajitani's girlfriend who is clumsy but receives his honest love.
A teaser visual was also released, showing Takuya, Mamoru, and Kajitani standing shoulder to shoulder with the neon lights of Kabukicho in Shinjuku in the background, along with the tagline "Reborn."
◇ Mizuki Yamashita(role of Kisara)
I was only able to participate in the filming for a few days, but it left me with a deeper, hotter, and more unforgettable memory of the summer than I could have ever imagined. This film makes you think about who you are, as it portrays three people who are both poisonous and refreshing, straightforward and twisted. It may seem like you are looking at a world that is far removed from you, but I'm sure that everyone is living on a similar boundary. I'm really happy to have been able to participate in this cast. I'm looking forward to the film being released!
◇Yuma Yamoto (Haruto Egawa <Yuto Taniguchi>)
For an actor, spending time in real life when not in character is more work than work itself, and I think that gave me the push I needed to play this role. That's because I have a family, and it's the place where I'm happiest and I never want it to disappear. I already had the most important thing in playing a man who has lost it. Then it was an ordeal to imagine it being taken away from him. There is no pop Yamoto Yuma. I'm playing someone you've never seen before!
◇Haruka Kinami (role of Yuika)
It was the first time that my image of a movie changed so much between when I read the script and when I saw the movie. It was so beautiful, and the story of the bond between the three men was the very essence of youth, and I felt so refreshed after watching it. I am truly happy to have been able to participate in this work. And I hope that this work will reach many people.
