Actor Suzuki Ryohei appeared at the advance screening of the second episode of the TBS Sunday Theatre "Reboot" (Sunday 9pm) held in Tokyo on January 22nd.
Yukiya Kitamura, who plays Goroku, and scriptwriter Tsutomu Kuroiwa also appeared. In a talk after the screening, Suzuki spoke about the future, saying, "In episode 3, I'm forced into an extremely difficult position. The beginning of episode 3 was the most difficult emotionally, and I was pushed into the corner the most."
Upon hearing this, Kuroiwa said, "Oh, so that's how it goes. It's really interesting. The beginning of episode 3 is the highlight of the first half."
The drama is an original work that popular screenwriter Kuroiwa spent three years planning. It is a suspense story about a kind-hearted pastry chef, Hayase Riku (Matsuyama Kenichi), who is framed for the murder of his wife, but abandons his beloved family and past to pose as corrupt Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department detective Gido Ayumu (Suzuki) in order to prove his innocence and find the real culprit. The drama also stars Toda Erika and Kuroki Meisa.
