Gossip magazine “Shukan Josei“s reported on September 7th that ex-KAT-TUN member, Akanishi Jin, will debut in a Hollywood movie – “Pirates of the Caribbean 4“, to be exact, scheduled for release sometime in 2011.

‘Shukan Josei’ contacted Walt Disney Japan for confirmation on the rumor, and they answered that they have not yet been informed about it at the moment.

If this is true, it would be a great chance for Jin, because according to Shukan Josei, Jin has been saying that his goal is Hollywood!

  • AlexisBB

    omgee im so out in japan entertainment world! AKANISHI JIN IS NOT IN KAT TUN ANYMORE ):

  • chocomaxfactor

    Jin dressed as a pirate? lol!
    anybody else having a flashback to Cartoon KAT-TUN when they wore the mustaches and Taguchi had a Hitler stache and Jin’s made him look like . . . idk a retired porn star? It’s hard to describe . . .
    *sigh* this was back when he actually cared . . .

  • Shuriachi

    Whoa very random??? LOL

  • bakaojou379

    I’ll still support him even though he quit KAT-TUN (I still hold grudges against you Jin!) I love PotC, I’m gonna watch it. I just hope that he’s there. (Pls God grant this wish.) I wish him luck also cuz the road to Hollywood is not easy. It’s very harsh.

  • mDubu

    @chocomaxfactor: I totally remember that episode. Your comment is win.
    (:

  • BlackJacks09

    wow That would be awesome. If it’s true, I better catch up on the movies lol

  • tonbi

  • OosakiNana707

    If this is TRUE, GOOOOOD for Jin, but like always happens with Asian Celebs on Hollywood movies.. They will just get small parts, so dont wait to watch JIn on the WHOLE movie… ^^

  • OosakiNana707

    I juts saw the Main Cast on imdb, and Jin is not there, so like I told u.. Dont expect Jin to be on the whole movie..

  • tikkytikky

  • Miley.Fille.Mignonne

    I Miss Him So Much! And I Really Don’t Understand Why Is Everyone Bashing Him! And What’s Up With Bad Attitude?!! Hate Him Don’t Comment!! *Sigh*…..Anyway, I Wish Him The Best Of The Best! I Still Love Him And Support Him No Matter What Happen ^^ .. P/S: Can You Guys Like Remove KAT-TUN Tag Please? His No Longer A Member Of KAT-TUN.. And Of Course I Still Support KAT-TUN!!

  • Buddy Sokarijo

    Not true at all, the POTC 4 Movie has been shooting for months while Jin is having concerts here and there. The chances that he is in the movie is very low.

  • Applerchan

    Trust me girls, and guys, this guy cannot make it. He can make it maybe because of looks , there’s nothing special to his voice, I’ve been their fan since 2007. The one with the voice is Kame , Jin WAS just the screamer and the looks . Besides , this is old news, I knew about this, BUT its just a rumour cause he said that he wants to try out. Best of luck tho .

  • Buddy Sokarijo

    Ow god seriously? does people realy have to make this another fucking Johnnys VS Johnny discussion?

  • 1582

    yup it’s old news..i’ve heard about this rumour few months back..

  • AnNguyen

    I would be cool to see him in it no matter how big or small his role will be ^^

  • luvablesteph

    I’ve heard this before, I think it was false

  • t-chan

    it would be cool. Jin ;)

  • NobuMomu

    Never really paid attention to Pirates of the caribbean series… lol.

    and… I don’t have much interest in Jin either, but I totally want to see this if its true! xD

  • MontrealKelly749

    I hope he fails and becomes forgotten for ever!! >.<
    Stupid bastard leaves his groups and tries to make it in hollywood with a brocken english?!
    I seriously hate him!! I feel super bad for the rest of KaT-TUN T.T

  • JJfyre

    I love POTC and I love Jin, so this is amazing =]
    Seriously, why are there so many Jin haters? I love both KAT-TUN and Jin, and I wasn’t happy when I found out he was leaving the band, but seriously just get over it. I wish him all the best luck in Hollywood.

  • jill_sakamoto

    just a rumor i hope, i don’t have anything against him,i just love the movies…

  • victastic92

    ehhh i hope not. Kamenashi is much more deserving than him.

  • miruloveschocola

    haa??
    what will his role be if ever?? x)

  • http://facebook.com/ddkrnaddict ddkrnaddict

    ehh…i hope not…..america really ruins these asian artists like the wonder girls D:

  • JaeJoongfan

    i have never really liked him but i am not gunna hate on him cuz he left KAT-TUN even though i am pissed off about that….but i don’t think he would make it because 1. there is nothing special about his voice or him, he would only get by on his looks 2. if it is true he would probably only have like 5 mins of screen time and its probably going to be one of those asian biased roles and 3) he just wouldn’t make it in my opinion…..anyway yeah but it would be cool if it happened but at the same time ehhhh :\

    It’s really sad reading these comments… Akanishi Jin works hard and he didn’t leave Kat-tun cause he is a bad person.. its because he wants to pursue his dreams…

  • Anonymous

    Really if this is true then it seems like I’ll have to take lots of medication so I dont pass out from being so happy. I want the best for Jin as well as the KAT-TUN members.
    Please let him be in it *prays*

    hope he makes it..it’s his dream after all :p :)
