Johnny’s Entertainment member Kazama Shunsuke will be a leading actor for upcoming live-action movie “Maebashi Visual-Kei“, scheduled for release in February 2011.  Kazama has been active in many dramas and stage performances, and even participating in some formidable voice-acting stints (‘Motou Yugi’ for “Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters”)!

The film is about 4 boys from the countryside who form a visual-kei rock band and try to be big. Kazama will play the vocalist of the band, the eldest son of farmer.

On October 22nd, a press conference was held at the shooting location in Maebashi, Gunma.  Kazama said that one of the highlights for him is seeing the difference between his natural face and visual-kei face.  He also said, “It’s been 6-7 years since I last sang in public…it’s so not Johnny’s Entertainment.”
