Esumi Makiko and Ishihara Satomi to star in new drama, "Bull Doctor"

Earlier today it was announced that Esumi Makiko and Ishihara Satomi are going to star in a new drama called "Bull Doctor" next season.

"Bull Doctor" is a mystery/crime drama and will be Esumi's first drama starring role in four years. She will play a skilled forensic scientist who uses any means necessary in order to find out the truth behind the deaths of the people, and as a result, she often clashes with the people around her. The person with whom Esumi's character is clashing with the most is another female detective, and career woman, played by Ishihara Satomi.

Acting in the shadow of the two strong women is SMAP's Inagaki Goro, who will play another forensic scientist and boyfriend of Ishihara's character. 14 years ago he already appeared together with Esumi in the romantic drama "Koi no Katamichi Kippu," but this time their characters are going to entirely hate each other.

Esumi commented, "It's one of the strongest women I've played so far and I'm really excited."

Hashibe Atsuko, who already worked on popular dramas such as "Freeter, Ie wo Kau," "Boku no Ikiru Michi," "Kyumei Byoto 24 Ji", and many more, was responsible for the script of "Bull Doctor". She was influenced by a lot of true stories when she wrote the plot. The two leading women are also said to portray the true way of life of two hardworking women, with both of them having very strong willpower and no lack of pride.

Esumi anxiously added, "Being able to work together with Hashibe and all those wonderful actors for my first drama in four years, I'm truly happy."

For Ishihara, it is actually the first time she plays the role of a female detective. She said, "When I first received the story line and realized that I finally would be able to play a detective, I thought to myself that I have really become an adult now. I love to challenge new things and can't wait to start with the filming."

NTV is going to air "Bull Doctor" every Wednesday at 10 PM.
