On January 14th, GACKT's Hollywood debut movie "BUNRAKU" was released in Japan. Despite his busy schedule, GACKT appeared for a stage greeting to promote the movie.

"BUNRAKU" is a martial-arts action movie directed by Guy Moshe. GACKT plays a Samurai,"Yoshi", who becomes partners with a drifter played by�Josh Hartnett.

During the stage greeting, GACKT revealed how rough the filming was. �According to GACKT, he fainted, hitting his head during an action scene with Josh. �He was then transferred�to the hospital by�ambulance. �Not only fainting, he also had an extremely high fever, and broke his tooth.

GACKT said, "In my whole life, I've never thought that I could not accomplish something, but during the�filming, I had a feeling that 'I might give up on this' for the first time." �He also said, "The expectation of the directer was quite big, including toward my action skills, so I wanted to meet the expectation, and wanted to make a great work. �Thus, I decided to do things as best as I could. �To be honest, I was glad I did not get injured anything worse than those."

When asked if there is any plan to make an�appearance�on another Hollywood movie, GACKT answered, "Hmm...I can't tell exactly yet, but if my schedule matches and as long as it's interesting, I would like to appear on any movie not only Hollywood movies, but also Japanese movies. �I'm sure I would be able to show something interesting to the fans." �About the character he would like to play, "I've always thought that I wanted to express insanity, but comedy might be interesting too. �Recently, I'm also interested in Yankee movies as well, so please look forward."

"BUNRAKU" will be shown for a limited time until on the 27th.
