CATDOLL: The lead actor of the live-action movie of "Tokyo Ghoul" was revealed. He had played Light Yagami in the TV version of "Death Note".

Previously, Tokyo Ghoul announced that it would make a live-action movie, and the original author of the manga, Ishida Sui, said on Twitter that "the leading actors were chosen by themselves", so please rest assured. Now the leading actors of the live-action movie of Tokyo Ghoul have finally been announced. The male role of Kaneki Ken will be played by Kubota Masataka, who once starred in the TV version of Death Note Light Yagami, and the female role of Touka will be played by Shimizu Fumika. It seems that the casting is still good. The director of this drama will be Kentaro Hagiwara, who has previously shot many short films and won many overseas awards. The film will start shooting in July this year and is scheduled to be released in the summer of 2017.

The original author Ishida Sui said that he noticed Kubota Masataka when he watched a movie in 2011. At that time, a tearful scene made him feel that Kubota Masataka not only had a great acting skill, but also gave him a feeling that Kaneki Ken actually existed in this world. He has been quietly following the activities of the young man since then. The female lead Shimizu Fumika was also chosen by the author himself.

In Tokyo, there is a kind of monster that eats humans, which people call ghouls. They look almost the same as humans, but they only feed on humans and are the natural enemies of humans. One day, Kaneki Ken met a mysterious woman, Ms. Kamishiro Rize (actually a ghoul), and was involved in a carefully planned accident. Since then, he was transformed into a half-human, half-ghoul. He felt lonely and helpless for a while, but was taken in by the ghouls in the "Antique" coffee shop. However, the good times did not last long. The ghoul organization "Bronze Tree" soon found him and took him away to endure torture. In the end, he realized that "weakness is sin" and decided to become stronger, and since then he has embarked on another path.
