"Byakuyako": new film version

[alexandral]

"Byakuyako"! this is not the end of it! And Horikita Maki is going to play the main role! For me, Korean film "Into the White Nigth" was pretty enough of this particular brand of combination of naivety and horror, but it seems there will be more!!!!!! I am intrigued! I think I will catch up on the Jdrama version this week.

But why Horikita Maki? Why not the other actress, the one who played the role in the Jdrama, Ayase Haruka?

I agree with you re: remakes. I think Maki will be great. I am more interested who the guy is going to be, as I am also not that invested into the lead guy in the Jdrama version (I think Haruka carries the drama).

Hehe, I completely disagree. I love Ayase Haruka, but the draw of the drama for me was definitely Yamada Takayuki. I thought his portrayal was amazing.

Rumors are that Kora Kengo is going to play the male lead in the movie.

Oh, thank you! Kora Kengo looks like he can do, but it all will depend on the way he acts.

Yamada Takayuki - this is a purely subjective thing, I don't seem to find myself attracted to him. But this might change - I intend to catch up on the drama this weekend.
