There new production photos for the live action adaptation of the action comedy manga “Kuroshitsuji” (Black Butler) had been released. The film stars Hiro Mizushima (Kamen Rider Kabuto) and Ayame Gouriki (Gatchaman).
Being the perfect guy for the role of Sebastian, Mizushima reportedly dropped to around 50kg in the four months leading up to the shoot through intense action training.
The film is set 130 years after the original manga, in the year 2020, in an Asian city where Western and Asian cultures freely intermingle. Since only males can take the reins of the family, Shiori dons male clothes and the name Kiyoharu to lead the massive Phantom Corporation.
Directed by Kentaro Otani (NANA) and anime creator Keiichi Sato (Tiger & Bunny), the “Black Butler” live action film is slated to be released early next year.

The hair doesn't suit Hiro... . :(
ReplyDeleteHe's playing a butler again? He can get better roles than this.
ReplyDeletegouriki lol
ReplyDeletewe all hate gouriki
50kg in four months? What kind of training was that :P
ReplyDeleteI guess even demons can walk the path of Heaven too.
ReplyDeleteDropped 50kg!? Seriously!?
ReplyDeletePretty sure mizushima dropped "TO" 50kg. Unless he got rather chubby after he quit acting
ReplyDeletenot a fan of gouriki's acting,but I will definitely watch this for Mizushima Hiro.
ReplyDeleteHope this movie will be great!
The perfect actor to be played as perfect man. has been a perfect fighter (and perfect brother and perfect cook at the same time) once, a perfect doctor once (2 season count as once), now as a perfect butler for twice.
ReplyDeleteOk seriously I was hoping to see Sebastian and Ciel combination not Sebastian and stranger combination. This is just disappointing. And I am never a fan of Gouriki. They could have chosen some other actress. Hiro is awesome but Gouriki? Not so much.
ReplyDelete50lbs surely? If not, that kid is going to be too damn ill
ReplyDelete50 kg in 4 months? Okay, that must've been a typho, because it's impossible. If it was real, he'd be dead by now cause I dont think he ever reached more than 80 something kg
ReplyDeleteUm, guys, it says dropped TO around 50 kg. So no, he didn't lose 50 kg.
ReplyDeleteUm, guy, it did say that and Geki has obviously fixed his typo.
Deletedon`t forget a perfect guitarist
