Veteran actor Kinya Kitaoji will star in TV Tokyo's new jidaigeki series "Genjuro Hissatsuken," which airs this winter. Kitaoji is no stranger to period dramas; he has starred in many throughout his career, including at least one every year since 2001.
"Genjuro Hissatsuken" is adapted from the novel "Meifu no Shikaku" by Yuichiro Kurosaki. Kitaoji plays Genjuro, a former official who murders a colleague and is sentenced to death. He escapes punishment by having another criminal take his place, then restarts his life as a swordsman who faces off against evildoers. The series will air on Fridays at 8:00pm, starting on January 18. Link to article |
