■“If there’s anyone who can play this role, she’s the only one.” “It didn’t feel like it was her first time acting.” (Director Takahiro Miki)
Scene photos of Minami Maezono, played by Milet, have been released from the latest theatrical release of director Takahiro Miki’s “Shiraishira Kanojo” (released on February 28, 2025), starring Kento Nakajima and Milet’s first movie appearance.
This is Milet’s first film appearance, and he takes on the difficult role of a charismatic musician and a lonely wife who has given up on her dreams. The main character, Riku Kanbayashi, is played by Kento Nakajima.
Riku and Minami met in college, fell in love at first sight, and got married. Eight years later, Riku, who was aiming to become a novelist, suddenly became a popular best-selling author, thanks in part to the support of Minami, who had given up on his dream of becoming a singer. Riku thought everything was going well, but when he woke up one morning, Minami wasn’t there, and when he went to a meeting with the publisher, he was confused when he found that the people he met didn’t connect with him at all. I was supposed to be a popular writer, but now I am an editorial staff member of a literary magazine, and the town is full of images and songs of “Minami Maezono”, a genius singer-songwriter who I have never even met. . A fantastic love story drawn in two world lines.
Milet plays a wide range of roles, from an ordinary college student chasing her dreams in the “Original World” to a housewife who is troubled by the misunderstanding even though she should have married the person she loves, with full of natural charm. In the role of a popular singer who performs as “Minami Maezono” in “Minami Maezono”, she generously displayed her artist side as a singer/milet.
Regarding this casting, director Takahiro Miki revealed that he was confident that “If there was anyone who could play this role, she was the only one.” After filming, the director said, “It didn’t feel like it was her first acting role at all.” . I would like to pay attention to the movie “Unknown Girlfriend”, which is a fantastic love story that is told in two different worlds.
