“Gorilla Hall” is a feature film set at GORILLA HALL OSAKA, an actual live house in Osaka. All cast information has been additionally announced in the third cast announcement!
Arata Furuta plays the manager of the live house “Gorilla Hall,” which is the symbol of this work. The cast includes Tomomitsu Yamaguchi as the main character Asako’s father, Yuka Kurotani as her mother, Ayumu Ito as a record company employee, and Tetsuya Kan as the manager of the Amerikamura live house. We have also received comments from the cast.
■ Main character Asako’s older sister: Mitsuko Okamoto / Kana Nakagawa
I’m really happy to be able to participate in this work, which is set at the live house “Gorilla Hall” and is full of musical power and energy.
I’m from the Kansai region, so I’m really excited about filming in Osaka and filming the scene where the sisters argue in the Kansai dialect (lol).
I would like to have fun playing the role of a strong-willed but loving older sister!
■Event host: FM802 DJ Daiki Higuchi
I was playing the role of myself, but the director gave me advice, saying, “This is just Daiki Higuchi in fiction.” This is my first time acting in a movie, but I’m excited that it will open a new door within me. I feel that this work depicts something intangible but important, the love of music and the connection with people. I’m sure it will open a new door for those who watch it. I hope you will like music and live houses more.
■Event host: Ojasu
Hey! It’s Ojasu! It’s a great honor to be able to play the role of myself as the story is set in my hometown of Osaka!
This movie is packed with youth, so I’d be happy if I could deliver excitement and shock after watching it!
■Label employee Honjo’s subordinate: Nishi / Kyoyasu Matsumoto
Reading the script brought me back to those days when I was struggling to become an actor, thinking only about my future and acting. Somehow,
A hot, painful, but beautiful time. There are many things that everyone can relate to.
I think there is. Hiring talented young people as employees of label companies
We will support you. thank you.
■Label employee Honjo’s subordinate: Shibata / Hitomi Hazuki
As I read the script, tears started flowing and my heart was purified at the end.
This is the kind of work that has been done. Above all, the Osaka dialect is unique.
I was very impressed by the conversation, which felt like I was watching a skit. Koji’s scripts always have love at the core, and I really like them.
Please look forward to it!
■Live house manager in Amemura: Otake / Tetsuya Kan
I have recently decided to appear in the movie “Gorilla Hole”! Through this story full of youthful energy, where people struggle and move forward despite suffering, I feel that even I, an old man, can regain the passion that I had almost forgotten. If you watch this movie, you’ll definitely want to go to a live music venue. Please look forward to it! Tetsuya Kan (THE Kan)
■Protagonist Asako’s father: Kazuhisa Okamoto / Tomomitsu Yamaguchi
“Gorilla Hole” The title already caught my attention.
LIVE! music! band! friendship! It’s the best! The temperature that one person conveys to another is
It will never change! Dear people in their 50s like me, and even more senior to me,
Watching this movie, I remembered that hot and crunchy time,
Let’s get even hotter! Youth for life! !
■Mother of the main character Asako: Toki Okamoto / Yuka Kurotani
Actually, when I was in high school, I formed a girls’ band and was in charge of the guitar (lol).I carried the guitar and went to Abeno, Osaka at the time.
I used to go to that studio a lot.
I want to make a wonderful movie that will bring energy to everyone who watches it.
■Record company employee: Kayo Honjo / Ayumu Ito
As a gorilla lover, I heard the movie title was “Gorilla Hole.”
I want to do it right now! I answered immediately (lol)
If you chase your dreams, you have something to lose, but people still want to dream.
A work that captures a sad yet beautiful moment,
I’m also looking forward to shooting on location in my favorite city, Osaka!
■Gorilla Hall Manager: Muranaka / Arata Furuta
Hello, this is Arata Furuta. During this time, my best friend, ♀ta-kun,
I will be playing the role of the manager of Gorilla Hall, which I helped out with at the “♀ Festival”. Well, I guess there’s a connection.
From reading the script, it seems like it will be a wonderful work. I would like to help you so that you don’t get in the way. There are many old acquaintances such as Gussan, Yuka, and Kan, so please look forward to it!
