Arashi - Ninomiya and Sakurai acting in a drama together for the first time

Kazunari Ninomiya (23) and Sho Sakurai (25) from the popular group Arashi, will be acting together in a special drama. The drama will start in July under TBS, and is titled “Yamada Taro Monogatari” (Friday night 10 p.m.). This is a manga story that appeared in the Shojyou Comics “Gekkan Asuka” and is based on the original manga by Ai Morinaga. It was made into a drama in 2001 in Taiwan. Ninomiya, who plays the lead, is Taro Yamada, who is a handsome, smart and able sportsman who is in Year 3 of high school. He is idolized by all the girls in the school, but in reality, he is really poor. The story is an upbeat comedy in which he is mistaken by the people around him as a "Rich Boy". Sakurai plays the important role as the real high school celebrity, who really understands Ninomiya. The chief producer says, "The setting is rather outrageous, but the theme of this drama is about family and friends and it is a warm and heartfelt drama."

According to Johnny's Jimusho (Johnny's Company), there has, in the past, been instances where up and coming groups have acted together in a drama, but something like this, where top idols like Arashi act together is an exception. Ninomiya says, "If Sho-kun is together with me, I will be able to push myself on." Sakurai says enthusiastically, "The important thing is that the audience should feel a distance from Taro Yamada. If we can draw out that difference it would be good."
