38-year-old singer-songwriter Akinori Nakagawa, who played the protagonist Tetsuro Hoshino in the manga’s two straight play adaptations in 2018 and 2019, Galaxy Express 999 ~ Galaxy Opera ~ and Galaxy Express 999: Farewell, Maetel ~ My Eternity ~, will reprise his role again.
A musical adaptation of Leiji Matsumoto’s sci-fi adventure manga series Galaxy Express 999 is set to be performed at Nihon Seinenkan Hall in Tokyo in April 2022, under the title Galaxy Express 999: THE MUSICAL.
She is very happy with this casting, “After watching Galaxy Express 999: Farewell, Maetel ~ My Eternity ~, I felt that Maeter is an eternal being, so I am very honored to have this opportunity.”
