Sōsuke Ikematsu and Yuu Aoi reprise their roles as protagonist Hiro Miyamoto and Yasuko Nakano, respectively, from the live-action series adaptation of the manga last year.
Star Sands announced on Thursday that it is producing a live-action film adaptation of Hideki Arai’s Miyamoto kara Kimi e (From Miyamoto to You) manga.
Arai’s 1995-1996 manga Itoshi no Irene also inspired a live-action film that opened in Japan last September.
The film’s story will focus on Miyamoto and Nakano in the “ultimate paean to humanity.”
