Even with lead actress Fumika Shimizu absent from promoting the movie because she is now retired, the live-action Tokyo Ghoul film is moving ahead as planned.
Despite already retiring and not promoting the film, the trailer still introduces Fumika Shimizu in her role as Tohka Kirishima.
Now, the official Shochiku YouTube channel has started streaming a brand new trailer for the upcoming live-action adaptation of Sui Ishida’s manga, complete with English subtitles!
As for Tokyo Ghoul, she has already wrapped up filming for all her scenes in the film, so story-wise, her retirement from acting won’t affect the film itself.
