$\"NewsHub\"$ Hirokazu Koreeda , the Japanese director who is a darling of the international festival circuit (\u201cAir Doll,\u201d \u201cOur LIttle Sister\u201d,) has revealed that his next film will reunite him with Masaharu Fukuyama, star of Koreeda\u2019s 2013 hit family drama \u201cLike Father, Like Son.\u201d The script is a Koreeda original.
Fukuyama plays a hotshot winning-is-everything lawyer who reluctantly defends a convicted killer and ex-convict played by Koji Yakusho (\u201cThe Last Ronin,\u201d \u201cMemoirs of a Geisha\u201d) charged with another murder.
The film will shoot from mid-January to March with a September release planned. Distribution in Japan will be jointly by Gaga and Toho. The international sales agent has not yet been settled.
Describing the film\u2019s protagonist, Koreeda said in a statement: \u201cHe is a person whose professional credo is that he doesn\u2019t need to know the truth. He takes a certain pride in that. But in dealing with what looks at first glance to be a criminal in a simple murder case, his sense of values is shaken and he really wants to know what is true.\u201d<\/p>\n
