The “Hana Kimi” remake was announced by Fuji TV last month, with Maeda replacing Horikita Maki from the original 2007 series as Ashiya Mizuki. Nakamura and Miura are likewise taking over the roles that were played by Shun Oguri and Toma Ikuta, as Izumi Sano and Nakatsu Shuichi respectively.
About Hanakimi...
Nakamura’s thoughts about his role, “I’m aiming to not just portray Sano as an ikemen by appearance, but also show his hidden passion and strong willpower.” Miura then comments about replacing Ikuta for the role of Nakatsu, “I’m feeling happy and pressure at the same time. I’d like to become as foolish as possible in order to portray the role of Nakatsu to the best of my abilities.” Also included in the cast are three tokusatsu alumni, Kamen Rider W's Shoutaro, Renn Kiriyama, and Kamen Rider Kabuto's Yaguruma/Kick Hopper, Hidenori Tokuyama, and Kagami/Gatack, Yuki Sato.
