5 recommended movies starring Takumi Kitamura! A 22-year-old with endless potential

Somewhat 22 years old. But what is this calm? The word rookie doesn't suit the actor Takumi Kitamura at all.

To begin with, he is a strong man who was scouted in the third grade of elementary school and entered the entertainment industry. He is a veteran with over 10 years of experience. At the time of his debut, he auditioned for more than 100 auditions but could not get through, and apparently spent a lot of time in despair.However, in 2008, he played the role of Sosuke Ikematsu's childhood in the movie ``DIVE!!'', and appeared in ``Gravity Clown'' (2009). ), he played Masaki Okada in ``TAJOMARU'' (2009), Shun Oguri in ``Girl in the Sun'' (2013), and played the main cast's boyhood roles, one by one.

In 2011, he played one of the key characters in the highly acclaimed drama "Suzuki Sensei." He played classmates with current popular actresses such as Tao Tsuchiya and Mayu Matsuoka (he co-starred with Tsuchiya in ``Harumachi Bokutakura'' (2018) and with Matsuoka in ``Want to Tremble'' (17). is also interesting). Here, he takes on the role of a mysterious character who is usually well-behaved, but only exhibits problematic behavior during school lunches, and shows his presence by showing signs of "testing" the main character's teacher, played by Hiroki Hasegawa. In 2012, he made his debut in a taiga drama in ``Taira no Kiyomori''.

His subsequent successes are now known to everyone. At the same time, he is also active with the dance rock band ``DISH//'' whose concept is ``singing and dancing while playing'', and most recently, ``Neko'', whose lyrics and compositions were written by popular singer-songwriter Aimyon, has become very popular. It attracted a lot of attention.

Currently, there are over 6 new movies on the waiting list. He has played the leading role in more than half of them, once again giving the impression that his time has arrived. This time, we will carefully select five of the movies that Kitamura has appeared in.

1. “Destruction Babies” (16) Director: Tetsuya Mariko 108 minutes

In the drama ``Yutori de Gana Naka'' (2016), in which Masaki Okada, Tori Matsuzaka, and Yuya Yagira co-starred, she played an angry college student who is the love rival of the teacher played by Matsuzaka. In "Kojo" (2016), Kitamura played the role of Son, who is active in a death metal band with unusual make-up, and it seems like Kitamura's roles have gradually expanded.

``Destruction Babies'', which he starred in in the same year, was a very unusual and unique work in his career. This is a powerful, mysterious work that made the name of the genius director Tetsuya Mariko, who later directed the drama and movie ``From Miyamoto to You'' (2018 and 19), about a violent man played by Yuya Yagira and a man who is fascinated by him. The story follows the journey of a high school student (Masaki Suda) and a cabaret club girl (Nana Komatsu) who is kidnapped.

In any case, it is a film with a harsh depiction of violence, with vivid depictions of "punching," "kicking," and "bloodshed." It can be said that this is a controversial work in which the Monster nature of Yagira, who has become the embodiment of violence, and the danger of Suda, who is about to plunge into madness, continue to shine brightly. There are many shocking scenes in which a high school student played by Suda harms a woman in a shopping district, and Yagira continues to beat someone while bleeding.

In this work, Kitamura plays a friend of the main character's younger brother (Nijiro Murakami), played by Yagira. Suda plays the role of a high school student who hangs out in the shopping district on a skateboard, picks up girls, and after witnessing the shoplifting of a hostess played by Komatsu, he attempts to blackmail her. He is a dangerous character who lacks ethics and morals and tries to devour momentary pleasure. In the movie, he also takes on the challenge of fighting scenes.

Kitamura has a reputation for playing cool, introverted roles, but the villainous side he shows in this film seems quite fresh now. I would like you to burn your eyes in this precious dirty role.
