Hiroshi Abe to star in new Koreeda film
Wed, August 8, 2007
It was revealed on Tuesday that director Hirokazu Koreeda's next film is a comical family drama titled "Aruitemo Aruitemo."
Heading up the cast is Hiroshi Abe, known for his frequent roles as unusual characters. This time, he plays the part of a good-for-nothing man who fails to follow in his father's footsteps in medicine. He keeps his distance from his parents, leading a currently unemployed life with his soon-to-be wife, who already has a child. The story unfolds when he reluctantly returns home for the death anniversary of his older brother.
Also appearing are Kirin Kiki, Yoshio Harada, Yui Natsukawa, YOU, and Susumu Terajima. Filming is currently in progress. The movie opens next year.

According to the Tokyograh Abe Hiroshi and Yuko Takeuchi ( the duo in "egao no hosoku " for those who have seen it ) will play in a new movie based on a medical mystery novel "Team Batista no Eikou" written by Takeru Kaido .
This novel allowed the author to win the "Kono Mystery ga Sugoi! Awards" in 2005, after that,this popular novel induced a fight over adaptation rights by 25 studios and television networks.
Toho and TBS won the rights and they will release a film on February 9 of next year.
"The story revolves around a university hospital and a team of doctors specializing in the Batista procedure, an alternative to heart transplantation. The team has a 100% success rate until they perform three consecutive operations that result in the patient's death. An internal investigation begins to determine the reasons for the failures.
The protagonist of the novel is a male doctor in his forties, but TBS suggested replacing the character with a young female. As a result, Yuko Takeuchi now plays the lead as Taguchi, a doctor in charge of the investigation. She initially declares the incidents as accidental deaths, but an eccentric employee from the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (played by Hiroshi Abe) suddenly appears and asserts that the deaths were actually murders. Together, the two continue to probe the matter.
Yoshihiro Nakamura is directing. Filming begins on the 7th." The tokyograph _________________
