I found that Ken has held a concert many years ago. There are some pictures of the concert booklets:

Ken looks wonderful, especially the picture on the cover... Lovey Eyes

But I just don't like the name of the concert, "Sympathy Concert Tour". It seems to say goodbye to Ken, after discovering his leukemia (blood cancer) in 1989...


What type of concert was this?

Hello folks , I'm Joining your forum from Europe. I have to admit that I dont know much about Japanese drama but I have certain observations on some of the japanese actors - like Kitano, Mifune etc.

I 've watched Watanabe in The Last Samurai and I'm impressed by the way he acts. I mean he stole the whole show from Cruise.

I do hope that he will gain the Oscar because he really deserves it

The more I am finding the info of Ken, the more I appreciate him.

Has anyone listened to his radio interview? You can listened how Ken's English is...(not too bad, really, and I think it is above standard of Japanese!) He is a such a nice guy with humor~! He sings a bit in the interview too~!

Good luck to him in the coming Oscar...

Sanada Hiroyuki has experience of stage performance in UK on a production of King Lear, he was the only non-British cast in the performance. Also, He earned good critics too..So, it's no wonder that his English is good.

Cannot believe...

Ken will play the villainous Ra's Al Ghul, an immortal strategic character in the upcoming BATMAN 5.

Huh...
Overall, the whole cast looks very good. A lot of talent there... Maybe this will mean a return to *good* Batman movies? ^_^;

Well, I hope so at least....
