Ryo Yamada, a member of Johnny’s idol group “Hey! Say! JUMP”, starred in the movie “What to Do When a Monster Dies”, and joined hands with Tsuchiya Taiho, Odakiri, Hamadatake and others to challenge a more difficult task than “destroy the monster”. It is expected to be released in theaters on June 24.
“What to Do When the Monster Dies” is written and directed by Japanese director Satoshi Miki of the “Time Limit Police” series. The plot tells the story of a giant monster that made humans panic. One day, it was suddenly surrounded by a strong light and died. It seemed that the crisis of the country was relieved, but who should deal with that “giant corpse” and how? Special agent. Shinta with a sword (played by Yamada Ryosuke) was given this important task, but they did not expect that a greater crisis is waiting for them, which is related to the survival of mankind…. This work is also the first time that Yamada Ryosuke starred in a special film. He said: “I think my acting career will continue in the future, and this film is one of the most important works. After overcoming many difficulties, I finally completed this film. The work has an ending that will surprise everyone at the end of the story.” He also emphasized that he hoped that the audience who had watched it would not have a thunderstorm.
The huge monster in the movie “What to Do When the Monster Dies”, the total length (head to tail) is about 380 meters, and the height (the state of the fallen feet is raised, the toes are up to the body) is about 155 meters. Shinichi Wakasa, the stylist who made the monsters in the Godzilla and Ultraman series, is responsible for the work, and the theme of the movie revolves around the aftermath of the monster’s death. When asked what he would do if the corpses of monsters really appeared in the world, Yamada Ryosuke said after a bit of annoyance: “Should we gather people from all over Japan to bake and eat together? Everyone eats and discusses “this part” “It’s delicious” or something like that, it might be good to make it into roasted meat.” Odakiri holds a different view: “People think that the corpse of the big monster is a trouble for human beings, but as long as they leave it alone, they will return one day. Nature, so it shouldn’t be dealt with.” Let the big monster be dealt with by the principles of nature.
Yamada Ryosuke used to challenge large-scale VFX (visual effects) shooting and action scenes such as wire hanging in the filming of the movies “Assassination Classroom” and “Steel Alchemist”. He shared these past experiences to bring this film. A lot of help: “I have participated in many works using VFX so far, so after the director gave an abstract instruction such as “the size of the monster is about this, the line of sight is about this side”, I can probably imagine it. This is the first time I encountered this kind of It is inevitable to be confused when using special shooting methods, these are all things that must be experienced and experienced, and once again feel how important ‘experience’ is.” And when shooting the scene where he climbed the monster’s corpse, he also relied on experience and imagination. : “I thought that the skin of a monster should look like this, and I climbed it carefully. A monster movie with a dead monster as an opponent is a rare experience. The content of the story is also reminiscent of a large-scale epidemic. , which subtly echoes the current era, and I think this is a work that conveys that “when we must face the problems that must be overcome, no one can do nothing.” Through this film, we can understand that defeating The “cleaning up” after the monster was unexpectedly troublesome and difficult. Talking about what he encountered was more difficult than expected, Yamada Ryosuke said without hesitation: “I think the work is very difficult, and I am working as an idol and an actor at the same time. Sometimes the period between the concert and the drama filming will be repeated, and I am still playing the role of a killer the day before, and the next day I have to sing and dance on the stage as an idol shining brightly, and it is very difficult for me to switch the switch.”
