■Hiroshi Tate’s full coverage
・About appearing in a Fuji TV drama series for the first time in 30 years
It’s been 30 years…!? When I read the script, I thought it was very dramatic and interesting, so I really wanted to do it, so I accepted. (Thirty years ago, “Ue o Muite Arukou!”) This was my first “Geki 9”, starring Hikaru Nishida and myself. I was playing the role of a baseball player, but I remember being a little unsure of myself as I had never played baseball. I was playing the role of a former ace with the most wins many times over, so I remember how he managed to get through it. In addition to this work, I have fond memories of Fuji TV, and “The True Story of Building Blocks – That Family, the Tragedy That Followed” in 2005 still leaves a strong impression on me. It was such an amazing job that I felt like I had memorized the lines for the first time (on set) (lol). I remember being told by the producer many times, “You are not allowed to put your hands in your pockets.” I wonder why? Even though I thought that, I tried to do exactly what I was told. It was a role that gradually got worse and worse, but I find it very rewarding. Regarding this drama, I think it is very interesting that SDM (Special Disaster Management Headquarters) is a unique organization that is not bound to the system. I think it’s difficult to film just by reading the script, but if it’s done right, I’m sure it will be a great drama. I’m excited.
・ About Sonobe Sonobe, who plays the role
This work as a whole has many lines that seem to emphasize discipline, but among them are characters who look at things from a slightly oblique angle. For that reason, I hope I can speak in a slightly rougher way when using the prop of reading glasses. I am consulting with the directors, but I would like to take on the challenge of putting on and taking off my reading glasses. I wonder if I can do it well (lol). The pastor may be more relaxed than you imagine. Please take that into account and enjoy.
・ My impression of Tomohisa Yamashita, who co-starred with me for the first time
This is the first time I have co-starred with him, so I watched the drama that aired until recently, and I think he has a special talent and is a great actor. I hope I can help Yamashita-kun out of the way and make him look really nice.
・ Message to viewers looking forward to the broadcast
I don’t know how far I will go with it, but when I read the script, I thought it would be a drama on a scale that had not been seen before. I don’t know how it will turn out yet, but I’m looking forward to it myself, so please look forward to it with me.
■Comments by producer Yuki Takada (Fuji TV Film/Drama Production Department).
Joichi Sonobe will befriend Haruhara, with Haruhara struggling in the field and Sonobe working at the center to officially implement SDM. The absolute requirement was to be an actor who would be picturesque to fight alongside Mr. Yamashita, and I wanted Haruhara to be sincere, while Sonobe, who also has flexibility, should also be light and witty. Then, on the bus on my way home from an elementary school field trip, I heard “Dangerous Detective” and was shocked, thinking, “How interesting and cool!” I became a drama fan, and I thought, ` “Mr. Tate is the only one…” I visited you personally. I am very pleased that you have returned to our drama series for the first time in 30 years. In addition, Mr. Tate himself is dedicated to disaster recovery aid, and I feel that this is a critical cast in that regard. Looking forward to Mr. Tate, who is so dignified and cool that you can’t help but think, “I wish we had a politician like him!”
