Kaiji live action movie in the works
Watarase Film Commission has put up a notice on their site announcing that they are recruiting 70 extras for a Kaiji live action movie to appear in the restricted rock paper scissors game on the Espoir. The director for the movie is Gokusen director Satou Touya.
Fujiwara Tatsuya who starred as Light Yagami in the Death Note movie will be playing the role of Kaiji (what!?).

The guy in the Akagi movie looks kind of like Kaiji, way more than Fujiwara does…

Will they make their noses as sharp as knives

wtf
a failure of a Kaiji in my opinion

I’ll lol if they all actually don prosthetic noses to mimic the sharp-looking ones in the anime/manga series.

Lol Fujiwara Tasuya, he better lose some weight first.

If they’ll remake the disappointing ending, I’m in!

i’d rather have the guy that played Krauser

Kaiji in live action? Why? WHY? Just make us more anime.

Failure by default.

I think Tatsuya Fujiwara will do a good job, it pulls him out of his element of crazy rolls into soething sort of grounded…
But they’re are other actors that could have played the lead, Tatuysa isnt really tall enough…

Why not just make an anime film centred about Kaiji’s past?
