Yakusho Replaces Bruce Willis
April 24th, 2006 by Shogo!
One of the best Japanese actors of today Kouji Yakusho (Shall We Dance?, Memoirs of Geisha, he is one of a few Japanese actually played Japanese among Chinese cast. He is a dude in middle) is now providing his voice for an anime project for the first time. He will be one of many actors in Japan to over dub Over The Hedge by Dreamworks. He will be replacing Bruce Willis for voice of whatever his characters name is. Yakusho has done quite lot of works lately (starred in one of the biggest hit of last Holiday season, Uchouten Hotel, and Hollywood film Geisha. I think he is making wise decisions to cross over all the borders. He will be making appearance at Cannes film festival this year.
