Daigo, one half of the comedy duo Chidori, is executive producer of THE ONE SHOT, which he calls a comedy production battle that combines film and comedy. He selected eight comedians who will write and direct short films over three months, following one rule: put exactly one joke in the work.
In the interview, Daigo said that when Disney approached him, he wanted to ask them what was going on with Disney Plus. He also shared his definition of a joke as a mistake that does not anger people. He hinted at future developments, saying to ask him again next year for a better answer.
THE ONE SHOT starts streaming worldwide on Disney Plus on August 12, excluding some regions.
