Ryusei Ryo Joins Office Nino, Co-Starring With Kazunari Ninomiya In VIVANT
Office Nino signing an actor who is already sharing a drama with its founder turns a working relationship into a company roster, which is a different kind of commitment than a single co-starring credit.
Reporting from 1 source: Cinema Today.
Ryusei Ryo will join Kazunari Ninomiya's personal agency Office Nino, the company announced on the 1st. The two currently co-star in the TBS Sunday drama VIVANT, where Ryusei plays Koutaro Shinjo, a former public security officer acting as a monitor for the terrorist organization Tent, opposite Ninomiya as Nokor.
Office Nino released a comment welcoming Ryusei Ryo as a new member, saying the company hopes to walk together with everyone while taking on various challenges. Ryusei's own statement framed the move as forward motion rather than stability: he said he wants to take on scenery he has never seen, and called it a new start not to protect but to attack.
Ryusei's credits include the tokusatsu drama Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger, the serial TV novels Hiyokko and Chimudondon, and the films Grand Blue, Yowamushi Pedal, and Last Mile. He was born on March 24, 1993, and is from Tokyo.
