Hiroshi Abe's Weight Loss Tied to 'Happy List' Role
Hiroshi Abe's slimmer appearance at promotional events for VIVANT season two drew fan speculation. On September 17, the poster for his film Happy List was released, showing him emaciated as Taro Egawa, a man who returns to society after 40 years in a psychiatric hospital. The film, co-starring Ren Nagase, opens February 5, 2027. Abe said he tried to respond honestly to what Taro sees now rather than assume he understood the 40 years.
