Gackt is finally off to Hollywood！
It was decided that Gackt plays in a Hollywood movie as an actor！ Snoot Entertainment company and Picturesque company started shooting a latest movie "BUNRAKU" staring Josh Hartnett（leading actor in "Pearl Harbor" (2001), the photograph left) and Demi Moore(leading actress in "ghost" (1990)). The some concerned with Hollywood film pay attention to Gackt who played the role of Kenshin Uesugi on the NHK TV saga "FU-RIN-KA-ZAN" last year. Guy Moshe who works for this scenario and the supervision of this work longed for Gackt as a partner of Josh Hartnett, the main charactor. The film director came to Japan himself and persuaded Gackt zealously to play in the film. His great zeal for Gackt touched his heart and made him decided to welcome the offer！
<Comment from Gackt>
I'm honored that my expression of the new Kenshin Uesugi image I played in a TV saga "FU-RIN-KA-ZAN" last year was addmited in the world. In the setting of the huge world in the near future, I was very interested in the role that could express Bushido spirit as a partner of Josh Hartnett, leading actor.
More than eles, a film director himself came over to Japan and showed his great zeal for my appearence in the film. His such sincere attitude impressed me a lot and I felt that they are much in need of me in the film. So, I gave my willing consent to his offer.
I want to prove my performance and expression will be accepted in the world among the big actors representing Hollywood. Please expect me and look forward to it. I'll go to accomplish a dream again.
