Completion press conference of movie "Eien no Zero"

The completion press conference of new movie "Eien no Zero" was held on 22 July which was attended by the lead cast members V6's Okada Junichi and Miura Haruma. The movie which is due to be shown in Japan from 21 December, is based on the bestselling novel by Hyakuta Naoki which broke the 3-million mark in terms of shipment figures. Okada plays the role of Miyabe Kyuzo, a zero fighter plane pilot during World War II who had the reputation of being the most cowardly person in the navy and passed away just before the war ended. The cast had to spend 3 months from June 2012 at Kagoshima Prefecture's Amami Oshima for the filming where Okada had to shave his hair off for the first time in a role and said that he didn't have reservations about this. On the other hand, his co-star Miura commented that as he had appeared in some scenes together with the late Natsuyagi Isao in this film, he remarked that it was great to be able to spend time with him and he was touched to be able to see images of him during the event.
