Kimura Takuya in new spring 2009 drama, "MR.BRAIN"

Kimura Takuya will be starring in the new TBS drama, "MR.BRAIN" for the upcoming spring 2009 season. This drama will be shown from 23 May onwards at 7.56pm on Saturdays. Kimura plays an expert in neurology who works in the police force's science research institute and helps to solve difficult cases with his knowledge. This will be the first time that Kimura is playing a neurologist.

In the drama, Kimura's character attains an extraordinary talent in investigative thinking and imagination after he suffers a head injury. Coupled with the fact that he is always curious about things and is the type to be fully absorbed in his interests, he is regarded as a weirdo by the people around him. According to Kimura, this may be the weirdest role he has taken so far.

This drama also marks the first time that Kimura is appearing in a time slot other than FujiTV's Gekku and TBS's Sunday 9pm slots. He hopes that with this new time slot, he will be able to attract attention from all age groups.
