Filming of "Onna Nobunaga" underway in Shiga

Filming for the FujiTV drama SP "Onna Nobunaga" is underway at Hikone Castle in Shiga Prefecture. The cast members including Amami Yuki, Uchino Masaaki, Tamayama Tetsuji, Iseya Yuusuke, Nakamura Shido, Koyuki and Nagasawa Masami met the press in their costumes despite the sweltering heat and talked about their roles in the drama. Amami received a lot of praise from her co-stars about her impersonating as a male Oda Nobunaga and it has been years since she put on a moustache for her role in "Gone With The Wind" when she was still in the Takarazuka. Filming had begun since July.
The drama SP is based on the same titled novel by Naoki award winner Sato Kenichi where Oda Nobunaga is supposed to be a woman disguised as a man. Amami had read the novel when it was first published in 2006 and was very excited when she was offered the role. She will also be appearing in some intimate scenes with Uchino and Tamayama.
