Iura Arata and Kubozuka Yosuke will work together for the first time in 11 years since their last collaboration in the movie "Ping Pong". This time, they will star in the movie "The Extreme Sukiyaki" which is due to be shown this autumn as friends who meet for the first time in 15 years. Iura will play the role of Douguchi who just quit being a salaryman and Kubozuka plays the role of Ookawa. Both men were friends during their university days and meet again after a long time. They suddenly have this idea of going to find a place to eat sukiyaki by the sea and rope in their university friend Kyoko (Ichikawa Mikako) and Ookawa's girlfriend Kaede (Kurashina Kana) to embark on the journey.
Iura and Kubozuka became close friends after working on "Ping Pong" and had been hoping to work together again. As such, when the offer came along, they were both thrilled at the chance and believes that their chemistry will show through this movie. Filming will begin on 22 January and is due to be completed by March.
