Takenouchi Yutaka will be taking the lead role in a new movie titled "Nishino Yukihiko no Koi to Bouken" (The Love and Adventure of Nishino Yukihiko) which is due to be shown in Japan next February. The movie which is based on the 2003 same-titled short stories compilation novel by Akutagawa Award winner Kawakami Hiromi, features Takenouchi as the lead character Nishino Yukihiko who is described as a hard-to-come-by handsome man who treats women well and is great at work and sex but somehow always gets dumped by the women he dates. 7 actresses in their teens to 50s will be Nishino's love interests in the movie including Ono Machiko who is his superior at work and dates him secretly, his female neighbours Narumi Riko and Kimura Fumino, Honda Tsubasa as his ex-girlfriend, Asou Kumiko as the married woman he was having an affair with 10 years ago, Nakamura Yuriko as Asou's teenage daughter and Agawa Sawako as a housewife who falls for Nishino after meeting him at cooking school. Filming will last till the end of this month.
Takenouchi said that he tried to understand from the women around him on what it meant to be the perfect man in order to play Nishino and expressed his joy at being surrounded by so many beautiful actresses during the filming. There was a scene where he and Ono had to film a bed scene but the director kept asking them to make it look more intense than what they had rehearsed so Ono and he had to make sure that the scene would not cause the movie to earn a R-15 rating while making sure they met the director's requirement.
