Nounen Reina to star in movie adaptation of shoujo manga "Hot Road"

Nounen Reina will be starring in the movie adaptation of shoujo manga "Hot Road" as reported on 16 October. The manga which consists of 4 volumes and had been serialised in Bessatsu Magaret from 1986, boasts of sales totaling 7 million copies and features Nounen as Miyaichi Kazuki, a 14-year-old teenager who is isolated by her own family and falls for Haruyama Hiroshi, the leader of a motorcycle gang. Kazuki will have her fair share of brushes with the law too e.g. being caught for shoplifting and her hair will be blonde so it will be an entirely different image for Nounen who shot to fame in the NHK morning drama "Ama-chan". Filming begins in November this year and will be completed by April 2014. The movie is scheduled to be shown in cinemas from summer 2014.
