Shinoda Mariko to appear in new movie "Vigilante" as a scheming wife

Shinoda Mariko will be appearing in the new movie "Vigilante" directed by Irie Yu which will be shown in cinemas from 9 December. Filming has been in progress since January this year and is expected to wrap up in July.

The movie is set in Fukaya City, Saitama Prefecture which is Irie's hometown and is an original script written by him. The three actors Oomori Nao, Suzuki Kosuke and Kiritani Kenta will play brothers where the eldest Ichiro (Oomori) disappeared since senior high while Jiro (Suzuki) owns a printing company and is the chief of the local vigilance committee and Saburo (Kiritani) manages a prostitution business. Due to the death of their father who they detested, the trio reunite thus setting off a chain of events which will turn their lives upside down. Shinoda will play the role of Jiro's wife Shindo Miki who appears to be a virtuous wife on the surface but has a sly character and uses her good looks to twist men around her little finger. She treats Jiro like her child and manipulates him to get power and the inheritance left behind by her father-in-law.

As Shinoda is acting in a Irie movie for the first time, she revealed that when she first read the script, she was very shocked and enthralled by the story. She views this as a new challenge in her acting career and hopes that everyone will enjoy watching the movie when it is released in cinemas.
