Completion announcement event for movie "Watashi no Hawaii no Arukikata"

The completion announcement event for new movie "Watashi no Hawaii no Arukikata" was held at Hotel New Otani Tokyo's garden poolside on 4 June which was attended by the main cast members Eikura Nana, Takanashi Rin, Seto Koji and Kase Ryo. The love-comedy movie is scheduled to be shown in cinemas from 14 June and features Eikura as an editor who heads to Hawaii in search of new meaning in her life. Eikura mentioned that as the cast spent 1.5 months in Hawaii for the filming and went on beach strolls together, they became close friends so she suggested on the spot that they should get together again for a barbecue party which was met with enthusiastic responses from her co-stars. When asked about her dream type, Eikura responded that someone who suits the sun and can enjoy the activities in Hawaii with her would be nice.

Eikura Nana to star in new movie "Watashi no Hawaii no Arukikata"

Eikura Nana will be starring in the new movie "Watashi no Hawaii no Arukikata" (The way I walk in Hawaii) which is shot entirely on location in Hawaii. She plays the role of Oyamada Minori, a 26-year-old magazine editor who is asked by a friend to organise her after-wedding party in Hawaii. In order to prepare for the trip and party, she uses the excuse of doing a feature on Hawaii and heads off for her holiday. She then meets Yoshimura Akane (Takanashi Rin) who works as a coordinator in Hawaii and the two go on parties every night with the aim of searching for a rich man to marry. During one of these parties, they meet Kamata Tsutomu (Seto Koji), an entrepreneur who strives hard to achieve his dreams and has to cope with various difficulties, as well as Abe Tomoya (Kase Ryo), a rich man's son who loves nature and freedom.

Although Eikura had visited Hawaii before on holiday, this is the first time she is filming overseas so she's especially thrilled by this trip. Filming began on 10 September and the movie is expected to be shown in Japan from early summer 2014.
