Did everyone hear about Sakurai Sho's new movie?? He's going to be in a movie (originally a manga) that's called "Hachimitsu to Clover" (Honey and Clover)!! It's going to be his first individual acting. He's going to play the main character boy named Yuuta. I have this article where it talks about it if anyone wants me to translate!

櫻井翔が美大生になる！初の映画単独主演
Sakurai Sho becomes a college student in his first independantly starring movie!

It is understood that on the 24th, Sakurai (23) of the popular group, Arashi, will be starring in the movie for the first time alone. It is based on cartoonist Chika Umino's popular comic"Honey and clover", having the same name as the original, about five men and women's love stories of youth that develop at a college. All five people dealing with the circumstances of unrequited love, and Sakurai performs as college student, Takemoto Yuuta, who has an awkward social position. The producer explains his appointment of Sho by saying that "The character is naive and worries, and even looks like him". Even Sakurai is enthusiastic, "We thought that we can create a work where the spirit and pain of gentle love in youth is experienced". Aoi Yuu (20), Iseya Yusuke (29) Kase Ryo (30), and Seki Megumi (19) are to unfold the love pattern with Sakurai. CM director Masahiro Takada (41) picks up the megaphone for the first time. It seems like it will become a refreshing romance movie by a fresh personnel. Opening to the public scheduled for next summer.

[missatralissa.livejournal.com]

it's about five college students and their relationships.

i've only seen the anime, so i'm not sure if the manga is exactly the same, but i'm pretty sure it is.

it's a really cute show, it has a simple plot, and yet for me it's really addicting. XD

i can't wait to see Sho-kun as Takemoto!!
