"Season 20 of "Buddy" will start this fall, and this work is also a partner, Mr. Sorimachi. It is said that he will appear until the movie version scheduled to be released in '23, which will be filmed next year."
"This fall, the "Matchmaking" series ushered in its 20th season. This time, the partner is also anti-machi. Filming is expected to begin the following year, "the theatrical version that will be released in 23 years, he seems to have also decided to star." (TV Asahi)
The criminal drama "Buddy" (TV Asahi) starring Yutaka Mizutani (68). It's a popular series that lasts for 20 years, but Takashi Sorimachi, 47, who is set to be the fourth-generation partner in eight seasons and two films, is expected to surpass the first Yasufumi Terawaki (59) for the longest time ever.
Mizutani (68) starred in the criminal investigation drama "Soba" (TV Asahi). It is a popular series that lasted for 20 years, participated in eight episodes and two movies, and served as the fourth generation of partners, Takashi Antimachi (47), surpassing the original generation of Yasufumi Teradaki (59), and is expected to be the longest participating time among the previous generations of partners.
It is said that the reason why it became such a long term is that Sonmachi is more than a business partner for Mizutani.
For such a long time, Mizutani has been more than a working partner.
"Mr. Soimachi was anyway "Mizutani First", and when I went to the countryside on location, I looked up delicious shops and took them out for meals. At the yakiniku restaurant, you can also share the meat with Mr. Mizutani. Also, during the break of shooting, I sit next to him and check out current affairs and mizutani's doubts with my smartphone and teach it" (production person)
"Anti-town is 'Mizutani first' in any case." If it is an external shooting, it will look for a good restaurant in advance and take it with you to dinner. In the yakiniku restaurant, you will also help Mizutani divide the meat into small pieces... In addition, during the shooting break, I will sit next to him, whether it is current affairs materials or mizutani has doubts, Anti-Machi will use his mobile phone to check and tell him. (Production related personnel)
They are dating all over their families.
Such two people will also bring their families together.
"Before Corona, we sometimes had dinner parties with each other's families, both of which are fathers with daughters, so as daddy friends, we sometimes consult about our worries. It seems that it is said to Ran Ito (66) and his daughter Shuri (30) that the sled fits only in Sorimachi."
"Before the epidemic, both sides would occasionally bring their respective families to dinner." Because their children are daughters, relatives and friends who are also fathers will also talk to each other about their troubles. It turned out that 'I only had a good conversation with Anti-Machi,' according to Ito Ranji (66) and daughter Kirito (30). (Pre-production and production related personnel)
He is also 70 years old next year. The draw seems to be beginning to be planned, too.
Such a water valley will also turn 70 next year. It seems that the plan is beginning to fade.
"Absolute condition" that Mizutani could not yield to the continuation throw
"Absolute conditions" for continuing to shoot Mizutani can not be backed down
"Buddy is broadcast two cool in a year, so it's very hard physically, and the production side considered the burden on Mizutani-san, and I thought that 70-year-old was one break. We are planning to confirm whether Mizutani-san will be able to continue to pitch when the filming scheduled for next year is over."
"Because "XiangBang" is broadcast twice a year, it is very difficult physically. Considering the burden on Mizutani, the producers planned to end at the age of 70. Next year, when the film is finished, we will confirm with Mizutani whether we can continue shooting. ((Personnel related to TV Asahi in the early stage)
At that time, there is a condition that it is not possible to give in to Mizutani by all means.
At that time, Mizutani should have the conditions to stick to no matter what.
"It's "That Mr. Sorimachi continues to serve as a partner", Mizutani-san says, 'Sleds are the best', so in the past, the bureau had listed the next candidates, such as yukie (41) and Goro Inagaki (47), but in the last few years he abandoned it. In effect, it has been decided that Mr. Soramachi will continue to be a partner until the end, and it depends on Mr. Mizutani's physical condition and feelings how long "Buddy" will continue."
"That's 'Indo-machi continues to play the role of partner'." Because Mizutani said, "It's so nice to talk," and although the TV station has also selected Yuki Nakama (41) and Goro Inagaki (47) as candidates in the past, they have also given up on them in recent years. In fact, deciding how long "Somo" can continue to be a partner until the end depends on Mizutani's physical condition and mood. (Personnel related to TV Asahi in the early stage)
Mizutani has played Ukyo for more than 20 years. In an interview with MANTANWEB in October 2020,
Played Mizutani Uyoko for more than 20 consecutive years. In an interview with Mantanweb in October 2020, he said,
I want to stop (Ukyo) before I die (laughs). Even if I don't think about it forcibly, I'm doing it while thinking that it will come naturally someday. I haven't decided how long at all.
"I want to quit acting (Ukyo) before I die. I just don't have to think about it, I just think that the day will come, and I think and do it. There is absolutely no decision on when to do it. ”
How many years later will Mizutani and Sorimachi complete their "Buddy"?
