The long-awaited second season of the American drama "Westworld" has finally arrived.
I believe that many viewers are already eager to try to brush up.
The first season of 2016, an episode of god!
Making "Westworld" one of the hottest American dramas of the year, it can be said to have made a splash at major awards ceremonies.
As for the plot, after the robot awakening at the end of the first season.
The direction of the plot also naturally touched the hearts of many viewers.
The plot direction of the second season is completely different from the first one.
The worldview of the whole story will unfold outward.
After the first episode aired, it ended up with a Douban score of 9.3 and imdb: 9.2 points, and the second season of Rotten Tomatoes "Westworld" surpassed the 88% freshness of the first season with a freshness of 94%.
Overall, this second season lived up to expectations and beat the first season.
In addition to innovating in the plot.
The cast of the second season of "Westworld" has also added many familiar Asian faces.
For example, Japanese actors Hiroyuki Sanada and Rinko Kikuchi.
I believe this is also to get more attention from Asian audiences.
Do you all think that Little Black is going to give you the second season of Amway Westworld today?
Hey, I'm sorry to disappoint you.
I'm actually going to talk to you today about the Japanese actress who participated in the second season of "Westworld": Kikuchi Rinko.
Maybe just by looking at the name and stills, many people have a confused expression.
Who is she? Is she famous?
In fact, there is nothing special about her.
He is nothing more than the only actor in Japan to be nominated for an Oscar in the past fifty years.
He was praised by the authoritative American magazine "Variety" as "one of the top ten most watched actors in 2007." ＂
So who is she?
She is the mute woman Chie in the "Tower of Babel".
She is the frigid son of the "Norwegian Forest".
She is the one who saves the earth in the first part of "Pacific Rim" and the one who receives a bento at the beginning of the second part.
She is also currently the most popular Japanese actress in Hollywood.
Some people also say that Kikuchi's status in Japan is similar to that of "Zhang Ziyi", revealing an international style everywhere.
Indeed, she is one of Japan's most international superstars.
People's usual style is like this!
For those who don't know Kikuchi Rinko, they think she is like the shape of Mako in "Pacific Rim".
Everywhere reveals a capable, intellectual, mature feminine temperament.
But this is not the case.
In life she behaved obediently and maverickly.
She often said: "I don't want to die in a boring life!" ＂
Since her debut, her temper is also notoriously strange.
Her real name is "Yuriko", but she doesn't think it's cool to be too gentle.
Therefore, he decisively changed his name to "Rinzi".
(I guess there should be a high person to give her the idea, change the name will be fire!) ）
Kikuchi, who debuted as a model at the age of 15, was a good resource at the time.
While many of the little models are still struggling with how to get into position, Kikuchi has begun to shift her goals, and she is inspired to become an actress.
After that, she had her first work as an actress, "The Desire to Be Born".
At that time, Kikuchi had just turned eighteen.
Since then, she has also starred in a number of films, but there has been no better development.
It wasn't until 2006's "Babel Tower" that she went from obscurity to a world superstar overnight.
The protagonists in the film are all Hollywood's first-line celebrities.
They are all movie-quality actors like Brad Pitt and Kate Blanchett, but Kikuchi is the only actor in the film to be nominated for an Oscar.
"Keiko", played by Kikuchi Rinko in "Babel Tower", suffered suicide by her mother in her early years.
Coupled with the fact that it is puberty, sexual repression has nowhere to release, and it is inevitable to make a lot of out-of-the-ordinary alternative behaviors.
The role of "Keiko" can be said to be full of challenges for Kikuchi Rinko.
The first is that the character is set to be a deaf and mute person, and the sign language is particularly good.
This was a great test for the actor's ability to learn, but Kikuchi spent a year learning sign language and finally got her license as a sign language teacher.
This is the key reason why she has been able to stand out from the crowd of auditions.
Secondly, there is the age gap between the character and the person.
A 26-year-old woman starred as a 16-year-old girl, and she couldn't see the flaws at all.
The face full of collagen makes the audience exclaim.
And this "Babel Tower" is also famous for various large-scale dramas.
Among them, Kikuchi Rinko contributed a scene that made people's hearts beat faster.
Imagine a girl standing naked on a rooftop overlooking the city.
How much courage it takes for the actors to have.
Naked body is not nothing, Kikuchi Rinko is still boldly naked in the film.
She played the "extravagant" behavior of the high school girls in the spring of Sichun to three points.
However, her "hard work" performance did not win recognition.
Because of these bold performances, many people say that Kikuchi Rinko is "one off to fame".
After the film was released, many Japanese media criticized her bottomless nakedness as offensive.
In the face of the pressure of public opinion, Kikuchi Rinko not only did not compromise, but began to fight back with his own strength.
In her words: the actors themselves have to make some sacrifices for the ups and downs of the plot! Nudity is just a way of expression, and she doesn't mind being naked on the screen!
If you think about it, people are indeed right, and actors will inevitably encounter this situation.
Is it necessary to delete these scenes in all film and television drama works?
Not to mention that there are many Hollywood actresses who are "off the hook", like: Anne Hathaway, Angelina Jolie, Daenery Lee Richards, etc.
Since you have chosen to be an actor, you must be prepared for this.
Kikuchi also practiced this view in her later acting career.
Not only in film and television dramas, Kikuchi Rinko will also show her body as an attitude in fashion shooting.
In the process of shooting fashion magazines, she was naked and had no scruples.
She and Lady Gaga share a common stylist.
Many of her photos had to be coded to see.
As the darling of the fashion industry, her sometimes styling combinations can really make people thunderous.
She once appeared on the red carpet wearing a kimono with a mohawk head.
This outfit feels spicy and weird no matter how you look at it!
However, it attracted the attention of Carl Lagerfeld.
As a result, Kikuchi became one of the wildest girls in Chanel.
This cooperation has been more than ten years.
Looking back at Kikuchi's career as an artist, it is most appropriate to summarize it in one sentence.
The harder you work, the luckier you get!
She can learn sign language for a year for a role.
She can fly to any location for a role.
For a role, she can withstand the pressure of public opinion without changing her original intention.
Let me ask you, what is the reason why such an actor is not successful!?
Kikuchi Rinko exchanged her own practical actions for her own achievements.
In life, Kikuchi is also a lucky and happy woman.
On January 1, 2015, actor Someya Shota issued a statement in the early hours of the morning.
(It is the little monk Kukai in "The Legend of the Demon Cat")
He said that he and 33-year-old Kikuchi Rinko had registered marriage, and now the two have their own children and live happily.
A woman can have both her favorite career and the company of her family.
Then she is the real winner in life.
It is clear that Kikuchi has done this through her own efforts.
