Full Trailer for Sion Sono's Manga Adaptation Sequel 'Shinjuku Swan II'

Written by

Time to meet the Shinjuku Swan. A full Japanese trailer has debuted for Sion Sono’s latest film, Shinjuku Swan II, a sequel to his first adaptation of a manga about an adult entertainment scout named Tatsuhiko Shiratori. Sion Sono is one of Japan’s best directors working today, behind films like Love Exposure, Why Don’t You Play in Hell? and Tokyo Tribe, though this film series hasn’t picked up any US distribution yet. Shinjuku Swan II stars Gou Ayano, Alice Hirose, Kippei Shiina, Yusuke Iseya, Motoki Fukami, Nobuaki Kaneko, Yu Yamada, Hideo Nakano, as well as Tadanobu Asano as the rival scout CEO that Tatsuhiko goes up against. This looks like some of Sono’s most commercial work, but might still be fun. ›››
