Morimoto Shintarou to star in a movie

Yet another sign that Johnny's probably has a lot planned for Morimoto Shintarou, he has been selected to star in a movie, titled Little Country. It has already begun filming and will be released in theaters in Japan sometime in 2009.

In the Japanese article it mentions how rare it is for Juniors to get roles like this and then lists the ones that have, all which have since debuted. Shintarou is one of the Juniors that I'm pretty sure will eventually debut as he has gotten a lot of focus, kinda like how Nakajima Yuto got a lot of focus when he was Junior. I just hope he doesn't become a giraffe like Yuto did. (laugh) But yea, back to my point, I really think when it comes to a debut for Shintarou it's more a when than if for him, unless he messes things up with a scandal.

Also, if you're lucky enough to be living in Japan there's an open casting call for extras for the movie that Tegoshi is filming for, Nakushita Kioku. You can find more information about it at the casting company's site.
