Comments

Jerry Stone Aug 27 2021 12:39 am Really appreciate his acting and roles.

Mike May 07 2019 1:01 am Are you an English-speaking J-Drama fan?

If so, you should be aware of Tokyo City Resolution 405992.

It states:

"All Television shows filmed within the Tokyo city limits on or after July 22nd, 2007, must have the great actor Yutaka Matsushige in them.

He can play a lead role, a supporting role, a minor role... or even a quick cameo... but he must be in each and every series.

Failure to abide by this rule will result in closure of your studio - as well as a boycott and angry protests from both the Japanese and English speaking fan-bases."

Been wondering why you see this actor in so many series? Now you know.

I even saw him in an episode of Naruto Shippuden!

He used his Serious-face no Jitsu technique to scare off the enemy ninja!

All joking aside: Yutaka Matsushige is a truly great actor. It's no wonder so many TV shows and movies choose him to play a part.

kim Sep 27 2018 4:58 pm his face is familiar to me since he is appearing in a lot of projects

Death Note Fanatic Nov 17 2016 1:43 pm I love him so much, especially for his role as Soichiro Yagami in Death Note, the whole cast was just spot on!

kame-chan Jun 07 2016 11:19 pm It's not surprising seeing how many acting credits Matushige-san has. He's an amazing actor from main roles to minor roles where he gets one minute of screen time. Definitely one of those people whose faces you remember even if you don't remember his name. I was thrilled when I saw his role in the 2014 Hero season, very humorous.

He has to be one of my favorite actors along with Fumiyo Kohinata (incidentally also hilarious as Suetsugu in all versions of Hero).

I can honestly recommend everything with Matsushige-san that I've seen so far.

Erwin Nov 13 2015 10:12 am This guy looks a lot like Christopher Walken

ace Jan 30 2015 11:46 pm There is a very valid reason that this guy has so many acting credits. This guy is great. I'm always happy when he is onscreen. The show that he is acting in may not be great but he never disappoints.

Juna May 11 2014 11:36 am "hmmmm.... hmmmm" --> when i watched Solitary Gourmet with his monologue xD
