"Beck" Rock Manga Gets Live-Action Film with Hiro Mizushima

Hiro Mizushima, the 25-year-old star of the manga-based "Absolute Boyfriend", "Hana Zakari no Kimitachi e: Ikemen Paradise", and "Lovely Complex" projects, will headline a live-action film adaptation of Harold Sakuishi's "Beck" rock-and-roll manga. The original manga portrays the lives of five members in a Japanese rock band on the rise, including the charismatic guitarist and band leader Ryusuke Minami (Mizushima). The original manga ended in Kodansha's Monthly Shonen Magazine last June in Japan, and 15 million copies of the 34 volumes have been published since it began in 1998.
