The production team of the upcoming Detective Conan movie has announced the first guest voice actor. Actor Ryusei Yokohama will portray a character named Kazuaki Omae in the 29th film of the franchise. The character he voices is an automotive engineer responsible for developing a new motorcycle model for the police.
The team explained their choice of the artist by citing his versatile acting range and his current prominence in the entertainment industry. For Yokohama, this role marks his first professional work as a voice actor. Prior to the recordings, he visited the sound recordings of the ongoing TV series. There, he was impressed by the voice actors' ability to convey remarkable emotional depth solely through their voices.
During his own recording session in the studio, he had already fully internalized his lines. While working, he also received personal direction from Minami Takayama, the voice actress of the main character Conan. The guest voice actor concluded by stating that he put all his skill into the role.
An announcement regarding another guest star is expected soon. The film is scheduled to premiere in Japanese theaters in April.
