Fairouz Ai and Junichi Suwabe have been selected as the main cast for the Japanese version of this work! We have received comments of joy from the two, who are appearing in the series for the first time.
This film is set approximately 100 years before “The Phantom Menace,” which celebrates its 25th anniversary this year. During the Golden Age, when there were many Jedi in the galaxy, during the Age of Light, when there was no war and peace, one day, one Jedi was suddenly killed. The story depicts the intertwining of many lightsabers and the mystery of the birth of the “dark side” that creeps into the galaxy.
Fairouz Ai will be the voice actor for the main character, Mei, who is drawn to this disturbing mystery and gets caught up in the battle.
Fairouz expressed his joy when he was chosen to appear in this work, saying, “I felt a lot of pressure and was happy to be able to work on a historical series and be entrusted with the role of an important character!” I spoke.
Also, “Mei has an unpretentious personality and appears easy-going, but at the same time she has complex emotions, such as hiding her own past and feelings, so I wanted to be able to express her feelings in a way that is close to her feelings.” I’ll do my best. Look forward to it!” , she says, expressing her enthusiasm for playing the role of Mei, the mysterious protagonist who attacks the Jedi, the guardians of justice who control the Force, with just two daggers.
What is the darkness of the galaxy that was born during the era of the series’ oldest series, “The High Republic,” and what is Mei’s fate?
In addition, in this work, actor Lee Jeong-jae, who became the first Asian to win the Emmy Award for Best Actor after starring in the hit Korean drama “Squid Game,” will be portrayed as an intelligent and powerful actor. He plays the role of Sol, a Jedi Master who has the power of the Force and commands respect, but who also has internal conflicts.
The Japanese voice actor for Sol is Junichi Suwabe. Mr. Suwabe said, “It’s truly an honor to be involved in the Star Wars series, which has many fans around the world.What’s more, I will be in charge of the Japanese dubbing for Sol, who is a Jedi! When I heard the results, I felt like my blood was boiling,” he said, expressing his joy at participating in a Star Wars production for the first time.
Mr. Suwabe further added, “For those who have lived their lives without seeing Star Wars, I think this work will be a good starting point.There will be an endless amount of fun ahead. I’ll be waiting for you, so please check it out!” , he wrote, inviting the world to join in the excitement of Star Wars.
