Delivering new TBS titles on Netflix. October drama "Japan Sinks" and "Future Diary" etc.

TBS TV and Netflix will jointly deliver three new titles. In addition to distributing the drama "Japan Sinks-People of Hope-", which started broadcasting on October 10, on Netflix, Netflix original programs using TBS variety and IP will be distributed.

We will open up new markets by utilizing TBS's diverse IP content and program production capabilities, including dramas and variety shows, in collaboration with Netflix. The aim is to go beyond the boundaries of broadcasting and deliver attractive entertainment content to the world at large.

As the first step, the Sunday theater "Japan Sinks-People of Hope-" starring Shun Oguri, which will start broadcasting from 9 o'clock on October 10, will be broadcast on Netflix at 24:00 on the same day (3 of the start of terrestrial broadcasting). It will be distributed worldwide every week from (after hours).

"Japan Sinks" was made into a TV drama on TBS the year after the original work by Sakyo Komatsu was published, but this time, TBS made a big arrangement to the original work and clearly set out environmental problems in light of the present. It is said that it will be developed as. As a story that should be drawn now, the characters of the original characters including the main character are arranged and visualized in Tokyo in 2023. With actors such as Shun Oguri, Kenichi Matsuyama, Kyou, Toru Nakamura, and Teruyuki Kagawa, he draws a human drama of those who find "hope" in the midst of a tremendous crisis in Japan.

The second is "Future Diary," a love reality project that was born from a variety show on TBS about 20 years ago and became a social phenomenon. Update to the modern version as a Netflix original show and reboot. It will be exclusively distributed worldwide from December.

The third is the Netflix series "Let's get divorced" co-written by screenwriter Kankuro Miyato and Shizuka Oishi and produced by Aki Isoyama (TBS Sparkle). It is scheduled to be exclusively distributed worldwide in 2023. It's a sitcom where couples who can't get divorced immediately due to their own circumstances, although their feelings are cold, unite and work toward the unwavering goal of "divorce."

Am I the only one who thinks it's working really well so far? Co-writing with my senior, Mr. Oishi, is really fun and learning. How do you write it? Is it Fujiko Fujio style or boiled egg style? I won't tell you because it's a waste. I think that this line is like Mr. Oishi, I think it's Miyato, I think it's here Miyato, and I think it's Mr. Oishi. There are probably places where they don't mesh with each other, but that's what a married couple is like, and if Mr. Isoyama had foreseen that much, it would be true.

A novel project in which the story of a couple heading for divorce is written separately by a male and female scriptwriter, and the first broadcast drama, I want to finish the race happily until the end.

I'm still not sure what kind of idea I thought to form with Mr. Miyato, but I'm still not sure what Isoyama P was aiming for, but I thought he was the best scriptwriter of the time, and I was looking at him from a distance. The feeling of excitement that there is is wonderful.

But what you are doing is the same as usual. I think that the unmanageableness of life that a couple does not like is that of Mr. Miyato, that of me, and the sadness of the viewers, so while giving a glimpse of each individuality. I wish I could draw something funny ...

Believe that people all over the world will enjoy it!
