Miyazawa, Mizukawa to play Ueno’s sisters in “Gou”

Posted by HPriest on April - 12 - 2010

As announced in January, NHK's 2011 taiga drama will be "Gou ~Himetachi no Sengoku~," starring actress Juri Ueno (23). On Monday, two more key cast members were revealed: Rie Miyazawa (37) and Asami Mizukawa (26).

 

Ueno plays the role of Gou (also known as Oeyo), the third daughter of the 16th century daimyo Azai Nagamasa (who married Oda Nobunaga's sister Oichi-no-kata). Gou and her two older sisters are famous historical figures. The eldest, Yodo (also known as Chacha), will be played by Miyazawa, while the second sister, Hatsu, will be played by Mizukawa.

 

Filming for "Gou" is scheduled to start this August. For Miyazawa, this will be her first work in a television drama since she gave birth to her first child in May 2009.
