He followed up on the small screen in Japan's first sitcom, HR, as a bleached-blond rebel who spooks his night-school classmates with insinuations of underworld connections, and orders pizza delivered to class. Two more movies are on the way, including one in which he plays the lead singer in a struggling rock group?a familiar role for Shido...
