Kiyoshi Kurosawa's 'Cure', Daisuke Miura's 'Boys on the Run' and Amir Naderi's
'Cut' to studio productions such as 'Red Shadow', 'Someday' and 'Godzilla
2000'. Recently Denden has been in many popular productions such as a main role
in the exceedingly popular TV series 'Moteki', plus starring in many Sion Sono
films such as 'Be Sure to Share', 'Cold Fish', 'Himizu' and the upcoming 'Land
