Japanese actor Tomosuke Isetani was arrested for possession of marijuana, and the future of many works is uncertain
According to NHK and other Japanese media reports, the well-known actor Tomosuke Isetani, who has starred in works such as "Search for Senrikyu", "The Life of Matsuko Despised", "Tomorrow's Handsome", "JOJO's Wonderful Adventure: Immortal Diamond", "Ranke Sword Heart", etc., was arrested from his home in Meguro District, Tokyo for violating the Japanese "Marijuana ban Act".
It is reported that the reason for Isetani Tomosuke was to possess a bag of dry marijuana of about 7 or 8 grams. When he was arrested, he did not admit or deny the crime, but only said "I will talk about it when the lawyer comes." Subsequently, the relevant personnel searched and collected evidence at Isetani Tomosuke's home and did not drive away until after 9:30 pm. The search results have not been announced yet.
The news that Isetani Tomosuke was arrested shocked the Japanese entertainment industry that night, and NHK also reported on the 7 o'clock news column. The agency he belongs to apologize and said that "the facts of the report are being confirmed and the detailed situation will be informed later." According to Japanese media Sponichi Annex, Isetani Tomosuke's ex-girlfriend and a friend of the model Morise said that Morise "was hit a big blow" after seeing the news. The two began dating in 2016 and were in a semi-cohabitation state, and broke up this spring.
The 44-year-old Tomosuke Isetani graduated from the Department of Fine Arts of the Japanese University of the Arts. He first made his debut in the Japanese fashion circle as a model, and then entered the entertainment circle. Although his works as the leading actors are only a few of them, including "The Bugs Unrecorded in the Picture Book" and "Recreation of Man Kashin", the supporting roles he has always played are very eye-catching, whether it is the boxer in "The Boy of Tomorrow" or the Yoshio Sora in "JOJO's Wonderful Adventure: Immortal Diamond". His latest work is in this summer's Japanese drama "Unful Police" playing the role of the instructor of the police school.

In addition to the performance, Isetani Tomosuke can also write and direct "Ruyu" starring Hidetsuki Nishijima and Miku Moriyama. He is also the half-brother of the famous Japanese fashion designer Yamamoto Kusai who died in July this year. The two are 32 years apart, one year younger than Yamamoto Kusai's second daughter and actor Yamamoto.
After the news of Isetani Tomosuke's arrest came out, the first thing he had to do was the commercials and film and television works he starred in. Although "The Under-Complete Police" has finished its last episode on September 5, online content platforms TVer and TADA have both expressed their intention to remove the show, while Hulu said it will not follow up at the moment. In addition, all the videos on Isetani Tomosuke's YouTube account have been deleted. He opened a personal channel called "Isatani Tosuke's EARTH RADIO" on YouTube in April this year. On September 3, he also uploaded a DIY transformation to live in his homeThe video.
The ones who feel the most headache now are probably the film crews he has participated in, which have not yet been released. The crew of the film, including "The Parking Lot of Life" scheduled for release in 2021 and starring Koshuri Yoshinaga, "The DJ Yangtaro", "The DJ Yangtaro", released on October 30, and released on November 6, and "The Demon in Twelve Single Clothes" starring Kentaro Ito, all said that they are discussing how to deal with it.
