[Reporter Liao Lihui/Reporting from Taipei] The movie "Dark City" is adapted from the award-winning mystery novel of the same name by Yonezawa Honobu. The famous director Kiyoshi Kurosawa personally wrote the script and directed it, and the super popular idol group Snow Man member Ryota Miyadate collaborated with Kiyoshi Kurosawa and many powerful seniors for the first time, and also gave his first experience at the Cannes Film Festival. Ryota Miyadate could not hide his nervousness and excitement and said: "Seeing this movie on the international stage fully demonstrates the splendid charm of Japanese film and culture. Although my ability is very small, I am really honored!"

Ryota Miyadate plays the role of Sukezaburo, the loyal minister of the city lord Araki Murashige (played by Masahiro Motoki). He possesses both calm observation and decisive action. When investigating various bizarre events that occur in the city, he always stays by Murashige's side to help him uncover the truth.

In the past, most of the characters played by Miyadate Ryota have distinctive personalities. The character Sukezaburo played this time is the complete opposite. He is an extremely innocent and frank character. Therefore, he must show that "unreserved sincerity" during his performance to convince the audience. Miyadate Ryota's delicate performance was also highly praised by "Castle Lord" Masahiro Motoki.

Ryota Miyadate happily shared the recognition he received from his senior: "This is what I received while filming this work. Although I am a bit embarrassed to say this in front of so many outstanding senior actors on the scene, Motoki-senpai once said to me: 'Miyadate is a chameleon actor!'"

Ryota Miyadate said that these words from his senior gave him the birth of a dream, and he determined to work hard to become a better actor. "When I encounter various works in the future and when I am seen by everyone, I will think about the meaning behind this sentence while trying to carve out my own path." "Dark City" is currently being screened in Taiwan.
