Tokyo, Japan - Netflix announced the main trailer and teaser art and release date of Netflix series The Journalist, a series jointly planned and produced by Star Sands and Netflix .
The Netflix series The Journalist is scheduled for worldwide release only on Netflix in January 13,2022
The Journalist is an adaptation of the hit movie of the same name, The Journalist, released theatrically in 2019 which was a huge hit with audiences garnering a great deal of attention by confronting Japanese political crimes and scandals of recent years. With its shocking tackling of societal taboos, thrilling developments, and stylish visuals, the film won awards in three major categories at the 43rd Japan Academy Awards, including Best Picture of the Year, as well as many other film awards.
In The Journalist, we welcome Ryoko Yonekura (Doctor X, Legal V) to play the protagonist Anna Matsuda, a Toto Newspaper reporter known as the maverick of news media', who strives to expose issues in modern Japanese society.Michihito Fujii(The Journalist(film), Day and Night ) is set to direct this new series.
As additional cast members, Go Ayano ,RyuseiYokohama ,Hidetaka Yoshioka,Shinobu Terajima and the others have been announced.
While most reporters are quick to play nice with government officials for fear of losing special access to higher-up news sources, Anna Matsuda was not one of them. She took her duty as a journalist seriously, and never shied away from a story. When it becomes clear that the government is involved in a massive cover-up of some kind, Matsuda starts picking up the pieces to try and expose the truth. As the case unravels, we see how far, wide and deep officials go to craft their own version of the truth, using the media to suit their needs. Matsudas relentless dedication moves a handful who are privy to insider intel to speak up in an attempt to end the perverse cycle of misinformation and corruption.
