TBS, a major Japanese TV network, will air its Sunday Drama “Caster”, a completely original story starring Hiroshi Abe, every Sunday at 9:00 pm. NON will make a guest appearance in the third episode, airing on April 27, 2025.
The truth is what makes the world go round!
Soichi Shindo (Hiroshi Abe), a man who believes that “the truth is what makes the world go round!”, spent 15 years as a reporter in the society department of a public broadcasting company and then as an anchor of a news program, but was recruited by Yoshio Kunisada (Hideki Takahashi), chairman of JBN, a commercial TV station, to become the main anchor of “News Gate”, a news program suffering from low viewership ratings. He became the main anchor of “News Gate,” a news program suffering from low viewer ratings. Shindo's mission is to correct the lukewarm news reporting system, and he boldly states that he has come here to correct the program. He does not choose any means to “tell the truth” and does not care about existing rules as he conducts interviews and investigations based on his own rules. He is an unconventional and unprecedented man whose overwhelming presence engulfs everyone around him and brings a new wind to the Sunday theater!

■Comment from NON
I will be appearing in the Sunday theater production of “Castor”. It has been a delightful and exciting time. I was thrilled by the storyline, which gave me hope while approaching reality. I was very happy to be able to work with Hiroshi Abe for the first time in about 12 years. I had worked with Director Kanai when he was an assistant director and I couldn't even carry a tray in my acting! Please come and see “Caster” created by the wonderful cast and crew.
