Kazunari Ninomiya

Kazunari Ninomiya, or Nino, is the rare idol whose acting I rate as highly as his music. A member of Arashi who could also hold the screen in Letters from Iwo Jima opposite a Hollywood production, he has a remarkable economy in his eyes; he says more with a glance than most actors do with a monologue. At 168 cm he is compact but loaded with range, moving easily between singing, voice work, stage and radio, where his dry wit shines. He should be a jack-of-all-trades who masters none, yet he masters them all. I am eager to see his next move.
