Matsumoto Jun & Ueno Juri in romance movie "Hidamari no Kanojo"

Arashi's Matsumoto Jun and Ueno Juri will be working together for the first time in the romance movie "Hidamari no Kanojo" due to be shown in cinemas next October. This will be Matsumoto's first movie in 5 years since 2008's "Hana Yori Dango Final" and Ueno's first in 3 years since "Nodama Cantabile Saishugakusho Kohen". The movie is based on the same-titled novel by Koshigaya Osamu which has sold about 350,000 copies to date and features Matsumoto as Kosuke, a newbie sales department employee at an advertising agency who specialises in advertisements placed in railway stations and trains. He reunites with his junior high school friend Mao (Ueno) when they meet again through work and they start dating. Just when they are about to get married, Kosuke finds out a sad secret about Mao which threatens to jeopardise their relationship. Filming will begin in mid January 2013.
