Masahiro Higashide and Erika Karada are showing signs of “coming back” thanks to their “ex-wife, Anzu,” who has remained silent.

Masahiro Higashide’s name has been seen more and more often here.

On December 9, the movie in which he starred, “Ceiling Flowers – Tatsuji Miyoshi Sho,” was released and was well received.

The movie “Tobenai Fuusen” in which he also stars is scheduled to be released on New Year’s Day 2011, and TV commercials for the movie “Winny,” scheduled to be released in March, have begun.

There are also scattered magazine interviews, giving the impression that Higashide has begun to make a full-fledged effort to revive his career.

Recall that it will soon be two full years since “Shukan Bunshun” reported the affair between Higashide and Erika Karada. During that time, whether good or bad, there has been no break in the news about Higashide.

Immediately after the report of his hiatus, he was forced to cancel his commercials and refrain from acting as well. When his divorce from Anne was finalized in August 2008, the situation was settled and he began to show signs of recovery, but in October 2009, despite the COVID-19 crisis, he invited her to the location of a film he was starring in, which was being shot in a rural area. However, in October of the following year, Shukan Bunshun (Weekly Bunshun) again reported that he had invited her to the location of a movie he was starring in despite the Corona disaster.

As expected, his agency was furious and terminated his contract. In an interview, Higashide revealed his feelings at the time, saying that it was a very tough time for him.

He now lives deep in the mountains near the Kanto region, hunting. Whenever there is filming, he goes down to the mountains, but in spite of all the criticism he has received, he continues to appear in films one after another, and even in the lead roles. A film writer asked why.

According to a film writer, “As was the case when the affair was reported, there are several directors who are buying him and they are pushing him. Also, people who have worked with him say, “He’s a shitty guy, but you can’t hate him.

I heard that he even went to the set to get lunches for the staff and handed them out, and he is well liked by his co-stars and staff.

At the same time, some say that her acting has improved.
