Gintama Live-action Film Opens Part-timer Recruitment

Have a go at being the bird character Elizabeth on June 18 for the preliminary showcase of the live-action film “Gintama” as a recruitment call has been made for anyone willing to act as the mysterious cosmic creature.

For those whom may not be that familiar the series, “Gintama” is a comedy sci-fi that was created by Hideaki Sorachi in 2003. It tells of a world where during the Edo period, aliens invaded the earth and while the samurais attempted to battled against them, the emperor surrenders in fear. This results in not only in a ban against the public carrying of a sword but in the Shogunate becoming a puppet government.

The focus of this story is on an eccentric samurai named Gintoki Sakata a.k.a. Odd Jobs Gin. By helping Shinpachi Shimura save his sister Tae and Kagura from the clutches of the aliens who wished to use her as a weapon, the three end up forming a group called “Yorozuya” a.k.a. “We do everything” or literally “The Anything Store.”
