The TBS drama series “Ikemen Desu ne,” which is a remake of the Korean series “You're Beautiful,” will have a stage version in Japan this fall. The cast will change, but like the television version of “Ikemen Desu ne,” the play will feature three Johnny’s artists, including two from Kis-My-Ft2.

In the drama version, the members of the fictional boy band A.N.JELL are played by Kis-My-Ft2 members Tamamori Yuta and Fujigaya Taisuke, Hey! Say! JUMP member Yaotome Hikaru, and actress Takimoto Miori.

For the stage version, Kis-My-Ft2′s Kitayama Hiromitsu will replace Tamamori as the band leader Ren, while fellow member Miyata Toshiya will replace Yaotome as Yuki. Uchi Hiroki will take over Fujigaya’s role as Shu. Takahata Mitsuki will replace Takimoto, playing the double role of vocalist Mio and the twin sister who takes his place.

Performances at the Akasaka ACT Theater in Tokyo are scheduled for October 8-20. Performances will also be held in Yokohama, Osaka, Fukuoka.
