Snow Man Idol Group Ready to Play Sextuplets in Mr. Osomatsu Live-Action!

Dealing with a set of sextuplets, each with their own distinct and chaotic personalities, is not an easy task at all, but it is hilarious to watch from afar. Mr. Osomatsu is a series that brings this concept to life.

The credit for the Matsuno brothers’ immaculate comic timing goes to their eccentric personalities. They weirdly complement each other, creating an amusing atmosphere. 

To all those who can’t get enough of this franchise, get ready for its live-action version. Something tells me that the live-action version is going to be even more haywire.

Yes, Mr. Osomatsu has announced its first-ever live-action film for Spring 2022. The Japanese idol group Snow Man will be playing the lead roles of the Matsuno brothers.

Additionally, the franchise has also revealed some original characters for the upcoming live-action, and I cannot wait to see what these characters have in store.

The idol group also revealed a special 20-minute long video celebrating the film’s announcement.

The video shows the idol group playing some games while discussing the film and the characters they will be playing.

Since the series has always been a classic comedy, there is nothing much to speculate about. Yet, I just can’t imagine how a cool idol group will act in this hilarious series!

Although, I do have my doubts about a live-action. Comedy in anime is mostly from the art style and the characters’ expressions, most of which cannot be recreated in real life. 

Will the cast be able to do justice to the classic? Will they be able to bring them to life and be as hilarious as the anime or the manga?

Only time can reveal these, till then, why not binge on the anime?

About Mr. Osomatsu

Mr. Osomatsu is a 2015 Japanese comedy anime television series by Pierrot, based on Fujio Akatsuka’s 1962 manga series, Osomatsu-kun.

The original manga and “high tension comedy” TV anime centered on the Matsuno household, which has six naughty and mischievous sons (who are sextuplets).

All of the sextuplets, including the eldest Osomatsu, are all in love with the same girl, Totoko.

The original series followed the family when the sons were 10 years old. The new series, titled Osomatsu-san, will be the first television anime in 27 years, and it follows the characters after they’ve become adults.
