NEWS: The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim Film Streams Featurette Video With Behind-the-S

I was very surprised when I received an offer to play Shank in "The Lord of the Rings: The Battle of Rohan" via SMS. Since I had been away from acting and voice acting for a long time, I thought it was definitely spam (laughs).

"The Hobbit Pippin that I played before was a lovable character, but this time I'm playing the ferocious orc Shank. I'm excited about the opportunity to try a completely different role in the same world line.

During the recording of the first trilogy, researchers of Elvish languages ​​were also involved in providing guidance, and I still vividly remember the entire staff taking on the challenge of creating a fantasy world with such sincerity.

I am truly honored to be a part of Director Kamiyama's new spin on such a beloved story and the epic adventure he will tell from his unique perspective.

The cast features an all-star cast of voice actors, including Nakamura Yuichi as King Helm's nephew, Frealaf, Sakamoto Maaya as Éowyn, Ono Atsushi as Wolf's father, Freca, Morikawa Toshiyuki as King Helm's first prince, Hareth, Irino Miyu as the second prince, Hama, Yamadera Koichi as Freca's loyal right-hand man, General Targ, Sawada Toshiko as the old Pennycrook, Otsuka Yoshitada as King Helm's aide, Lord Thorn, Iizumi Masataka as the ferocious orc Shank, and Katsube Enyuki as the wizard Saruman.
