The Hiroyuki Sanadaissance continues with Hiroyuki Sanada joining John Wick: Chapter 4
Hiroyuki Sanada from Mortal Kombat, Avengers: Endgame, and Westworld is taking on Keanu Reeves

If Hiroyuki Sanada isn’t a household name, he certainly should be at this point. He’s been in so many big movies and big TV shows that he’s basically a one-man franchise, and if he stays at the pace he’s been holding for the past few years, he could someday threaten Samuel L. Jackson’s title as the highest-grossing actor in Hollywood. Sanada played rich guy Bly Tanaka in Army Of The Dead, he played Scorpion in Mortal Kombat, he played robot samurai Musashi in Westworld, he played Akihiko (the yakuza boss who gets killed by Ronin/Hawkeye) in Avengers: Endgame, he played Shingen in The Wolverine, Dogen on Lost, Oishi in 47 Ronin, Mr. Musha in Speed Racer, Kaneda in Sunshine, Ujio in The Last Samurai, he’ll be in Brad Pitt’s Bullet Train, and also he had recurring roles on shows like The Last Ship and Extant. And that’s not even counting the decades of big roles in Japanese movies like The Twilight Samurai and Ringu! We’re saying the man fucking works, and when he works he usually plays characters who tear shit up.
