Broadcaster NTV will be airing a 2-night "Shakespeare Series" drama special this spring. The series will adapt "Romeo & Juliet" and "King Lear" to modern times.
In the "Romeo & Juliet" adaptation, idol Hideaki Takizawa will play a garbage collector whose father (Shinji Yamashita) becomes a murder suspect, while popular actress Masami Nagasawa plays the daughter of the detective (Tomokazu Miura) involved in the case.
