Spy x Family Musical Unveils More Cast Members

By Evan Valentine

Japan has proved its love for all things anime over the decades, not just by producing new franchises at a breakneck pace, but by producing works that often don't make their way to other countries. Such is the case when it comes to live-action stage plays, as numerous properties have made their way to these unique productions including My Hero Academia, Naruto, Yu Yu Hakusho, and countless others. Now, Spy x Family is set to receive not only a stage play but said performance will also be a musical.     

Typically, for Japanese musicals such as this one, the main characters might be played by two actors, with Loid and Yor, aka Twilight and the Thorn Princess, set to be played by Win Morisaki and Mikazuki Munechika for the former and Fuka Yuzuki and Mirei Sasaki for the latter. With the latest additions to the cast, it would seem that the musical, which will be arriving next March in Japan, will be following the story of the anime's first cours.

Yuri Briar, Yor's brother and agent of the state, will be played by both Okamiya Raimu and Tsubasa Takizawa. Fiona Frost will be played by actor Nonoka Yamaguchi. Loid's eccentric friend Frankie Franklin will be played by Kento Kiuchi. The head of Eden College, Henry Henderson, will be played by Soma Suzuki. Finally, Twilight's boss Sylvia Sherwood will be played by Morning Summer Manato. As of yet, the play has not cast one of the most important roles in Anya though the official website does state that the audition process is underway. 

Twitter Outlet WSJ Manga compiled how each of these actors will look in their respective roles when Spy x Family's musical arrives in March of next year:

The previous release for Spy x Family's musical cast included:

  • Yuri Briar: Kurumu Okamiya / Tsubasa Takizawa
  • Fiona Frost: Nonoka Yamaguchi
  • Franky Franklin: Kento Kiuchi
  • Henry Henderson: Souma Suzuki
  • Sylvia Sherwood: Manato Asaka
  • Dominic: Kazuya Naraki

Surprisingly, another major anime franchise is currently working on a new live-action musical production as Attack on Titan is looking to release a new play in the future, but considering its dark subject material, it will be interesting to see the final product.
