Sei Hiraizumi
Sei Hiraizumi (平泉 成), born on June 2, 1944 in the former town of Nukata, Aichi Prefecture, Japan, is a veteran Japanese actor whose career spans more than six decades. He entered the entertainment world in 1964 when he signed with the historic Daiei Film company, marking the beginning of a prolific journey that would see him transition from supporting roles in period pieces to memorable appearances in contemporary cinema and television. Throughout the 1970s and early 1980s, Hiraizumi became a familiar face on Japanese television, frequently cast as a guest villain in an array of jidaigeki (historical drama) and detective series, showcasing his versatility and knack for delivering nuanced antagonistic performances. His film debut came with the cult classic The Snake Girl and the Silver‑Haired Witch in 1968, and he later diversified his portfolio with roles in films such as Like a Rolling Stone (1994) and the critically acclaimed Shin Godzilla (2016), where he portrayed Yūsuke Satomi, cementing his reputation as a dependable character actor. In recent years, Hiraizumi has continued to attract attention for his work in high‑profile projects, starring as Koichi Matsudo in the L: Change the World spin‑off and taking on parts in Osaka Tough Guys and the ambitious historical epic 189 (2021). His extensive filmography, which also includes Soul at Twenty, My Small Land, and upcoming titles such as Tomorrow in the Finder (2024) and Eikou no Bakkuhomu (2025), illustrates a remarkable ability to adapt to evolving cinematic trends while maintaining a strong presence on screen. Beyond his on‑screen achievements, Hiraizumi’s enduring dedication to his craft has made him a respected figure among peers and a recognizable name for Japanese audiences, reflecting a career built on consistency, depth, and an unwavering commitment to storytelling.
