my first post in this forum, i really like her after watching orange days and right now i'm watching galileo.
i read here that she dated tsumaboki satoshi and then eventually broke up. maybe that's the reason why the filming for dororo 2 haven't started yet. i mean, there should be news about it if they are filming it already right? they said the release date would be around 2009 but it's already dec 2010 and we don't know if they are still gonna do the sequel or not.
anyhow, she's gonna be part of a new detective drama for spring 2011, can't wait!

Shibasaki Kou forms new musical group with DECO*27 and TeddyLoid
October 4, 2011
Actress and singer Shibasaki Kou has formed a new musical unit called galaxias!, consisting of herself, guitarist DECO*27, and music producer/DJ TeddyLoid. The trio will release their first mini-album (currently untitled) this November.
The 24-year-old DECO*27 got his start through the video site Nico Nico Douga a few years ago, and he achieved the most watched video on that site with more than 15 million views. Last year, Shibasaki was introduced to DECO*27 through her staff, with plans for her to write some lyrics for his album. They ended up working together on Shibasaki�fs single �gMukei Spirit�h which was released in February of this year.
TeddyLoid, who created a popular remix of �gMukei Spirit,�h is joining them as the group�fs DJ and sound producer. Currently 22, TeddyLoid started out as a solo act in 2008 when he was just 18 years old, and at the time he was chosen to be the main DJ for Miyavi�fs world tour. He has expanded his career since then, even providing music for the Gainax-produced anime series �gPanty & Stocking with Garterbelt.�h
galaxias! is described as having an electro sound, blending rock and dance music. The three artists were working on the album over the past few months, even while Shibasaki was in London for the filming of the �g47 Ronin�h movie.
The new group is said to not be temporary, but at this point there are no definite plans for how long the group will continue.

I saw Galileo again and I am reminded of how I love this girl. When I become famous and they make a biopic of me, I want Shibasaki Kou to get the role Haha.
I really loved her in SIGN. Now I am studying the violin and a bit of the Japanese sign language because I was kinda inspired by her role there

Kou Shibasaki to take on first drama leading role in 2015 NTV Winter drama
Shibasaki Kou will be taking on her first leading role in a drama series through the upcoming NTV Winter 2015 drama "Marumaru Tsuma" (XX-Wife) which begins its run from January 2015 in the Wednesdays 10pm timeslot. She will play the role of a mysterious wife supporting her husband played by Higashiyama Noriyuki who is a newscaster and the scriptwriter of this drama will be Yukawa Kazuhiko who was behind the success of hit drama "Kaseifu no Mita" in 2011.
Shibasaki's character Hikari is the wife of Yasuda Masazumi (Higashiyama) who is a popular newscaster and goes all out to support her husband in every way. She is great at household chores and is able to make her husband look good in front of others. However, there is a secret between them thus explaining why the title doesn't explain what kind of wife she is and that will be explained in the first episode. Filming for the entire drama had been completed.
Shibasaki commented in an interview that her roles so far had been more focused on the emotional side of things but this time, she had to deal with a huge volume of lines so it was a fresh challenge for her. Besides, there was a constant struggle between emotions and common sense in the story which made it a tough battle up till filming was completed. Despite the fact that Shibasaki has been the lead in many movies to date, this is surprisingly her first leading role in a drama series. However, she has never thought much about this because she doesn't think of movies and dramas as totally separate things. It was also great this time that she got lots of support from the people around her and it was good that they didn't have to film as the drama is airing so it took off a fair bit of the pressure. As for her first time playing a housewife, Shibasaki admitted that she was looking forward to becoming a housewife one day when she was young but she doesn't feel the same way now.

On August 25, NHK announced that actress Shibasaki Kou will star in the 2017 Taiga drama 'Onna Joushu Naotora'. This will be her first lead role in a NHK drama.
Shibasaki commented, "This is the first time I've heard about Naotora. From now on, I want to search for her appeal, and grasp it. I am delighted to be offered the role of a person who is both elegant and strong. I believe that it will be a wonderful work filled with spirit, as well as lessons that would become hints for the present day. I will do my best in order to do that."
During the Sengoku Period, there was a woman who ruled as lord of her clan. Her name was Ii Naotora. After every battle, the head of the Ii family would be killed, which eventually left Naotora in charge. The upcoming Taiga drama will portray the drastic events in Naotora's lifetime.
On choosing Shibasaki for the lead role, production supervisor Okamoto Yukie said, "She is an unusual actress who possesses both the strength and beauty of a tiger. I believe she will cause an excitement through the Taiga drama."
The script will be written by Morishita Yoshiko, who also wrote the script for 'Gouchisousan'.
'Onna Joushu Naotora' will begin its broadcast in January of 2017 and will run for a one-year period. Filming is scheduled to start in August of 2016.
