I didn’t think at all that Returns would continue. When I heard that it was going to be a movie, rather than feeling like oh the loneliness has ended, it was more like an “Again eh” sort of feeling (*laugh*). But, the only reason that it’s being made into a movie is because of everyone’s support. I’m really grateful. This time for the movie version, it’ll be wonderful because we will power-up the HanaDan world. The development in the story, being HanaDan, you won’t know what will happen till the very end but after you’ve watched it you will say something like “Aaah it was fun !” and you become uplifted, and receive courage, I think that’s the kind of work it’s going to turn out to be.
Hong Kong, Las Vegas… there was all this filming abroad, so please look forward to it !

◎ Matsumoto Jun (Doumyouji Tsukasa) comment
1 and 2 was on television but Final being made into a movie, we want to make the best possible work we can during the making of the Hana Yori Dango world, this is what everyone is working on during filming. This time, there are things like actions scenes, we’ve ventured abroad to Hong Kong and Las Vegas for filming abroad. There are also many difficult scenes. There’s more than 3 or 4 turning points in the movie. There was a lot of jostling.
It’s really fun, I think it’s a going to be a movie with a lot of warm feelings. You’ll definitely want to watch it in the big screen of the theater ne. “Just as expected, it’s not satisfying to just watch it on tv” that kind of thought. I think it’s going to be the kind of movie that would make you glad you got on your feet and head to the theater to watch properly !

◎ Oguri Shun (Hanazawa Rui) comment
It’s the first time I’ve been to Hong Kong. We received such an ardent welcome at the airport. Being so close to th fans, I relished it. The fans called out “Oguri”. Now in Tokyo, I’m playing a totally different role, so returning to a Hanazawa kind of role, I felt a little anxious but when I heard the 5 of us were getting together again after HYD2, “Unexpected !” that’s the kind of feeling, then it turned to a sort of relief. In addition, when the 5 of us first got together in Hong Kong, it felt nostalgic. Final is going to have a thoroughly celebrity-like air, it’s going to feel like that ne. HYD1, HYD 2 and to turn to Final, I think there is a good feeling of scale in the progression.

◎ Matsuda Shouta (Nishikado Soujiroh) comment
When I read the scenario for Final, the scale was so much bigger, I thought it wasn’t HanaDan anymore. Known from the Hana Yori Dango name, F4 and Tsukushi are going to come out with a brand new production.
Although it was a familiar cast and staff, it felt like we’re working on something new during the crank-in and I felt nervous. But coming to Hong Kong was something fresh. When it comes to establishing the role, I felt it many times in Hong Kong. Of course, this is natural but for me, I keep thinking “Wow, it’s Hong Kong!” it was a really fresh kind of feeling.

◎ Abe Tsuyoshi (Mimasaka Akira) comment
On the first day of filming in Hong Kong, because Mimasaka had an opportunity to be involved in a big action scene, the Hong Kong staff in charge of the action scene said it was definitely going to be a Hong Kong kind of scene. “This is really HanaDan isn’t it ?” that’s what it turned out though (*laugh*)
This is the first time we’re filming handling guns. We really used real guns you know. It was really heavy, and the sound it made was amazing. Using real ammo, it popped out from the side after use. I think it’s not often that you get to be in the same drama together twice, what more being able to make a movie together. I’m happy and it’s fun. It’s like the feeling you get when you go back to your parent’s house after a long while.
