Hiroyuki Sanada (真田 広之 Sanada Hiroyuki) is a Japanese actor. He began training with Sonny Chiba's Japanese Action Club . Originally aiming to be an action star, he developed good all-round martial arts ability.
He was first noticed as a serious actor in the movie "Mahjong hourouki" directed by Makoto Wada . Wada and Sanada's relationship is similar to that of John Huston and Humphrey Bogart and since then Sanada has acted in every one of Wada's movies. Those works are filled with a sense of humor and nostalgic attachment for classic movies.
