Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties‘ director Ryosuke Horii has addressed the controversial casting of actor Teruyuki Kagawa in the remake, which has resulted in fan backlash due to a 2022 report from Shukan Shincho detailing sexual assault allegations against the actor. Kagawa apologised at the time, but didn’t specify what he was apologising for or confirm the events reported in Shukan Shincho’s article.
