Kumiko Takeda photo book release

Overview

Japanese model and actress Kumiko Takeda is releasing a new photo book titled ‘Sango’, published by Kodansha. This project marks her first major photo book in approximately 23 years.

Inspired by a conversation in San Diego and shot in Okinawa, the book features Takeda at age 57 and 58. She chose a coral theme to evolve her image beyond her previous ‘shell bikini’ persona. Takeda noted that her return to such projects follows her daughter reaching adulthood, allowing her more personal time.

During a press conference in Tokyo, Takeda expressed her intention to expand her professional activities in Japan, including roles in dramas, films, and variety shows. She also shared her interest in collaborating with various actors and reuniting with former co-stars.
