The official website for Boku no Hero Academia the Movie 2: Heroes:Rising revealed the cast for two movie-original characters on Thursday. Manga author Kouhei Horikoshi provided the character designs and is supervising the production.
Yoshio Inoue, an actor known primarily for his work in musicals who previously voiced Eiji Nochizawa in Sword Art Online Movie: Ordinal Scale, will play the villain Nine. Actress and model Mio Imada (Hana Nochi Hare: HanaDan Next Season live-action) features as Nine's follower, Slice, whose Quirk allows her to use her hair as a blade. Nine and Slice will chase after Tomura Shigaraki in the film and attack the island of Nabutou, though at the moment their motives are unclear.
Boku no Hero Academia the Movie 2: Heroes:Rising is directed by Kenji Nagasaki and produced by studio Bones. It premieres in Japan on December 20.
