Kimutaku's upcoming fall 2011 drama

Kimura Takuya will be starring in a new drama series on TBS this upcoming fall season. This drama will be part of TBS' celebration of its 60th anniversary so it is rumored to be the biggest budget drama the station has put into production. Filming begins in February and is said to then go on for about half a year, hence the early announcement of the series and its cast.

The drama is based on a book about a Japanese research team that was working up in Antarctica but had to leave their station there when the weather turned for the worse. They also had to leave their Huskies, which they believed had little chance of survival yet when they returned about a year later they found two of the dogs still alive.
