5 Actors Who Could Totally Play Jin in The Ghost of Tsushima Movie

David Sakurai

Danish/Japanese actor David Sakurai is right on the cusp of being a little too old to play the role of Jin at 41, but his talent as an actor, appearance, and skills as a martial artist means we still see him as a top choice.

After a tenure in Japan during the early portion of his career, Sakurai moved back to Scandinavia and performed in a number of roles across action, comedy, and drama.

Western audiences are likely to remember him from Fantastic Beasts, in which he played Krall. Also, more recently, Colonel Saito in The Man in the High Castle.

Sakurai is fluent in both English and Japanese, too, which may prove important depending on which direction Sony takes the script.
