Kamen Rider Black Sun announced as 50 Years of Kamen Rider is celebrated today!

 



One of the most popular iterations of Kamen Rider who hails from the Showa era is getting the reboot treatment he deserves, as the official Kamen Rider Web website has announced "Kamen Rider Black Sun" - the reincarnation of Kamen Rider Black and a new series that will debut in 2022! This is to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of Kamen Rider - which began with the original Kamen Rider in 1976 as played by the legendary Hiroshi Fujioka!

Here's the press release from Kamen Rider Web.

Kamen Rider (original work by Shotaro Ishinomori) was first broadcast on TV Asahi affiliates in 1971. For half a century, from the original Showa Era series through Kamen Rider Saber, the second series of the Reiwa Era, successive incarnations of the Masked Rider superhero have entertained viewers of all ages. 

Now, in 2021, the Kamen Rider series marks its 50th anniversary. Commemorating this 50th Anniversary milestone, a remake of the highly popular Kamen Rider Black series has been announced. A new interpretation of a story steeped in the pathos of the hero’s harsh fate, Kamen Rider Black returns to the screen after a hiatus of more than 30 years, reincarnated as Kamen Rider Black Sun. 

Commissioned for the logo, calligrapher Souun Takeda has created a powerful image that embodies the heroic worldview of the new series. 

Named as director for this project is master filmmaker Kazuya Shiraishi, known for hit films including Kyoaku and The Blood of Wolves. Inspired by the Kamen Rider Black series released in 1987, Shiraishi will adopt an innovative perspective for his all-new interpretation of the legendary hero, Kamen Rider BLACK SUN.
Also, the official TOEI Tokusatsu YouTube channel has uploaded the first episode of Kamen Rider Black in full! Watch it for Nostalgia and see the original Kamen Rider Black/ Minami Kotaro as played by Tetsuo Kurata!


Kamen Rider Black Sun will debut some time in Spring 2022! Happy 50th Anniversary, Kamen Rider! HENSHIN!!!
