15-year-old Japanese-American singer Kylee will provide her first movie theme song for the Hans Canosa film “Dareka ga Watashi ni Kiss wo Shita,” which stars Maki Horikita (21) and Kenichi Matsuyama (24). In addition to singing, Kylee is also making her acting debut in the film.

Kylee, who hails from Arizona, first gained fame in 2005 when she sang the national anthem at an NBA game. In 2008, she debuted in Japan with the single “VACANCY,” and in 2009 she became the youngest artist ever to perform at the Summer Sonic music festival.

Canosa saw Kylee perform last year when he visited Japan for the movie, and he is said to have noticed Kylee’s ability for acting as well. He immediately gave the singer a role as an underclassman at the international high school where the story takes place. Kylee’s song “Kimi ga Iru Kara” will be used as the film’s theme song, and another song by her will be used during the film. “Kimi ga Iru Kara” will go on sale as a single on March 24.

The movie, also known by the earlier working title “Nakushita Kioku,” is an adaptation of Gabrielle Zevin’s novel “Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac.” Horikita plays a high school student who loses part of her memory in an accident. In addition to Matsuyama, NEWS member Yuya Tegoshi (22) and American actor Anton Yelchin (20) have been cast. The film opens in theaters on March 27.

Interview:

1. Interviewer – Please, tell me why you decided to work on this film?
Ken’ichi – Well, I’ve never had the chance to work with a foreign director, so I thought it would be very interesting. Hans Canosa also directed Conversations With Other Woman (2005 film) and used never before seen techniques. I want to be significant and able to do things in a new way. We’re also interested in whether how this is directed will work and I wanted to be helpful and adjust.

Japanese studio Toei has pre-sold US-Japan co-production Memoirs Of A Teenage Amnesiac to Hong Kong distributor Golden Scene.

Directed by New York-based filmmaker Hans Canosa, the film revolves around a girl at an international school in Tokyo who loses four years of memory after an accident.

It stars Japans hottest heartthrob, Kenichi Matsuyama, and Maki Horikita who shot to stardom with her performance in blockbuster Always: Sunset On Third Street 2. US actor Anton Yelchin and Yuya Tegoshi, a member of J-pop group News, round out the cast.

Filmed in both the US and Japan, the film is a co-production between the directors own production outfit, Canosa Productions, and a Japanese production committee. Around 40% of the dialogue is in English and the rest in Japanese.

Canosa was winner of the special jury prize at the Tokyo “International Film Festival” in 2005 for Conversations With Other Women.

Memoirs Of A Teenage Amnesiac will be released into theatres March 27, 2010!
