Jō Odagiri (小田切 譲 Odagiri Jō, born February 16, 1976), better known by his stage name Joe Odagiri (オダギリ ジョー Odagiri Jō) is a Japanese actor and musician. South China Morning Post described him as "a rebel, something made evident by his grungy, gothic style".[1]

Career

Odagiri co-starred with Zhang Ziyi in Seijun Suzuki's Princess Raccoon,[2] with Tadanobu Asano and Tatsuya Fuji in Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Bright Future,[3] with Ryo Kase in Lee Sang-il's Scrap Heaven,[4] and with Jang Dong-gun in Kang Je-gyu's My Way.[5]

Personal life

Odagiri Joe was born in Tsuyama, Okayama prefecture. Though he was accepted by Kochi University, he turned it down for an opportunity to study in the United States. He had originally intended to study film directing at California State University, Fresno, but mistakes in the application process landed him in acting classes.[12] He often says that Fresno is his second homeland.[13]

On December 27, 2007, at a news conference in Tokyo, Odagiri announced his engagement to actress Yuu Kashii, who is exactly 11 years younger than him. [14] Together they have two children. On April 24, 2015, Odagiri's youngest son died due to intestinal ileus. [15]
