Netflix Ties ‘Tokyo Swindlers’ Director Hitoshi One To Five-Year Deal


Netflix has signed 'Tokyo Swindlers' director Hitoshi One to an exclusive five-year deal.

“I was surprised at how quickly I responded, but I realized that I was drawn to the distribution medium, a genre that is not yet as established as film and TV dramas,” he added. Drama series Tokyo Swindlers follows a group of real estate scammers, who attempt to pull off a 10B yen scam without getting caught. One made his directorial debut in 2011 with the theatrical version of Moteki, which won the Japan Academy Award for Most Popular Title.
