Ryohei Suzuki (鈴木 亮平, Suzuki Ryōhei; born March 29, 1983 in Nishinomiya, Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan)[2] is a Japanese actor who is represented by the talent agency Horipro.

Early life and studies

Suzuki became interested in learning English after a visit to an uncle, who was living in Los Angeles when he was in Elementary school.[3]

He and his brother went to the YMCA when he was in elementary school. While in the third year of junior high school, he participated in a YMCA program in Nishinomiya City. Words from a teacher in the YMCA remained in him, motivating him to study hard, taking his English classes seriously.[3]

While in the second and third years of junior high school, he did short-term homestays (one to two-week periods) in the United States and Australia. He then went to study abroad for one year, to rural Oklahoma, United States, while he was in high school.[3] According to a comment on a TV program, Suzuki's reason to go abroad to study, was his first love.[4]

He graduated from Tokyo University of Foreign Studies with a Bachelor's degree in English studies in March 2006.[3]

He also became interested in German, after "falling in love with a German girl", as he said in a program.[4] He won Dokkyo University's National High School German Speech Contest in 2000.[5]

When he was a student, he worked part-time in NHK.[6]

Career

Ryohei earned five Best Supporting Actor awards as well as the Japan Academy Prize for playing the role of a yakuza in The Blood of Wolves: Level 2 (2021).[7] That same year, he earned Best Actor at the Asian Contents Awards in Korea for his role in Tokyo MER (2022).[8] Its sequel film was released in 2023.[9]

In 2023, he starred in Egoist, an independent feature about a same-sex relationship.[10] Suzuki's performance earned him the Rising Star Award at the New York Asian Film Festival[11] and a nomination for Best Actor at the Asian Film Awards in Hong Kong.[12]

Ryohei Suzuki played a role in the Netflix film City Hunter (2024), an action adaptation of 1980s manga.[13] He earned both the Best Leading Actor and Best Comedy Performance awards at the Asian Academy Creative Awards in Singapore.[14] Additionally, City Hunter won Best Feature at the same awards.[15]

Private life

Suzuki announce his marriage to a non-celebrity woman who works for a web-related company in Tokyo, via his agency on July 28, 2011. He met her while he was a model. The wedding ceremony and reception were held on July 24 at a hotel in Tokyo with only close relatives.[16] They welcomed their first child, a girl, on November 17, 2011, at a hospital in Tokyo. He reported this the same day on his official blog.[17]
