Sakamoto Haruya

  • Name: Sakamoto Haruya
  • Native name: 坂本晴哉
  • Also Known as: さかもと はるや
  • Nationality: Japanese
  • Gender: Male
  • Born: August 23, 1928
  • Age: 97
Stocky, imposing, and big-eared actor who rarely played anything other than a soldier, a policeman, or a samurai. He was apparently strong enough to share the role of King Ghidorah in Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster (1964) with Shoichi Hirose. He very rarely had speaking roles. Ironically, despite not having a “presence” in films, Sakamoto appeared in an astounding number of films during Toho’s golden age. Edit Biography
