Shoichiro Nishigaki (西垣匠一郎, born May 26, 1999) better known by the stagename Sho Nishigaki (西垣 匠), is a Japanese actor. He is managed by Toho Entertainment.

Career

[edit]

In 2019, during Nishigaki's second-year in university, he was recommended by a friend to compete in the "Mister Keio Contest" and Nishigaki was able to win the grand prize.[1][2] After that, he was scouted by several entertainment agencies, but at the time he didn't know anything about acting, so he only took their business cards but didn't take their offers.[1]

However, later on, Nishigaki became interested in the idea of possibly appearing on television and decided to take professional acting lessons as a trainee at an entertainment agency for a year, but unfortunately, he was unsuccessful in getting any roles.[3]

After Nishigaki was unable to land any roles and was about to refrain from pursuing his aspirations in acting, he was scouted by his current manager and he was signed with Toho Entertainment.[2]

In 2021, Nishigaki made his acting debut in the live-action television adaptation of the manga Captivated, by You.[4]
