Act Plus Promotion Launches New Talent Agency MALUNE Featuring Hikaru Kawabata

Act Plus Promotion Unveils MALUNE: A Groundbreaking Talent Agency

On April 18, 2023, Act Plus Promotion officially launched MALUNE, a new entertainment brand dedicated to nurturing and empowering talented performers. This innovative agency aims to create an environment where artists can thrive authentically while adapting to the ever-changing landscape of the entertainment industry.

The Birth of MALUNE

The conception of MALUNE stems from Act Plus Promotion's extensive experience within the entertainment world. The company has witnessed numerous captivating performers whose talents deserve greater recognition. Thus, the founders felt it was essential to establish a platform where these individuals can express themselves naturally and gain the trust of their audience. The mission of MALUNE revolves around fostering a space where actors can challenge themselves while remaining true to their identities.

Unique Features of MALUNE

MALUNE sets itself apart from conventional talent agencies by embracing a new vision for actors. The agency focuses on individual charm and reliability, catering to traditional media avenues such as television, film, and theater, while also promoting talent on modern platforms, including social media and global channels. By engaging closely with the lives of each actor, MALUNE aims for personalized management that maximizes their potential. The long-term goal is to evolve into a pivotal entertainment platform that connects Japanese talent with the global stage.

Diverse Talent Development

MALUNE is ready to welcome a wide array of talents, including actors, models, influencers, and creators, offering tailored training and management to each artist. Under the guidance of accomplished directors with a history of successful productions, MALUNE is committed to providing hands-on acting coaching and immersive training programs that prepare talent for immediate industry success. The agency aspires to be a trusted starting point where new-age performers can take flight and realize their dreams.

Introducing Hikaru Kawabata

Among the first talents associated with MALUNE is the rising star Hikaru Kawabata. Now 26 years old, Kawabata has been active in the performing arts since joining the Harvest Theater Company in 2011. With numerous film and television credits to her name—such as her roles in "Dr. Koto Clinic" (2022) and the upcoming series "Private Banker" (2025)—Kawabata's presence adds immense value to the new agency.

Kawabata expressed her thoughts on joining MALUNE, stating: "MALUNE embodies the idea of expressing oneself in a natural way, based on trust. As I step forward, I hope to grow not just as an actor but as a person filled with depth."

Future Prospects for MALUNE

The vision for MALUNE extends beyond traditional actor representation. Plans include utilizing their official website and social media, supplemented by collaborations with media partners, to provide a platform that transcends existing entertainment boundaries. Expect engaging content to bridge the gap between talent and fans through events and various interactive experiences.

As MALUNE continues to embrace diversity, it remains committed to discovering fresh talent while building a reputable brand in the entertainment industry. With strong leadership and an innovative approach, MALUNE is poised to redefine the spectrum of talent representation, both domestically and internationally.
