Riki Takeuchi

Riki Takeuchi is a Japanese actor and singer best known for his portrayal of tough guy characters and gangsters in both V-cinema and theatrically released films. He was born on January 4, 1964 in Saiki, Oita Prefecture.

Takeuchi is known for his intense, hot-headed persona which is fitting for most of his roles in high octane action films, but he’s not afraid to poke fun at his hard-earned image in television commercials and variety shows.
