Created by J.T. Rogers (of the mixed-bag HBO film Oslo), Tokyo Vice is an adaptation of the memoir Tokyo Vice: An American Reporter on the Police Beat in Japan, which Adelstein wrote after 12 years spent as a crime reporter for the Yomiuri Shimbun. In the premiere episode, directed by Michael Mann, the focus is on Jake and his simultaneous otherness and comfort within Japanese culture … When he lands a highly competitive gig at the Meicho Shimbun (renamed for the series), he imagines an All the President’s Men–style career path full of front-page bylines and bringing down bad guys. — Roxana Hadadi “Ken Watanabe Kicks the Slow-Moving Tokyo Vice Into High Gear”

Tokyo Vice was created by J.T. Rogers and executive produced by Michael Mann. Starring Ansel Elgort, Ken Watanabe, Rachel Keller, and Rinko Kikuchi.
