It’s only Monday, but Travis Japan is already taking the week by storm!

First, they dropped their infectious new single 「Would You Like One?」 — and now, even bigger news has splashed onto the scene: Kaito Nakamura, better known as Umi, has been cast as David, the surfer who watches over sisters Lilo and Nani (and seriously adorable) boyfriend of Nani in Disney’s live-action Lilo & Stitch!

This isn’t the first time a Tiger has teamed up with Disney magic — just last year, Genta Matsuda lent his voice to Taka (better known as Scar) in Mufasa: The Lion King.

And honestly, could there be a better fit? Umi’s name literally means “Sea” — making him the perfect choice to bring David’s laid-back, ocean-loving spirit to life!

Personally, I can’t wait to see what Umi does with the role!

More Travis Japan soon so…

Stay Tuned!
