Nifty has just published an interview with Kitarie about her forthcoming movie 'HERO~2020~':
https://news.nifty.com/article/entame/showbizd/12176-654241/

Google translation:

For the heroine Rie Kitahara in the movie "Hero-2020", the hero is that person in AKB48.

The movie “HERO ～ 2020 ～” featuring Rie Kitahara as the heroine will be released at Cine Libre Ikebukuro from June 19 (scheduled to be released nationwide).

This work, which causes various kinds of turmoil over "two-year limited love," is a film version of Satoshi Matsuo and Saito Kogaku added to the same cast as the stage "HERO-2019 Summer-" staged in July last year. . So I spoke to Rie Kitahara, who plays the heroine Asami Kizaki.

――What kind of character is Asami to play this time?

Kitahara It's a kind and quiet type. I'm an ordinary woman, but I think it's normal for a play to be the most difficult. I was anxious when I read the script, but I want to overcome it here. I've always been in contact with many different things, so I remembered when I came.

--How about making the stage into a movie?

Kitahara There were many discoveries in my first experience. I already remembered the lines, and included some emotions. But on the contrary, it was so stiff that I sometimes suffered from it.

――Your teamwork looks good.

Kitahara That's right. I had been practicing for a month already on the stage. Usually, at first there is tension for strangers, but since I didn't have that, I was able to concentrate more on the play. It was fun because I was a good friend with free time.

--What are the highlights?

Kitahara's work by Mitsutoshi has many hints. I would like you to pay attention to how it will be collected. The rest are past scenes that I could not draw on the stage. For the two years with Hiroki and Asami, who are the main characters, I think that those who watch the stage will enjoy the new scene.

――What would you do if you were told that you can only have two years like this movie?

Kitahara Even if I confess that I like it, and even if it's said that it will be limited to two years from the other side, I will go out with it. I will definitely go through the two year deadline! Make you feel good. I think I'll do my best to have a very fun date and try to grab my stomach by cooking, and make an effort to make me think, "I don't want to break up!" ...... Well, no, but there is a possibility that it will not last for two years in the first place (laugh).

-It's opening again! What are the requirements that Kitahara wants from her boyfriend?

Kitahara "Interesting" is an absolute requirement. It is a type that is attracted to word sense. Also, I think it's nice to say "it's different".

――Are there any people who come up with the title “hero”?

Kitahara Oka Shizuka (AKB48). I don't feel like meeting someone over the landlord. I was living with AKB48 when I was new, but my first birthday was moving. There was a dance that I had to learn in two days, practice while crying, and the morning of the production day. The landlord baked a cookie, saying "Please do your best". Moreover, when I came back, "Thank you", the gateau chocolate was burning.

-It's a wonderful story.

The Kitahara landlord is the same age, but he is a senior who entered AKB48 first. But I made the theater debut first. You will definitely be disappointed, but he does such a wonderful thing! I respect that kind of place, and I think it's connected to her success now.

--In the movie, there is a scene where Hiroki takes a step, but has Mr. Kitahara made a step recently?

Kitahara I was growing my bangs, but when I finished the work, I cut my hair.

--It's a small step.

Kitahara I don't dye my hair, and I don't think I have the challenge spirit ... Two years have passed since I graduated from the AKB48 group, and I think I should change even more.

――Are there any future goals?

Kitahara I want to appear in NHK's taiga drama.

-Isn't it a big goal? What role do you want to play?

Kitahara I don't think I can play the main role, so I can play any role. But if you can, do you want to go out not only once but four times? (Lol)

――It's a goal with feet on the ground, which is typical of Mr. Kitahara.

Kitahara: So I plan to hone myself this year by learning Japanese dance.

A nice story about her acting career.

Two years after graduating from the AKB48 group, the evolution of actress Kitahara Rie "I want to be myself any time any role comes"

[Lots about her acting and the movie "HERO～2020～," but what we really want to know]

--A few years ago, there was also a statement saying "I want to get married when the Tokyo Olympics are over."

Kitahara　　You said that. The year has come earlier than I expected, but the Olympics have been postponed and I have no plans for now (laughs). But there is always a desire for marriage. The actress wants to continue, but I love children, so it is a big dream to become a bride and have a family.

――To live a fulfilling life in many ways.

Kitahara　　I want to be like that. Marriage is not my goal, but I also want to do everything I can because I am single now."

Happy birthday Kitarie~

I've always admired her, ever since seeing her as a Kenkyuusei on AKBINGO. I miss her but I'm also glad she managed to ride out on a high

Story in Oricon about her birthday and her YT channel.

Rie Kitahara, an actress, opened her YouTube channel "Kitarie Channel" on June 24th, which is her 29th birthday. At ORICON NEWS, we had an exclusive interview with Kitahara, who talked about her thoughts on opening the channel and her goals for the future.

Kitahara said she had "regrets in the past" to dare to take on the challenge. “In the AKB48 era, there were apps that allowed us to ask and answer questions with fans, but they were the type that we couldn't immediately bite. The kids who challenged that, took the opportunity to go one step further, and asked, “Why? I couldn't do it myself.” There was a point that I couldn't seize the opportunity, and I thought that if I didn't take the challenge (on YouTube), I would regret my past.” Looking back, I decided a challenge for my future.

　I learned how to edit during the period of refraining from the new coronavirus in order to relieve my hardship. "I realized that it wasn't easy, but I could do it!" It was great for me to have a self-restraint period. Without this period, I kept thinking "I can't do it." By making effective use of my spare time, I was determined to take a new step.

　The video to be posted is being filmed at home, and the kitchen of the Kitahara family will be unveiled for the first time. "I'm a little embarrassed, but I love eating, so I hope I can make it a channel that conveys a lot of my interests."
