The season two finale of Tokyo Vice drops today and fans of the show are eagerly awaiting news on whether or not there will be a season three.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter last month, Elgort  – who plays American journalist Jake Adelstein on the show about the Yakuza gang – talked about how episode eight of the current season circles back to the pilot.

‘In episode eight we finally get to that first scene in the Michael Mann pilot where Jake and Katagiri go and meet with the yakuza,’ he said.

‘We finally got back there, and it was amazing for me to be back there now, because it was a few years later and I am speaking Japanese in the scene and I’m much better now’ he said.

The Baby Driver – which debuts on Netflix this month– actor also revealed how he finally mastered his Japanese lines for the pilot episode and how much better he is at the language now.

‘I was preparing for many months [in season one] speaking Japanese, so I definitely wasn’t as good as I was when I shot it the second time, or as good as I am now. 

‘But at the time, I still knew what I was saying,’ he told the outlet and then spoke several lines of fluent Japanese.

He continued:  ‘I had practiced it also with a sensei and he would help me with the with the pronunciation and inflection; so, I probably said that line about a million times before I did it the first time.’

‘And then in season two when I would speak Japanese, I didn’t need to do things a million times. I could start memorizing a few days before and be able to do it,’ he said. 

‘Sometimes when you have just learned it, and it can come out more natural. I was a little nervous to be doing a scene in Japanese that first time, and that nervousness came across in that pilot,’ he explained.

‘And the second time, now I had all the context of everything leading up to that scene, which I didn’t have in the pilot. I kind of knew the story but I hadn’t lived those events yet. 

‘So, I’m nervous but I’m also really pissed off, because these people are threatening my family,’ he said.
