Robo-G (ロボジー, Robo Ji) is a 2012 Japanese comedy film directed by Shinobu Yaguchi and starring Mickey Curtis and Yuriko Yoshitaka.
They hold a fake audition to gather actors for a costumed show, and after many twists and turns, the person they choose is Suzuki Shigemitsu, an elderly man living in retirement.
With requests to perform coming in from all over Japan, the three can't back out, so they tell Suzuki the truth and ask him to continue playing the role of New Shiokaze.
Kobayashi regrets his actions, Ota gives up thinking, and Nagai is driven to the point of attempting to commit suicide by disguising it as a car fall accident (but is stopped by a motorcycle policeman that happens to pass by), so Suzuki sympathizes with the three and accepts their request.
Just then, New Shiokaze (Suzuki) leaves the event venue to visit his daughter and grandchildren without permission, and the three think that he has disappeared, but cannot report the incident to the police, and get exhausted.
In the midst of her grief, Yoko becomes enraged when she finds evidence that there is a person inside New Shiokaze, and begins to cooperate with Itami of a local cable TV station in exposing the secret of Kimura Electric.
Around the same time, a researcher overseas points out that "New Shiokaze is fake," and the president of Kimura Electric sets up a press conference to clear the suspicion.
