Shōhei Hino (Japanese: 火野 正平, Hepburn: Hino Shōhei, born May 30, 1949 in Tokyo) is a Japanese actor and singer. Hino was born in Tokyo and raised in Osaka.[1] Hino appeared in many jidaigeki television dramas. He is best known for his roles in the Hissatsu series.[2][3]

He began his acting career at the age of 13.[1] In 1966, he made his film debut with Izukoe. In 1973, he was given the stage name Shōhei Hino by novelist Shōtarō Ikenami.[1] In the same year, he won popularity through his role Hashiba Hideyoshi in Kunitori Monogatari.[4] In 1974, Hino made film appearance for the first time in 8 years and played lead role for the first time in My Blood is the Blood of Others directed by Toshio Masuda.[5]{ He was one of the candidates for the role of main character Genji in Shohei Imamura's film Eijanaika but eventually he played a smaller role.[6] As a singer Hino debuted in 1977 with the single "Sonomamani".

From 2011, Hino has been hosting a travel program "Nippon Odan Kokorotabi" on NHK-BS which he travels around Japan by bicycle.[7]
