FX’s Shōgun, starring Hiroyuki Sanada, has released its first trailer and set a release date.
The Big Picture FX unveiled today the trailer for Shōgun, an ambitious-looking limited series based on a best-selling novel by author James Clavell. The series has been in the works for quite a while, but the trailer makes it clear that this is a blockbuster-level production and fully explains why it took so long for us to hear anything about it. We’ll also have to wait a little longer: The series is slated to premiere in February 2024, and FX is yet to reveal a specific release window.
Set in 1600s feudal Japan, Shōgun stars Hiroyuki Sanada as Lord Yoshii Toranaga, who witnesses a Civil War take shape all the while the Japanese start clashing with Europeans – and he’s presented with an unlikely alliance that may tip the scales in his favor. The connecting thread between Japanese and European revolutionaries will be Toda Mariko , a woman caught between her religious beliefs and her heritage from a disgraced family.
The trailer suggests that Shōgun has the makings of must-watch TV. While it makes it absolutely clear that the episodes draw inspiration from Japanese cinema masterpieces like Akira Kurosawa’s The Seven Samurai and Ran, the series will also throw in some spectacle like the ship in a revolting sea scene suggests. For Japanese cinema lovers, the show will make for a great companion to newly released Netflix anime series Blue Eye Samurai.
'Shōgun' Gathers A Stellar Japanese Cast Shōgun is co-created and showrun by Justin Marks, who co-wrote mega popular sequel Top Gun: Maverick, penned The Jungle Book live-action remake and created the Counterpart TV series for Starz. Aside from Sanada and Sawai, the cast also features Tadanobu Asano , Hiroto Kanai , Takehiro Hira , Moeka Hoshi , Tokuma Nishioka , Shinnosuke Abe , Yuki Kura , Fumi Nikaido and Cosmo Jarvis .
The series is also a landmark during the peak television era: It’s not that common for the world to see other cultures depicted in long-form productions with this kind of production values – especially considering that Shōgun will likely have a pretty large subtitled section.
