FX’s Shōgun Begins Filming Season 2 After First-Look Tease

The first-look video confirms cameras are rolling, signaling a season built around a decade jump plus larger battles beyond the novel.

Overview

  • FX shared a short behind-the-scenes video that confirms Shōgun Season 2 is now in production.
  • Co-creator Justin Marks says the story moves forward by ten years and will feature large-scale battle sequences.
  • Hiroyuki Sanada returns as lead and executive producer, with Cosmo Jarvis, Fumi Nikaido, and Shinnosuke Abe also reprising their roles.
  • New faces joining the cast include Asami Mizukawa, Masataka Kubota, Jun Kunimura, and Ren Meguro, with more performers added in March.
