Shōgun is a 2024 American historical drama series developed by Rachel Kondo and Justin Marks. It adapts the 1975 novel by James Clavell, previously adapted as a 1980 miniseries. The show features an ensemble cast including Hiroyuki Sanada, Cosmo Jarvis, Anna Sawai, Tadanobu Asano, Takehiro Hira, Tommy Bastow, and Fumi Nikaido. The production employs a predominantly Japanese cast, with most of the dialogue delivered in Japanese.
The series began as a miniseries format. Its first two episodes aired on February 27, 2024 on FX on Hulu and FX, followed by weekly releases until April 23, 2024. Critics praised the show for its direction, writing, cinematography, production design, acting, and loyalty to the original work. The success led to development of seasons two and three, with principal filming for season two commencing in January 2026.
