Hiroyuki must have a contract that says every samurai film requires him hahaha.
I will watch every one. I hope he is paid for that fact
@@trying3841 I hope he is getting minimum wage and not a penny more
Why?@@MMAengineer
He sells.
Hes for me the perfect Mifune of this era!! i Fing love his Swordmanship.
From the last samurai to shogun, Hiroyuki Sanada is a legend
Don't forget Sankuokai !!! (on TV at the end of the seventies. All started from there)
You know Mr. Hiroyuki is the REAL last samurai in this world
I think the Last Samurai was a bootleg version of the book Shogun, from when I watched it.
John Wick 4 too
And 47 Ronin
Shõgun was one of my father's favourite books, he read it so many times it was litereally falling apart. I remember when the TV series was showing he was working afternoon shift so I had to sit there and record it for him on the VHS. One funny moment was when I forgot to pause it during a commercial, however it was a commercial for Singapore airlines or something, and the first part of the ad showed a colourful little boat with red sails against a sunset. It fit so well and looked like part of the series he never noticed.
Years later the series came out on DVD and he sat through it yet again for the umpteenth time; he's been gone for 16 years so now it's part of my own movie collection.
This new version does look good, hopefully it's as good as the trailer.
My father watched this religiously back then
@@brooklynboiprod me too along with Miami Vice. the 80's was ...simply awesome !
The trailer is an overt promotion of healthy heterosexual relationships lol
And there's not a single Negros among the samurai! In today's mainstream, that's an unacceptable luxury. It's a scandal, I'm not afraid of the word!
I read the book when I was 15. Saw the movie afterwards. This DOES NOT LOOK GOOD. This looks like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon meets Tom Cruise horrendous samurai BS. It looks like a f***ing joke. But I guess that samurai are back on mainstream with Sekiro, Nioh, AC Codename Red and Rise of the Ronin, not to mention animes and whatnot, so why not a historically inaccurate drama with flashy comic battles, right?
@@metodoinstinto Well speaking for myself, I loved Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, The Last Samurai, House Of Flying Daggers, Curse Of The Golden Flower and Red Cliff.
Sure, CT-HD and HoFD have a touch of the fantasy about them, but I didn't mind that, so sounds as if I'll like this new version of Shõgun. I guess they're not for everyone.
Every frame was visual eye candy. Everything was shot so well.
YES! A period drama not focused in the West!
Meh. The trailer is mid, tbh
@@garurumon1203 you're probably just a garden variety cynic.
Hey I’ve got some really great news to share with you, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died on a cross and resurrected on the third day so you may all have eternal life. If you believe and repent of your sins and put your faith and trust in Him as you would a parachute jumping off a plane at 25000 feet up in the air, He will give you eternal life in heaven as a free gift and I promise you, He will change your life forever as He did mine. He is the ONLY way to heaven and He loves you all. Please think deeply about this with urgency because this is your eternal life and soul, you don’t know when you could die, meaning you could die at any moment, so please consider this with all your heart. If anyone tells you that Jesus isn’t the only way, they are lying to you and they don’t care about your future.
@@garurumon1203 like your moms only fans channel
If Hiroyuki Sanada is in a movie....its defently epic.He is a legend
Unfortunately it's a TV Series.
Watered down as usual, past the first few episodes.
@@HeathBlythe Mini series, which is usually better. More pre-planning and less degradation in quality.
Twilight Samurai is one of my favorites!
@@HeathBlythe Show's not even out yet, my guy.
This is What I thought Netflix would do with Yosuke... this looks interesting. Hoping they just tell a good story.
In 1998, my grandpa, who was a big fan of Samurai movies, showed me some VHS recordings of the 1980 series. Whenever he would watch me for an evening, we would watch it, and some other classic samurai movies. When the Tom Cruise movie, The Last Samurai came out, he was happy that there was a Samurai movie I could grow up with. He passed in 2005, I wish he was here to watch this, he would have loved it.
The Last Samurai is one of my all time favorite movies that is tied with Kingdom of Heaven.
He'll be enjoying it right beside ya bro 👋😇
@NinjaJerky thats one of my favorite movies too... and this looks exactly like that, but in the version of a show... I'm excited for this
I would say that the Last Samurai is based on a lot of Clavell's masterpiece. Which is why it was a great movie.
@NinjaJerky I absolutely agree. 100%, 1000% bro fist
The moment I saw Hiroyuki Sanada, I bowed my head in respect. A must-watch.
Hiroyuki sanada is one of the untouchable actors,I respect every his actions 🤯
Right! He is awesome
Yeah we actually see him in every movie when it comes with these kind of genres
I absolutely love that they speak japanese. It transmits so well the atmosphere, feelings of the protagonist to encounter the unknown culture.
I've been playing Ghost of Tsushima for the first time and loving it, so another Samurai thing seems cool now that I'm really into that era haha😂
@@fuzzyotterpaws4395great game. I'm currently replaying it and came across this trailer by chance. Looks great.
@likashaid7913 Agreed! Can’t wait to take it all in✨
Not only that, they speak an old form of Japanese from that time that modern Japanese people don't use anymore.
@@Kaparzo this detail makes this serie 10000x more amazing
"The ultimate rank a mortal can achieve.......SHOGUN."
Now that's a more fitting title to a timeless story.
Which means a barbaric terrorist.
Finally, we'll see the true nature of the japanese "civilization"
This show is really good. It has been a long time since I've felt that way about any show. I watched episodes 1 and 2 tonight 3 times each.
Lol why 3 times. Nice though
Hiroyuki Sanada litterally embodies the samurai spirit. He's excellent in every role of that nature.
James Clavell's novel is brilliant, what a great read! Richard Chamberlain, Tishiro Mifune and Yoko Shimada's performances in the 1st series are outstanding. Can't wait to see this version!!
Toshiro Mifune is a legend. So much pressure on Sanada to at least make it comparable
He will make it. He is almost as legend as Toshiro
You know 80% of the people that watch this will think it is a rip off of some Manga they've read. lol.
I've been playing Ghost of Tsushima for the first time and loving it, so another Samurai thing seems cool now that I'm really into that era haha😂
My favorite out of the Asia Novels. And yes, Toshiro will be tough shoes to fill, But Hiroyuki will do just fine. The one that I am worried about is Frankie Sakai who played Yabu. What a performance that was! Hopefully they won't stray too far from the Novel.
I lived in Japan as a young man. I loved it.
Shogun is an amazing book. The way it captivates the reader and draws attention to Japanese culture and the stark differences between it and western culture at the time was done with respect with respect. I hope, if this series is based on the book, all the writers are fans and attempt to honor the book properly by conveying it accurately.
@@OmoshiroiWagunura-op9fy yeah, the endowment fascination can get old, but it is a real thing. If it exists today (it does, from personal and anecdotal experience, one of the first 10 questions I'm asked is about my endowment. The response from the men is, "yeah, that's amazing, but ours are very hard". The response from women varies), it certainly existed back then. It may be annoying that it appears as often in the book just as it comes up often in real life, but it's real.
More to the point of respect (with admission that I may be viewing the book through rose tinted glasses as it's been years since I read it), Blacthorne goes on at length, repeatedly, about the organization, cleanliness, and hidden social tactics of the culture. He falls in love with the people and takes on their hearts. It may not sound like respect to some but it does to me. None of that, true or false, would call for a modern revision to satiate the appetites of imaginary modern audiences though, which is the thing I hope doesn't happen.
I purchased another copy and will reread (it's been years) to remember what does and doesn't happen, then I'll consider giving the show a go.
There is almost nothing about Japanese culture or European culture in either the old series or this one.
Almost the entire series pompously tells about the political structure of stunningly cruel feudal Japan against the backdrop of Europe, which is already emerging from feudalism.
The book is a look at Japan from the side of a feudal lord. A highly embellished look. Propaganda.
Hiroyuki Sanada is a legend. Him just being in it is worth the watch. Anna Sawai, who played Kiriko in Ninja Assassin is a very underrated pick up. The novel (Shogun) is one of the greatest stories ever written. It's up there with The Lord of The Rings series, Dune, Journey to the West, the Harry Potter series, and A Game of Thrones (Song of Ice & Fire series). It isn't talked about enough actually compared to those books. If you haven't read it and you're reader, give it a read. It's worth your time, especially if you like history.
Agreed with Shogun, just not with your whole list 🙂
@@ashocck8065 I don't care.😌
Thank you going to have to make this my next read or Audible.
I grew up knowing Henry Sanada, Hiroyuki's screen name in the 80s movies in my home country. He is still the best actor for this genre.
He's a legend. Even I, on the other side of the globe was blown away by his presence on screen. Big fan since 2003 😃

Hiroyuki Sanada, in my humble opinion, is irreplaceable as an actor and artist. May he live very long and continue to prosper!
YAAASS! Been waiting for a big budget Samurai movie/series since Last Samurai
The sets they built in Port Moody were massive, I used to work across the street from where alot of this was filmed. And no, I didn't meet or see any of the main actors, just the buildings.
wow did you meet or see any of the main actors?
What was Hiroyuki Sanada like in person?
You got to meet the buildings? Did they come alive like the floor boards on peewee’s playhouse?
wow did you meet or see any of the main actors?
I know an old Judo instructor that was an extra for the movie, they were rounding up anyone with Japanese ancestry
I can already tell this is going to be one of my favorite shows. Holy damn.
Not sure yet, but it most certainly will be one of the 2024s shows!
The original was great. Good timing for a remake, too.
I don't get the hype. It looks like another Hollywood "white man goes to savage land, finds himself in a conflict with locals, gets rejected at first but eventually everyone on the good side accepts him and he helps them, and in the end he sleeps with an exotic local girl".
How many of these types of movies/shows do we need to have? LOL
@@darthvadeth6290 As many as they want to make? As many as we want to watch? Both?
But I also don't get the hype. My guess it's the same people that leave a 5/5 ⭐️ review on episode one, knowing there's a 90% chance that the rest of a show will flop.
@@darthvadeth6290 It's a remake of a very popular and well done movie series. The series is an adaption of a very good bestseller. And that bestseller based his novel on the historical figure of William Adams. While many events of the series are fictional of course, William Adams WAS the most influential foreigner in Japan of that period, he WAS key advisor of a shogun and he DID become a samurai.
And the hype is mostly due to the fact that the original series was very well done but 45 years old. We are just eager so see an updated version with modern technology and budgets. It's certainly more interesting than another installment of John Wick, Fast&Furious or stupid superhero movies.
EDIT:
I want to add that, since you seem to be not familiar with the material, the story is NOT the usual "westerner goes east and introduces western values and they all love it". Telling the story through the eyes of a westerner is the easiest way to introduce westeners to a culture and period that we aren't familiar with. And this IS all about japanese culture and that period. John Blackthorne (the fictional book version of Adams) isn't converting anyone to become western. He learns to love the culture and ultimately decides to stay there voluntarily. By the end of the story he despises the west and doesn't want any of that anymore. So, no, not the usual tropes.
2:02 that shot is peak cinematography
The twitching of the tired and post-adrenaline samurai really sells it
I’ve read the book. It is an absolute mind boggling masterpiece of writing and story telling. Excited to see how this pans out.
As a kid I was fascinated by the story. As an adult, I deeply enjoyed the old series. And no be sure, this will be my personal No. 1 Start of a new TV-series this year!
When is it coming out and on which platform?
you should watch Shadow its chinese but still good
Watch the trailer like the rest of us -.-@@y.a9473
If my older brother would have bought the book, I would have read this. I only read his old books for modern fiction. Never even knew it existed, lol.
where can watch or download it??? i can't find it anywhere
Shogun remastered! James Clavell’s unsurpassed historical masterpiece brought to the screen once more was long overdue. The visuals-showing the turmoil, the passion, the intrigue, the bloody battles among the warring samurai- are stunning. This is my must-see-TV event of 2024.
What a fucking weird comment. Are you a bot?
It's not historical..
Ugh, that book sucked.
@@brandonbuckles826 what dont you like about it (without spoiling) i have the book but havent read yet.
its historical fiction.
@@putinscat1208
After i saw last samurai with Hiroyuki i was like he needs his own movie now we have a whole show to look forward lol nice!
My favourite novel. So much potential ... oh please let it not suck.
Honestly just going by the trailer they clearly didn't focus too much on the western characters which is ideal - the real drama is amongst the Samurai and they're just caught up in it. Works well in the book as a western reader "self insert" and should do so here too!
It's gonna suck. Already looks like shit from this trailer. We got some chick in no armor swinging around a polearm weapon against a crowd in one hand and not instantly being killed...
It will suck.
Fx = Disney nowadays so more woke garbage
@@Obese_Pterodactyl -Gonna suck...gonna be woke..the gentle and demure Mariko we all fell in love with is gonna be an eye-rolling "badass".....Made for a new generation of cretins, so gonna come with subtitles, so people won't learn Japanese, as WE learned with Chamberlain in the first series.
One of the all-time greatest novels ever written. James Clavell, master of the historical novel.
Yes and this is looking far better than the 1980 mini-series, James Clavell had a really good trilogy with Shogun, Tai-Pan & Noble House.
@@chestersleezer8821 It certainly looks bloodier than the 80s mini-series. I'll definitely be re-reading Shogun before I watch this series. Oh. And don't forget Clavell also wrote "Gai-Jin", set 20 years after "Tai-Pan" and is about Malcolm Struan, the son of Tess and Culum Struan. Pretty good book. Gotta read all four (including the masterpiece that is "Noble House") again, soon.
that is a LARGE estatement. The novel is good, etc but as all historical novels the historical value is VERY limited and this is no exception.
They normally full certain characters with many modernizing aspects that in many ways go against the historical sources. I can recall some with, for example, Gaius Marius as an honorable man with good aspirations and a victim of other's plans when, according to historical sources of the moment he was a master of assasinating his oponets.....
I read it when I was teenager and the only part I remember is when all the Japanese women were amazed by the size of his penis.
Like I said, I was a teenager...
Then we can see Yabu, Toranaga, Mariko, Ishido... N at last our Anjin-san..
I saw the tv show in 90s with my mom, then I read the book and it became one of my favorite, so exited that the new version will come out
I will sign up just for this show. Looks incredible.
so for those who dont know this novel is based on real historic events but theyve changed the historic characters names in the novel ..here are some of them that you might know from samurai warriros games or other warriors games:
Cosmo Jarvis as Pilot Major John Blackthorne (Miura Anjin (William Adams)) (1564-1620))
Hiroyuki Sanada as Lord Yoshii Toranaga (Tokugawa Ieyasu (1543-1616))
Anna Sawai as Toda Mariko (Hosokawa Gracia (1563-1600))
Tadanobu Asano as Kashigi Yabushige (Honda Masanobu (1538-1616))
Fumi Nikaido as Ochiba No Kata (Yodo-dono (1569-1615))
Tokuma Nishioka as Toda "Iron Fist" Hiromatsu (Hosokawa Fujitaka (1534-1610))
Takehiro Hira as Ishido Kazunari (Ishida Mitsunari (1559-1600))
Ako as Daiyoin Lady Iyo
Shinnosuke Abe as Toda Buntaro (Hosokawa Tadaoki (1563-1646))
Yasunari Takeshima as Muraji
Hiroto Kanai as Kashigi Omi (Honda Masazumi (1566-1637))
Toshi Toda as Sugiyama (Maeda Toshiie (1539-1599))
Hiro Kanagawa as Igurashi
Junichi Tajiri as Uejiro
Néstor Carbonell as Vasco Rodrigues
Yuki Kura as Yoshii Nagakado (Matsudaira Tadayoshi (1580-1607))
Tommy Bastow as Father Martin Alvito
Moeka Hoshi as Usami Fuji
Nobuya Shimamoto as Nebara Jozen
Yoriko Dōguchi as Kiri No Kata
Yuka Kouri as Kiku
Yuki Kedoin as Takemaru
Mako Fujimoto as Shizu No Kata
Haruno Niiyama as Natsu No Kata
Hiromoto Ida as Kiyama ukon Sadanaga (Konishi Yukinaga (1555-1600))
Takeshi Kurokawa as Ohno Harunobu (Otani Yoshitsugu (1558-1600))
Yuko Miyamoto as Gin
is there a particular reason why they had to change the names?
@@mcjm9760 Out of respect I guess?
@@mcjm9760 The novel's author James Clavell did it. It's because his novel is not historically accurate, he wanted to portray the way Japanese think and feel.
Strong and independent wamen fighting off several men -> category: fantasy
@@M0butuThe kunoichi type of class, women assassins actually existed. So its not a fantasy to see a women assassinating a top war general in Japans many wars. Usually many of them just like in preview were girls who pretended to be red light district girls or escorts to pull off these kills in bed with poison or you know a knife 🔪.
I read Shogun when I was 10 years old and watched the series with my parents. Really, really excited about this new version
good for you I learn more about japanese history with Japan's video games displaying all the major actors of the period with their background etc .... and it was way more exciting than the fictional garbage of a random white dude on Japan's history
@NapoleonAquila You can "keep" your stupid silly games. I'd rather learn about ancient Japan by reading both historical fiction as well as straight history.
@@NapoleonAquilaI work in the gaming industry lol. You can read and play, you can read manga and watcha anime and read Salinger 😂 how old are you? 5?
@@NapoleonAquila The white dude was not so random, though, he was based on William Adams, an English sailor in service of a Dutch expedition to Japan. He eventually became an advisor and diplomat in service of the Tokugawa shogun, together with Jan Joosten they became one of the first non Japanese samurai. The cannons from their ship, De Liefde, were used by Tokugawa Ieyasu's forces in the Battle of Sekigahara.
@@NapoleonAquila The "random white dude" was actually a real man, he become a Samurai and very close friend and adviser to Tokugawa Ieyasu. Go look it up there are videos about him and his story right here on UA-cam.
I watched the series in the 70's and then read the novel years later. It's a really great story and I can't wait to see this new version.
If they ever did a movie about Toshiro Mifune's life. Sanada would be perfect for it. To the uniniated. Mifune was the John Wayne of Samurai films in the 20th century. He was the inspiration for Obi-Wan Kenobi.
To old
If only man... a true legend
昨今の大河より圧倒的に胸が踊るクオリティー！！
観たい！！！！！
the series is very good. It completely captivates you. from Hungary
Currently reading this series... this show looks incredible
One of the favorite movies from my youth; the original Shogun. I certainly MUST see this one!
I didn't even know this was being made. Read the book and saw the original series back in the day ... and reread it as recently as a year ago. I hope this is as good as it looks ... the book and the series were both fantastic !
The book is really amazing. I really hope the movie doesn't disappoint.
I wouldn't hold my breath. But the sex scenes should make up for the gaps.
That whole series that James Clavell wrote ( Shogun, Tai-Pan, Noble House ) and a few others are really good reads.
Same here. Borrowed the book in Jr High and never returned it lol have read it countless times. One day saw the mini series on DVD in HMV...and bought it. Still have it. The book is a true masterpiece. I hope this new series does it justice.
I read all of Clavell's series. Have you read Shibumi by Trevanian?
I'm calling this out now
, this will be show of the year!!
Better than Mayans biker gang
This is one of my favoutie books
James Clavell was an amazing author
Really excited to watch this
I loved the original 80s series as a kid....This reboot looks epic!!
The original ABC miniseries was an event. It was an impressive and thrilling show, from one of the best historical novels ever written. This remake looks equally impressive, with a heck of a cast and awesome looking production values. Definitely am pumped to see this.
the 80s version was the first time I'd seen somebodys head removed,scared the crap out of me:)
@@markwhelan8233 The blinding scene was kind of scary as well.
I just got the book, about 1/2 way thru. I can't wait for the new show. Trailers are awesome so far.
I don't remember a women fighting many other warriors in the book? I mean it's 2024 everything needs to be woke but ..
Don't worry I'm sure we'll also get to see men fighting multiple foes at once !
I understand that you want it to be faithful to the source material. But come on, how can you not be excited for some Onna-Bugeisha action ? You don't have to approach everything through the woke/anti-woke spectrum :)
日本語がしっかりしてる！そこがまず凄い
Way back 2004-2005 when I had the book.I lost it years after and before pandemic struck in 2019 bought a copy after years of looking.Been a big fan of James Clavell and almost completed my collection.Saw the Last Samurai & John Wick & Hiroyuki Sanada is at his best for genres like this!
I am 100% on board with giving this a chance looks great with a cool cast. See you Feb 27th.
Me tooooo so ready for this damn
😎@@PC-ij3sh
As an America who's always been into Japanese culture and history this trailer left my blood pumping 😯🫀👹⚔️
Yessir😁
What?
episodes 1 and 2 were amazing, high hopes to see how the rest of the series goes
I cannot wait, loved the books. Hope this exceeds expectations.
Hope this inspires a new generation of people who love Japanese culture. For me as a kid its was movies like the Last Samurai.
japanese culture will always be fascinating.
The Last samurai =boshin war
No samurai armor
it always has continued to be, I just wish there more martial arts movies & shows like we had growing up!

@@Magma-vu5voyes bro
Arguable the greatest historical novel written. Certainly my favourite.
I remember watching the original series when I was a kid. This one is going to be awesome!!
One thing I can say is that I was reminded of the charm and high recognition of samurai. Opinions, whether for or against, are free to express themselves. However, this work has already become extremely popular.
this looks like the best bit of tv/movies ive seen in years. the trailer alone even lol.
I really can’t wait. I love movies like this one. The real samurai movies, dark, violent
first time I have been excited about a show in decades
Trailer looks absolutely amazing, can't wait to see this!!!
The cast itself is already mindblowing. I can't believe this I am too excited
Read this 3 times as a kid. Cannot wait to see this re-imagined on the big screen!
Hiroyuki Sanada is my top ten favorite actors in history. Whatever he does, I'll be there
Read the book several times back in school, classic hands down.
O M G. First time seeing this trailer and it’s the most excited I’ve been for any show in a long time. It looks so good. Like, you can tell when a show will live up to the trailer. This is one of those ones. The cast is stacked! Plus, FX doesn’t miss. Usually.
Maaan! I remember watching the old shogun tv series! Loved it when I was a kid.
Man I really hope this lives up to the 1980s miniseries. And the novel.
This show needs to come out already
the book and original tv series are masterpieces. very very hard to get good copies of original series but worth it
the original serie (i have it in 1080p) will be WAY better than this @Sscarecrow and i really doubt you ever read the book or watched the serie back then...
lol why the doubt? bought the series for a friends birthday who then gave me the book for mine last year@@Dan-Commando
43 years ago I read James Clavell's novel and watched the miniseries with Richard Chamberlain. I've been waiting for this ever since
I can’t tell you how much I love this series!!!!
I remember growing up when this show aired, and as a Japanese American who is typically critical of most content. Except, this one looks good because they cast actual Japanese actors, so I can't wait to watch it.
This show didn't aired yet. What do you mean?
@@yellow95111 it aired 44 years ago, Shogun 1980
@@greg.peepeeface Seen as a kid, too! And i've read "Shogun" from James Clavell into my teen years, on which the mini series, hence the movie with Richard Chamberlain is being based on.
@@marcp.1752 so how are you liking the new series?? I was too young for me to understand anything when the 80s series was released
@@greg.peepeeface To be honest, i have not seen it so far. But trailers do look amazing. Albeit, i am a huge fan of the orginal Novel, like i wrote before, "Shogun" from James Clavell, it is t is a really captivating book, FYI. The same goes for "First blood" from David Morell, *if* you do know only the movie "Rambo" with Sylvester Stallone, you might being surprised about the book, and the movie afterwards...and about character development. Back to topic, i really liked Richard Chamberlain into the original 1980 series, also Yoko Shimada, as "Mariko". Needless to say, i am a *huge* fan since when i was a kid, of Toshiro Mifune, he really is an icon, legendary actor.
It has been a very long time since I was this excited about new series
This looks amazing!!!! Can't wait to watch it!!!
I read this book three times while locked up…it’s really good.
I dont normally get goosebumps watching trailers.. but damn this is dope!
Been reading a manga set in this period called Shigurui -- absolutely brutal and graphic violence, but not in the typical manga/anime way. That's the vibe that this show seems to have from the trailer. It's ironic but unsurprising that it took a western production to capture this kind of tone. Japanese period dramas all typically seem to re-use the same kind of "chanbara" style of action developed in the 50s-70s. Stock sound effects for sword clangs, bright red blood spurting like fountains from a wound (or no blood at all). It's nice to see something that captures the gritty medieval vibe of the Sengoku period, and doesn't shy away from showing the graphic brutality of that era.
Was thinking the same, japanese ones are not it, there is an anime too by the way
What's the name of the nanga?
@@uchihagojou8447 Shigurui
Some of Kurosawas stuff fits that vibe
Oh hiroyuki san is here. Imma watch this.
Seeing Hiroyuki Sanada play Tokugawa Ieyasu is such a treat
I’ve loved Hiroyuki for a hot minute. He was in a syfy series called Helix. I was so pissed it got canceled. Anything he’s in I’m watching.
Me too!! Love him and loved that show
I will never miss a Hiroyuki Sanada movie/series. Ever. Never
My Mom loved the original Shogun!💖
This show's bringin' it. Can't wait.
Read this book on a boat to Norway in 1981 for arctic warfare training with the Royal Marines. Finally the movie!
Limited series, not a movie.
The original short series were a masterpiece. Looking forward to seeing this one!
I read the book and saw the series back in the day. Excellent stuff! have the book and the dvd series today. I REALLY want to watch this new one!
Literally just started the book from the 70's and now I see this. What are the odds.
This show looks amazing.
Holy F. This looks utterly stunning. Cannot wait.
I just wanted it to be brutal and grounded and I’m very happy. Just finished the book I’m so hyped! That scene with the pistols was so badass and from the book. IIE! Mariko looks gorgeous. I hope they nail Yabu he was my fav character after Toranaga.
Omg my thoughts exactly!!
This is my second favourite Tai-pan is just..... perfect James Clavell was a master at this kind off story.
Yabu was the most complex character, thats for sure, my favorite as well.
In the original series Yabu was played by a famous comedian/funny man in Japan. Seeing him as someone who boiled men alive was a shock to many in Japan. I love the original series and the book is my all time favorite book. The original series did a good job of condensing the story around Blackthorn over three nights to make an intelligible story. With a larger series we will hopefully get more of the story from the book which had to be left out for the original series.
i remember the old movie, i loved it a lot. cant wait for the release
The huge cauldron torture left me speechless... what a world.
I look forward to it!
No man alive is able to fit in Mifune-san's footsteps. But if someone comes very close, then it's Sanada-san. Love the man since Ujio in Last Samurai. As long time fan (almost 40 years now) of the book and the 80s TV series, I'm looking forward to this one. Goosebumps and tears. Can't wait to meet Toranaga and Blackthorne again!
I also like Ken Watanabe. I read that he was offered the lead role in Crouching Tiger but turned it down. He does great stuff.
@@galept I like Watanabe-san as well. Great actor. But I don't see him in Crouching Tiger at all. Chow Yun-Fat is a versatile martial artist and fits way better on the role. Ken is only trained in Kendo, I think.
The cringe is real, Gaijin. 🤢🤮
There are two ways to depict Tokugawa Ieyasu (and by extension, Toranaga) in popular culture: as a charismatic leader that is patient and knows how to wait for the right time and lay down when needed (conceding Hideyoshi to rule Japan after the battles of Komaki and Nagakute) or as a cunning fox that can deal with alliances and politics (rise to power and establishing a shogunate). Toshiro Mifune’s interpretation of Toranaga was the first one, the gentle, and as he is unrivaled it is logical for Sanada to go the other route, the cunning. That way he doesn’t engage in a battle he cannot win against Mifune’s interpretation, give us something original instead of copying the acting we already have from the first Shogun series, and has room to shine for himself and not under another’s shadow.
From the trailer above, it does not look like it. Women beating up men in physical fights? Lady Mariko (the No. 1 woman in the story) was a strong (in character) woman in the original Michener's expansive novel (and a worthy story co-protagonist) but she was not involved in any physical fight with men, let alone win one.
I literally do not think ive ever been so excited to watch a show
This is a fantastic book. Easily one of my all time favorites. It looks like they at least took seriously
Wow. I have long wanted to watch such Japanese films about shinobi samurai and about Japan Ancient and the Middle Ages, especially like this. I'll watch this movie. =) ❤
I loved Hiroyuki Sanada on The Last Ship.
That was where I first saw him and I was very impressed with his acting there. Feels like a Japanese Liam Neeson type actor.
I recieved the book "Shogun" as a gift in hardcover version almost 30 years ago and I still have it. Read it it cover to cover every year even though it starts falling apart. After finishing, I pick up another book. Eiji Yoshikawa "Musashi". It fits perfectly in the time line. Highly recommended.
My favourite book. I have read it 4 times. I cannot wait for this!
The scale of it looks like it should be a film at the cinema and not a tv show. Looks fantastic, cant wait to see it.
Oh its a tv show? Nice more episodes than 2 hours movie
Go out and buy yourself an 80 inch flat screen TV and sit six feet from it. Don’t forget to crank the volume up.
It would have to be couple movies, one wouldn't have do it justice.
Covid and the dumbing down of society killed the cinema. Im suprised we still get good movies and tv shows at all
Bro forgot that TV series bring more money so the scale is bigger
Sometimes books shape our lives, particularly when you read them as a young person: Shogun blew my fkn MIND!!! I hope this is as good as it looks...
Wow. This is a must.
