Shogun

Summary

Balian:“It ’s severe to shut the door . I do n’t call back we would take that off the table , but there ’s a lot of things that would have to devolve in line . It ’s not an prosperous show to mount . "

Marks:“Are there more stories to tell ? Yeah , it ’s not a despoiler to say the show does n’t end with the Red Wedding . The elbow room television works these days , it ’s always going to be a question mark . It ’s a toughened one . It takes a human price . When you keep repeating it , the show has told you what it want to be . Having say that , I do n’t have a go at it if there was ever a person on this show that could tell what it want to be , because every day it would tell us ‘ more , ’ and get harder and harder every day . "

Sawai:“If they want more , this is base on Japan ’s history , so they can make more . But sometimes it ’s well shorter ! And if Justin and Rachel are n’t doing it , I do n’t know who can . ”

Could Shōgun Become An Anthology Series?

Clavell has five other books in the Asian Saga.

Any attempts to continue the account of Lord Yoshii Toranaga ( Hiroyuki Sanada ) would have to be done without the benefit of any guide source material .

While the intense political machinations of 17th - century Japan have proven to be an intriguing backdrop forShōgun , it seems thatthe show ’s current ten - sequence run will cover the integrality of Clavell ’s original Christian Bible . Though this may not entirely discount the possibility of a season 2 , any attack to continue the tale of Lord Yoshii Toranaga ( Hiroyuki Sanada ) would have to be done without the welfare of any manoeuver source material .

FX ’s Shōgun need place at the death of the 16th century in the consequence of the Warring States period with a fictional narration base on existent events .

even so , if FX did decide to renewShōgunfor time of year 2 , there would still be innumerable tangible - life historical narrative for them to base future plots on . However , another option that could more tight echo Clavell ’s advance as the original author would be toprovide season 2 with an entirely unexampled settingand transform the FX / Hulu show into an anthology .
