the year 1600, Shōgun stars Cosmo Jarvis
as John Blackthorne, an
risk taking English sailor who finds himself marooned in a fishing
village in feudal
Japan, a land whose unfamiliar culture will ultimately redefine him.
He’s soon embroiled in a fierce civil war swirling around the
besieged Lord Yoshii Toranaga (played byHiroyuki Sanada),
with only translator
Toda Mariko (played by young Anna Sawai) - a woman with invaluable skills but dishonorable family ties, who must prove her value and allegiance - to bridge the gap between the two men. While
serving her lord amidst this fraught political landscape, Mariko must
reconcile her newfound companionship with Blackthorne, her commitment to
the faith that saved her and her duty to her late father. Check out the final trailer from FX and tell us what you think, will you be watching and are you excited or not? Do you think it will be better than the original series with Richard Chamberlaine?
