Sanada sama is one of the greatest actors and one of the greatest producers ever. Trying to make everything authentic like it should be! I’m old enough to remember the “old time” actors of color who were “white” but made to look Asian or Native American. This film will so incredible and absolutely beautiful!! 🥰🌹🇯🇵
Hiro hasn’t aged in 20 years lmao. But I’m so happy for them. I know for sure that this show would be good and I will like it. I’m also happy that Hiro-San getting the recognition he deserve he is such an amazing actor and my favorite actor of all time🎉❤
For those who don’t know Hiroyuki in his young age,I want you to watch any kind of his movie or tv drama even if you don’t understand Japanese. He was so handsome and his voice was so sexy.
Thank you for bringing Japanese representation to Hollywood, Sanada-san! 🙏 For too long, Japanese characters have been represented by other “Asian” actors. I’m so proud to finally see an authentic Japanese cast! Watch the extras for Shogun; the production of this show is off the charts when it comes to detail and accuracy. ❤
Yeah, it’s nice to see nihonjins or even nikkeijin in a Japanese themed IP, vs. Tokyo Drift with random Asians or no Asians being cast as the main leads.
Hiroyuki has been chronically under utilized in America. Watch The Twilight Samurai to see his greatness. I am so glad he is finally getting his chance.
真田さんがアメリカで讃えられる事は我々日本人にとっても誇りに思う。そして何より嬉しい事は、偉大なハリウッドで日本の侍時代をリアルに表現する為に沢山のスタッフや関係者が団結した事が素晴らしい。文化や国境を超えて、みんなが一つの作品に魂を注ぎ込む姿勢そのものが、まさに侍である。Thank you very much indeed.
I really really appreciate the way Hollywood produces foreign stories in the past decade or so by having local people speak the actual local language with each other, instead of a heavily-accented English. To me that is a huge plus and makes the stories way more immersive as they are being told.
Can I just say, I'm sooooo glad Hiroyuki Sanada is finally getting the recognition he deserves 😍 The man is such an under rated actor, thespian really and deserves all the success. Would love to see him in more movies and shows. Here's an idea Hollywood; a Predator film set in feudal Japan, starring Hiroyuki Sanada as a masterless Ronin taking hell of a revenge for the death of his master 😍😍😉🤙🤙🔥💪
I loved him in Rush Hour that was the first time I saw him and then popped up in Mortal kombat and now this. Now I feel like I need to see older movies of him because he is just amazing
This is just about time for this novel to be transcended into film. Such a timepiece where real Japan is shown with all its glorious and authentic culture magnified in film.
Mr. Sanada is obviously one of the greatest actors evaluated not only in Japan but around the world as well as talented producer. I'm very happy to see that he is now admitted even in overseas. I will never forget his starring role as Shogun Ashikaga Takauji in the very famous TV show "Taiheiki" that was produced about 20 years ago.
Such a fantastic series! Hiro, who is awesome in everything he does, really crushed it in this piece! As did Anna! Beautiful series. Wonderful storytelling. Truly a masterpiece!
I must say after watching the first 2 episodes, Shogun has me fully invested. The show is full fully detailed its hard to believe. The story has my full attention and impatiently waiting for the next episode 3
Sanada san’s mastery of the sword is well known but at times what is overlooked is his mastery and craft in acting. His training with the RSC and role in King Lear effected his Honorary Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE). In all his interviews from the past decades, his virtue of kenkyo or humbleness is evident so talk of acting awards would be moot. However, we admirers of his craft would love to see him be awarded a Golden Globe and someday an Oscar for his contributions to acting.
Shogun is profound in story, locale/set, atmosphere, score, script and above all, acting. SO many incredible performances, episode after episode including and especially Sawai and Sanada, above. Seriously if you have not checked this series out, you're missing something amazing. I would also be remiss to not give huge props to Tadanobu Asano and his performance as the likeable and yet very complex Kashigi Yabushige; survivalist, pragmatist and a tense but light-hearted balance of "regular" person evolving a deep loyalty as time passes. Great show!!
Mr. Sanada started his celebrity life when he was a little boy. He was so handsome and cute from childhood. He had a lot of master pieces in his life so far. He is a brilliant artist , producer, and celebrity.😊😊😊
Hopefully he gets an Emmy for his role in this series. Idk if Hollywood will ever cast him in a lead role, Hollywood doesn't seem to cast Asians for lead roles, but if anything, hopefully he can get "Best Supporting Actor" for an Oscar someday. There are some really talented Asian Actors out there, Hollywood just needs to start casting them in lead roles. Hiroyuki Sanada, Steven Yeun, Charles Melton, etc.
@@madtitan0825 The only thing is, it's still very early in the year. Still 10 months left to go, so there could be many other great candidates. Also, it's only been 2 episodes of Shogun, his character could get killed off in the next episode, highly unlikely but possible. Lol
Really cool to see someone like Hiroyuki Sanada finally getting some major recognition from his work in John Wick 4 and Shogun. Fun fact: Sanada actually shares a birthday with me (October 12)!
When I heard that Shogun was being made,I crossed my fingers that Sanadasan was involved. Just started watching. It's gorgeous and epic. A fantastic production.
This guy is such an amazing actor and in countless great movies: Sunshine, 47 Ronin, Shogun, John Wick, The Last Samurai.........the list just goes on and on.
He is such a fantastic actor, but more importantly a genuine humble, and kind gentleman. Darn fine martial artist too.
❤
well said! 😊💯👏
Perfect ❤
Excelente personalidad tiene Hiroyuki Sanada, y bella Ana Sawai, serie fascinante!
He’s very sweet and kind
He immigrated to the U.S. after the age of 40 and learned English. I think he is a very hard worker.
Asians are, unlike some
hmm, it seams that jhe lives in Tokyo now
Haha interesting
Immigrants are so vital for the US
He learned to pronounce word in british style if i remember
He comes alive whenever he plays a Samurai
That part!
Yup,I haven't forgotten 47 ronin,that's still a pretty good film even today.
Sanada sama is one of the greatest actors and one of the greatest producers ever. Trying to make everything authentic like it should be! I’m old enough to remember the “old time” actors of color who were “white” but made to look Asian or Native American. This film will so incredible and absolutely beautiful!! 🥰🌹🇯🇵
This is a show but the production on it looks so good so I don’t blame you for think it being a film
Old Hollywood is over haha Authentic Asian is back hihi
I hope this show wins many Emmys. Every episode has been a total winner so far
真田広之がアメリカのモーニングショーで見れるとは。長年応援してきたけれどこんなにうれしいことはありません。
Can't believe he is 63... looks incredible for his age
Japanese food, quantity and quality of lifestyle increases longevity . People are generally same weight all their life in japan.
@@gdwlaw5549Asian genes too
They made him look so much older in Shogun
@@gdwlaw5549 He lives in LA for a few decades now. 😉
As they say, 'Yellow don't mellow'. See also : Michelle Yeoh and Ming-Na Wen (Both in their 60's like Hiro-san)
Hiro hasn’t aged in 20 years lmao. But I’m so happy for them. I know for sure that this show would be good and I will like it. I’m also happy that Hiro-San getting the recognition he deserve he is such an amazing actor and my favorite actor of all time🎉❤
Once you hit max level, you don't need to level up anymore 🤩
For those who don’t know Hiroyuki in his young age,I want you to watch any kind of his movie or tv drama even if you don’t understand Japanese. He was so handsome and his voice was so sexy.
First saw him as the husband from the original The Ring
damn, you're right
he was like a kpop idol but with a heck of a mane 😄
He’s still very handsome!
he started as a child actor
He still is.
Happy for him! Usually in a supporting role..glad he is getting the spotlight and is also able to show the Japanese culture in more realistic way.
Hiroyuki is an INCREDIBLE actor and will soon win an Oscar/Emmy/Golden Globe , and the actress is very talented
We need a new Jap win after the great James Shigeta so close hahaha
Let me tell you...
Watching the first two episodes...I am dreading the fact of waiting weekly. Great work Sanada!
This show is a masterpiece.
Thank you for bringing Japanese representation to Hollywood, Sanada-san! 🙏 For too long, Japanese characters have been represented by other “Asian” actors.

East Asia
You guys need more representation in live anime movies! No more whitewashing
@@greg.peepeefaceit’s unfortunate the anime movies coming to life with no asian actors especially leads at all
Hiroyuki has been chronically under utilized in America. Watch The Twilight Samurai to see his greatness. I am so glad he is finally getting his chance.

being humble and yet being confident is what Sanada is.
Sadly many people think these things are mutually exclusive
This guy is an absolute legend, and Anna is absolutely stunning.
His voice❤He’s quite organized and confident.
日本の撮影の方式と違うので、映像が新鮮に深く感じる。全く新しい時代劇を見てるようで感動した。
違うのは方式ではなく予算のみだよお爺ちゃん
Hiroyuki Sanada is one of my favourite actors. So talented both intellectually and physically.
相変わらずカッコいいな
Sanada-san 🙌 Great actor ! 応援しています!!
Shogun deserves every ounce of praise its getting, masterpiece

I like it 😄
I loved him in Rush Hour that was the first time I saw him and then popped up in Mortal kombat and now this. Now I feel like I need to see older movies of him because he is just amazing
This show gave me old school samurai movie vibes that i havent felt in a long time. Definitely worth watching it if you havent seen it.
Amazing actors, big fan
真田広之さんの活躍を見て千葉真一さんも喜んでますよ👍
引き続き活躍される事を願ってます。
タイトルをショーガンと発音しちゃうんですね。人間椅子をニンジェンイスと読んじゃうのと同様。
So excited for this show!
Sensei from Last samurai i admire your work, i can say you are the true Last Samurai!
Very respectful interview. Love that.
omgosh! she's gorgeous!!
He is true legend, love his work, I like how he insisted to make this series authentic as possible. She is stunning and gorgeous, like a dream.
I am so excited for this show
The poster is stunning. Can’t wait to see the updated “Shogun.”
真田さんまた日本の時代劇出て欲しい
太平記は最高です
This is just about time for this novel to be transcended into film. Such a timepiece where real Japan is shown with all its glorious and authentic culture magnified in film.
I have been his fan since when he was in 里見八犬伝. So happy to see him like this. A huge success.
Shogun is a master piece of Japan history and about we Portugueses first step in the discovery of asia.
According to this series, Portuguese sounds identical to English.😁
Hiro is wonderful.😄
Mr. Sanada is obviously one of the greatest actors evaluated not only in Japan but around the world as well as talented producer. I'm very happy to see that he is now admitted even in overseas.

and me, rn waiting for episode 5.
And me waiting on ep 6
We watched it and loved it so much!
We can’t wait next episode ❤
I am enjoying watching Mr. Sanada as an actor and during such interviews. I like his restrained manner.
One of the best shows I've seen in a long time. What a lovely interview. Gorgeous series so far.
I love this man. He’s an inspiration for sure. I’ve first learned of him and his great work from the last samurai. enjoyed his work ever since
This well-known asian actor made a remarkable effort to evolve in the global film industry, transitioning from Japan to Hollywood, a true feat.
Americans being respectful is truly wonderful to see.
people churp that this man not getting enough recognition...i always thought and still do...he's a great actor.
Sanada sama looks so good for his age!
Excited for this

Incredible actors. Classic book. I loved this series. It's faithful to the book and the history. No complaints whatsoever.
Hiroyuki is the best Japanese actor ever…..
日本人が違和感を感じない日本のストーリーを作ってくれて嬉しい。
史実とは異なる文化もこのお話には出てくる様ですが、
あくまで現在の日本人が、すんなりと受け入れられる様な演出にしてくれたそうですね。
戦後生まれの私たちはGHQの政策が上手くいって、
大和魂はすっかり失ってしまったようです。
しかし、志願兵として戦争に行った私の祖父は、
確かに古い魂を持った勇敢な男でした。
He got to do it his way this time and he nailed it. Congratulations, Hiroyuki Sanada!
Sanada-san, I am amazed that he speaks fluent English.
It goes a long way when looking to appeal to North American and other international markets
I've always enjoyed the 80s version so hopefully this new version will be just as good and I'm glad Sanada was picked to play Lord Toronaga.
Every scene you feel like you are there. Unbelievably done from cast to wardrobe to scenery. Excellent show.
Hes the reason the show was so good. He literally made sure they got as much as possible correct about japanese culture, and the books.
Best series I've watched in awhile, cinematography is stunning, love the visual style.
This show is amazing every actor is fantastic and i know ill cry when its over
Shogun is profound in story, locale/set, atmosphere, score, script and above all, acting. SO many incredible performances, episode after episode including and especially Sawai and Sanada, above. Seriously if you have not checked this series out, you're missing something amazing. I would also be remiss to not give huge props to Tadanobu Asano and his performance as the likeable and yet very complex Kashigi Yabushige; survivalist, pragmatist and a tense but light-hearted balance of "regular" person evolving a deep loyalty as time passes. Great show!!
Sanada is a true legend! Perfect in every way!
Anna is just amazing and steals the show! 👏👏
I have finished watching the first two episodes. Really loved it.
1:23 - Sanada bows - a reflexive Japanese reaction to a praise
This series is amazing!
Exactly. Can't miss every second because it's always packed with actions and emotions.
Looking forward to the show
Both are excellent artists!
Shogun is simply amazing! Wau, I’ve haven’t been this entertained from a series before ❤
All the praise is deserved. Wonderful show and amazing cast.
Mr. Sanada started his celebrity life when he was a little boy. He was so handsome and cute from childhood. He had a lot of master pieces in his life so far. He is a brilliant artist , producer, and celebrity.😊😊😊
JACの頃からのファンです。
天下とりましたね!ヒロ、おめでとう🎉
It's beautiful. I love the fact that it is in Japanese. It's beautiful ❤️
love both of them. great professionals, great individuals, authentic artists
Hope one day he wins an Oscar. Damn great actor and overall a genuine and lovely gentleman!
Maybe he would be nominated for Emmy
Hopefully he gets an Emmy for his role in this series. Idk if Hollywood will ever cast him in a lead role, Hollywood doesn't seem to cast Asians for lead roles, but if anything, hopefully he can get "Best Supporting Actor" for an Oscar someday.

@@lazzi2462 with how Steven Yuen just won Emmy for his performance in Beef, highly likely

@@lazzi2462 he is literally one of the main protagonist from the novel lol, he’s not gonna die early like Ned Stark
I started watching it and I loved it. It’s a real genuine story to watch and immerse in.
This show is AMAZING!!! Every episode has been so good!
I thought it wasn’t going to match the original series from 1980, but ended up binging it. Deserves all the accolades.
i really love Sanada work. since The Last Samurai. such a great actor
Really cool to see someone like Hiroyuki Sanada finally getting some major recognition from his work in John Wick 4 and Shogun. Fun fact: Sanada actually shares a birthday with me (October 12)!
i swear to god if i ever see hiroyuki sanada in person, i will BOW and pay my respects
Very Proud of Japan. Such a wonderful Country and culture. Let's go Japan.
I'm so, glad he got the role! Perfect casting!
The young lady is stunning 😮
This is a phenomenal show and acting and choreography is so stunning!
Not only was the show just great, but the details are amazing. Just look at their cloths and costumes. They were really amazing
When I heard that Shogun was being made,I crossed my fingers that Sanadasan was involved. Just started watching. It's gorgeous and epic. A fantastic production.
Show of the year so far and will be very hard to beat.
this show is amazing
This film is a masterpiece!
Love both these actors& the show is gorgeous, Anna adds to that
Can’t wait!
She's absolutely stunning, what a beautiful woman
Mr. Sanada San is really incredible Japanese actor. I love every films involving him. Love him since my childhood.
The patterns and colors of the oufits were amazing😊!
This guy is such an amazing actor and in countless great movies: Sunshine, 47 Ronin, Shogun, John Wick, The Last Samurai.........the list just goes on and on.
Shogun is masterpiece.
10/10 indeed..cant wait for the next episode
