There's not a single scene that Hiroyuki Sanada has ever been in where his mere presence alone doesn't steal the show. The man is a force on screen. Can't wait for this.
It looks amazing. Hiroyuki Sanada is one of the few actors out there that could fill the late Toshiro Mifune's shoes. The novel is loosely based on William Adams, an English sailor who shipwrecked off the coast of Japan, and his relationship with the shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu. I saw a few of the filming locations from the original series when I lived in Japan. I can't wait to see this.
I can't wait for this as well. I live in Gillingham, Kent UK where Will Adams came from and from that came my love of Japan. I agree that Hiroyuki Sanada is up there with the late great Toshiro Mifune as an actor and ideal for the part of Toranaga.
100%. Oftentimes the trailers for movies nowadays show every critical or interesting scene. If you even decide to see the movie it feels as though you've already seen it.
What do you mean? It's such a typical Hollywood movie I can already guess the plot. These white people go to "discover" Japan and they run into resistance from local culture, but eventually they settle their differences and the white man sleeps with the exotic Asian girl. The same plot has been done a million times already 🤣🤣
@@darthvadeth6290don’t forget that the main Japanese guy is going to stick to tradition and it’ll kill him in some way. Only if he forewent everything he knew all his life and just believed in the white man things would have turned out better for him. Then everything will crumble but somehow the white man and the girl escape
Hiroyuki Sanada is an actor that has mastered the portrayal of subtle emotional intensity in all of his best roles. He is the only choice for an authentic personification of Shogun Yaesu Tokugawa.
This looks incredible. I am such a fan of the books and the audiobooks. Its difficult to tell in 2 trailers but so far they have the tone of the story, at least visually. The cast looks good also. High hopes for this one. I personally cannot wait, this feels like an early Christmas present.
I also loved the book, and the trailers do look impressive, but i am abit worried : so far, Blacktorne seems like a supporting character. The focus seems to be on Toranaga ,Mariko. And the books hero was Blackthorne, with the clash of the west and east culture being the central theme. It might be a different approach that will work, but it does worry me a bit.
Adding to my previous comment, there seems to be a trend of taking an established IP, using some names and some details, but in reality telling a tottaly different story, which usually sucks. (for example Halo tv serie , Rings of Power...)
@@firestarter000001 That was I thought when I read the book but in the end Toranaga planned everything and Blackthorne is just a chess piece. A bit disappointed because Blackthorne was my hero but the author plays our mind in the end.
It’s actually what I was thinking.. at the end blackthorne was only a rebel falcon that needs some training and Toronaga shows why he is what he is.. I guess that’s why the name of the book is Xogun 😅 I love this book btw. I definitely understand a bit of the essence of Japanese culture
I hope Hiroyuki Sanada has plenty of action screen time in this TV series. He’s utterly amazing and ferocious when displaying samurai fighting skills. A true samurai star he is.
Hiroyuki Sanada is playing Yoshii Toranaga / Tokugawa Ieyasu a daimyo and shouldn't be wandering around swinging a katana to please anime weebs. But given that it looks like Mariko is now a ninja so I don't hold up much hope.
Not alot or people know but Hiroyuki Sanada was a star of ninja, samurai, and shogun action movies in the 80's.....he was in his 20's at the time. When I first saw some of his recent movies, I barely recognized him until I googled him. Been a fan of him for over 30 years. Great great actor.
I've been reading this book for the better part of 35 years. It is my favorite book. And it looks (so far) very much like they are actually keeping to the book, which is fantastic. While I love the 1980 version, compared to the book it was so watered down it practically constituted a completely different story... just with the same names. This one, however... much, much more like the novel. Time (and February) will tell how much in line it will actually be.
when they wrote the mini series screenplay, clavell handed them the book with all the parts written from the japanese perspective removed. He said it would make audiences connect to the outsider Blackthorn. I've read the book a dozen times, and I love it.
This is not like the book, are you sure you read the book? None of his scenes are right so far. Warriors with spears are retreating from Mariko, and she is spinning and fighting with acrobatic elements like some comic book hero??? And there wasn't even a scene where Blackthorne was blindfolded so he couldn't see. The original film series couldn't deliver the story, but the characters and location brilliantly portrayed feudal Japan. This is a manga-matrix-game-of-thrones crap right now. Someone has already read an extract from the book and the script written from it. A typically dyslexic Hollywood solution.
This looks awesome. I've read the book and kind of like the original mini series. But, this looks next level. If it's as good as the trailer makes it look, I'll end up buying the buleray of it.
I watched the 1980 miniseries 'Shogun' at the time. Although 'Shogun' is a work of fiction, it explores the major war that actually took place in Japan in 1600, known as The Battle of Sekigahara. Tokugawa Ieyasu, who emerged victorious in this war (referred to as 'Toranaga' in 'Shogun'), became the shogun (officially known as 'seii-taishogun',or the de facto ruler of Japan), and for almost 270 years thereafter, his descendants became the Shogun. While 'Shogun' is a work of fiction, the main characters are based on real historical figures (though their names have been changed), and their characterizations and roles generally follow historical facts. The protagonist of 'Shogun' is William Adams (refererd to as 'Blackthorne' in 'Shogun'), an Englishman who actually washed ashore in Japan on a Dutch ship in 1600, becoming the first Englishman to set foot in Japan. In reality, he played no role in The Battle of Sekigahara, but later served in diplomatic capacities as an advisor to Tokugawa Ieyasu, who granted him territory (present-day Miura Peninsula), turning him into a samurai. Also, Toda Mariko, one of the key characters in "Shogun," is modeled after Tamako (later known as 'Hosokawa Gracia'), the wife of Hosokawa Tadaoki (referred to as 'Lord Toda Buntaro' in 'Shogun') . Hosokawa Tadaoki 's father was a vassal of Oda Nobunaga (the dominant figure in Japan at the time)and a close friend of Akechi Mitsuhide(a prominent retainer of Oda Nobunaga). Due to the friendship between his father and Mitsuhide, Tadaoki married Mitsuhide's daughter, Tamako. After the Honnouji Incident mentined below, he became a retainer of Hashiba Hideyoshi (referred to as 'Nakamura' in 'Shogun'). Following Hideyoshi's death in 1598 and the subsequent division and conflict between pro-Tokugawa Ieyasu and anti-Tokugawa Ieyasu factions in Japan, Tadaoki sided with the Ieyasu faction. In 1582, Tamako's father, Mitsuhide betrayed Oda Nobunaga and assassinated him in the Honnoji Incident. However, just 13 days later, Mitsuhide himself was defeated and killed at the Battle of Yamazaki by another influential retainer of Oda Nobunaga, above-mentined Hideyoshi (referred to as 'Nakamura' in 'Shogun'), who later unified Japan. Even after the Honnoji Incident, Hosokawa Tadaoki did not divorce Tmako. However, as the daughter of a traitor, she endured a difficult life thereafter. She later converted to Catholicism and was given Christian name 'Gracia'). As mentined above, when Hideyoshi died in 1598, Japan split into the Tokugawa camp and the anti-Tokugawa camp, leading to conflict. 'Shogun' is set against this historical backdrop." In the year 1600, about 2 months before the Battle of Sekigahara, Tamako's residence was besieged by forces opposing Tokugawa Ieyasu. Refusing to surrender, she died. In 'Shogun' Toda Mariko's death is depicted following this historical fact. While 'Shogun' depicts the cruelty of Japanese samurai, it's worth noting that the author, James Clavell, was a prisoner of war in Japan during World War II, experiencing captivity until the end of the war. I feel that some of his experiences are reflected in 'Shogun.' The trailer gives an impression reminiscent of 'Game of Thrones,' and it seems to be quite different from the previous works of the 1980s. I am looking forward to watching it.
Having read the book multiple times having seen the original miniseries multiple times knowing all of the fascinating bits that make up the story this looks very promising hopefully it will be longer than ten hour long episodes🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
All my life I've been telling ppl to read the book(s). No one listened. Now they're gonna learn. :D because this looks frighteningly awesome and true to James Clavell.
Hit it if you have watched the " shogun world " in the legendary series " Westworld " . Hiroyuki Sanada is a 21 century samurai. I always get goosebumps when i see the Katana or the tanto.
Hold your horses it is today Netshit after all (years ago quality of the N shows was better today not so much e The Shiter from Lauren Shitrich exception being the korean dramas like Kingdom but in that case Netflix only gives cash and fock off).
It’s somewhat subjective who the main character of this story is though. The main character is only really one of many cog’s in this story. The main plot revolves around Tokugawa/Toronaga
@@liamwright2510 While they certainly give some alone scenes to the future Shogun, he is not person who Japan and the adventure is told through the eyes of. Blackthorne is the main character.
I recognize a few of the scenes, like when Kashigi Yabu rescues Rodriguez. I hope they keep more true to the books unlike the 1980s version. The book Shogun was good historical fiction and I would like the TV series to remain that way.
80's mini-series wasn't that far off, just all from the perspective of the foreigners. While half of the book was from the perspective of the Japanese.
@@user-nz6dx2fj6h Which is still wrong. That word, nor name, does not exist in the Japanese language. The closet is kasegi, which means spoon. It was arrogance or edited incorrectly.
The book is utterly awesome! The depth and complexity of the characters, the cultural dynamics (Japanese, Portugese, English and even Dutch) blended with the factual history of the times makes the 1000+ pages go by entirely too quickly. I have the book in paperback, on my kindle and of course the dvd's of the television series (11 hours). My favorite book by far and I read it at least every couple of years.
This is a fictional account by James Clavell. The characters in the story did not exist, in much the same way as 'The Last Samurai' movie. I do hope they try to have some accuracy for 1600 Japan.
@@putinscat1208if they can show a realistic depiction of The Shogunate I'm cool with that it's a movie not a documentary and we all know most movies either leave out a lot of important facts or create their own version of the historical events to make the storyline more entertaining

@@BKLYN_TZU SciFi, I will accept anything people come up with. Cause it hasn't happened yet. But historical based shows, they better do their homework or they will loose people.

This looks way better than the tv version from the 1980 . This version shows more of what mediaeval Japan would have been like during that time, and the war between the different shogunets .
There's not a single scene that Hiroyuki Sanada has ever been in where his mere presence alone doesn't steal the show. The man is a force on screen. Can't wait for this.

Agreed. Hiroyuki Sanada is a force. I just saw him John Wick 4, and the guy just doesn't give a bad performance. He has gravitas for miles...
Hiroyuki is incredible, but to say he's on par with Toshiro is pushing it a little lmao.
I don't know yet if he can do that. But I am hopeful.
I can't wait for this as well. I live in Gillingham, Kent UK where Will Adams came from and from that came my love of Japan. I agree that Hiroyuki Sanada is up there with the late great Toshiro Mifune as an actor and ideal for the part of Toranaga.
Are you kidding.
Teasers like this with little to no dialogue can be so much more effective than a 3-minute trailer that shows you way too much.

One of my top 5 favourite books of all time. The 1980s mini series was very good, especially for its time. I look forward to seeing this 2024 version.
I thought so too, except for the helicopter in the opening shot.
I trailer that has no words justs music but it stills gets the level of intensity across.
Almost. One word is uttered, and that is "No" in Japanese. Still a great trailer with just the narrator.
Hiroyuki Sanada = automated thumbs up.

Hiroyuki Sanada is a great actor. He was incredible in Danny Boyle's 2007 Sunshine, I'm sure he'll be incredible here too.
I hope Hiroyuki Sanada has plenty of action screen time in this TV series. He’s utterly amazing and ferocious when displaying samurai fighting skills. A true samurai star he is.
He won't if this show actually follows the plot of the novel. His character is a high level, high stakes player, not some lowly sword fighter.
Toranaga engages in the sword play of the mind. And he is a master player.
Hiroyuki Sanada is playing Yoshii Toranaga / Tokugawa Ieyasu a daimyo and shouldn't be wandering around swinging a katana to please anime weebs. But given that it looks like Mariko is now a ninja so I don't hold up much hope.
