now? he has been out on the international scene since the last samurai (21 years ago), played in many big movies and tv shows since then as the host literally said in the beginning of this video
@@icyveins-24 yea i dont get ppl saying this. Dude is a legend, if he's on a movie (hollywood) i will most likely watch it because i know he's a blockbuster. lol he wanted to have more protagonist roles though, and this show gave him the opportunity.
@hungrydrago He is like the most prolific Japanese actor in Hollywood given how many good movies he’s in. He’s been big ever since The Last Samurai. He’s legit and legendary in his own way.
I was in the same showcase with her over 10 years ago it’s a show business thing and many people could be mean but she was only the woman who was very kind and genuine to me… is what I remember. She is literally the true superstar and she is gonna be more successful.
I had no idea he was also a producer of the show. That's fantastic! Given his vast experience of period dramas, and love of his culture, that brings a lot to the project. No wonder it's so great.
There was a behind the scenes clip where after doing a scene in full armor, he quickly removes it all and proceeded go to one other scene as an advisor behind the camera.
Anna Sawai is too beautiful to be human. Also really looking forward to this Shogun. Saw the original. I hope this will be great and I am actually pretty confident it will be.
I love how much the word 'authenticity' comes up when the makers and actors talk about this, because it's absolutely what they should be striving for. Accuracy comes from real history, but Shogun is historical fiction telling a story analogous to real events. So to hear that adhering to the spirit of history, of the period and that culture is what was foremost in their minds is good to hear.
Sanada and Sawai are exceptional actors and one of a kind.👌👌 "Shogun" FX Series is one of the best series ever. I hope to see more of this series as it really was fabulous 👏👏
Thank you Mr Sanada to make it happen on this kind of film !! Also lovely to hear the actress’s speech too, we Japanese women appreciated what she said, thank you!! From 🇯🇵
She’s not really Japanese... It’s funny to hear “our” culture, “our”…she’s actually a New Zealander and her parents are not even Japanese just Japanese descendants (meaning she’s not really brought up in a Japanese family setting). I mean we can tell right? No Japanese women here in Japan think our past actresses always played too strong or too reserved Japanese characters, we have great films played by actually really beautiful Japanese actresses. She’s not Japanese at all in this sense. Just because she’s a Japanese descendant she’s not Japanese. I don’t know her at all and she’s not famous in Japan.
I’m so proud of Anna❤I hoped but I didn’t expect her to succeed in her career as actor this much…just amazing…I have been supporting her since she was the leader of girl group FAKY. It was so sad to have seen her leaving the group in 2018. but she pursued her dreams without giving up and there she is today👏✨
The moment the camera caught her coming into the room and the camera comes around her to show her face I was stunned at her beauty She is incredibly beautiful
I think it's something I picked up from watching the show that a culture that exists so long has so much time to refine its customs and its mannerisms very beautiful and elegant. Everything so well thought out
@@user-xc4pk6fi5l i thought you were implying a very long period of time like you are telling an ancient time story which is a very usual on a movie like lord of the rings which begins saying a long time ago by the narrator..! Maybe it's a good thing to tell us you would say i haven't seen him quite some time instead of a long time ago..!
I cannot think of any other actor who could carry on the torch for Toshiro Mifune as Lord Yoshi Toronaga than Hiroyuki Sanada. And Anna Sawai is a very worthy successor to Yoko Shimada as Lady Toda Buntaro. I expect this to be a amazing show.
Also looking forward to seeing Sanada return as Scorpion in MK2! He was one of the few highlights of the first movie. I hope for more screentime in the next one.
Having read "Shogun" in 1980, was excited to see TV adaptation. Though not Japanese, was brought up around Japanese culture via Dad's step-mom(Domo arigato, Yuriko) Hawaiian culture/lifestyle has been Heavily intertwined by Japanese culture. Can't wait to see what/how neo-Shogun differs, or not, from book.
I'm not familiar with Anna Sawai, but Hiroyuki Sanada is really excellent. I've seen him in many shows and movies. I've always been impressed with his acting.
I like to watch sanada on movies,and waiting a long time for him on main character , but Anna is really beautiful She has a really intriguing personality.
Honestly, I love the Japanese culture and have so much respect for it and should be preserved. Appreciate keeping to the historical and accurate representation of it.
Sawai-san looks exactly like a Japanese woman who grew up abroad. There aren't many people in Japan who do this kind of makeup. I wonder if this is what foreigners imagine Japanese women to be like because people like her appear on foreign media. Of course she is beautiful!!
I still remember Blackthorne's Japanese lessons with Mariko. The difference between San and Sama and the difference between Wakari mashita and Wakari masen. But Sanada has a very large shoes to fill though, those of the legendary Toshiro Mifune no less.
People should watch or react on the 6-minute video of the world of shōgun, background and history… it kinda gives the audience like a bird’s-eye view about what the show really is.
@@monologos_ chill dude your comment gives away your FRICKING age… lol. I said the video only gives a bird’s-eye view about the show and not the entire story itself…
We are so proud of him to been a great actor in America for long time. And also thank you for bring to the world our culture correctly. I know it's really hard work. No doubt to be amazing TV show. 私は、真田広之さんが長い間アメリカで素晴らしい俳優として頑張っていらっしゃることを、同じ日本人としてとても誇りに思います。ずっと応援しています。このドラマを通して日本の文化を正しく世界へ伝えようとするその努力に感動しました。日本のクルーの皆様と共に素晴らしいドラマとなることは間違いないでしょう。楽しみです！
Sanada san was famous actor in Japan from many decades ago but it’s so nice to see his talent is recognized outside Japan now.
now? he has been out on the international scene since the last samurai (21 years ago), played in many big movies and tv shows since then as the host literally said in the beginning of this video
@@icyveins-24 yea i dont get ppl saying this. Dude is a legend, if he's on a movie (hollywood) i will most likely watch it because i know he's a blockbuster. lol he wanted to have more protagonist roles though, and this show gave him the opportunity.
He’s amazing in the Last Samaurai
I feel as though he is more famous outside of Japan. As someone living in Japan.
He is stereotype in hollywood tho he has a lot of deeper and complex roles in japan him and tadanobou asano.
It’s about time Sanada gets his due. Amazing screen presence
He’s become a legend. He’s in so many Hollywood movies.

I wanna visit Japón some day , honestly that’s a dream to go there!!!
Hiroyuki San doesn't seem to age. Love his films
Hiroyuki Sanada is a legend! Great actor and fantastic martial artist! Can't wait to see this series!

This Japanese guy actor is in so many Hollywood movies, and he’s great. I will never forget his performance in the The Last Samurai movie.
💯 loved him as Ujio in that movie.
He is also in the " 47 Ronin"
Anna Sawai is too beautiful to be human.
Also really looking forward to this Shogun. Saw the original. I hope this will be great and I am actually pretty confident it will be.
What I thought as well! So, she is not…
That’s what I said
Give an Emmy to Sanada. I have seen him for so long. He deserves the recognition.
Mr. Sanada is not just great actor and producer but great person wo has kind and sincere personality.
I love how much the word 'authenticity' comes up when the makers and actors talk about this, because it's absolutely what they should be striving for. Accuracy comes from real history, but Shogun is historical fiction telling a story analogous to real events. So to hear that adhering to the spirit of history, of the period and that culture is what was foremost in their minds is good to hear.
He's one of my favorite actors of all time! A legend!
I like how Mr. Sanada’s demeanor in real life is sooo different from his onscreen characters. He seems to be such a shy low key gentleman.
It is just a ruse, he is on his way to become the prime minister of Japan 😅
I don't think he's shy, I'd say "humble", instead. Which is a great quality.
"Kia ora Anna" - From Aotearoa, NZ....Thank you for being you!!!...and so Proud!!!
Hiroyuki Sanada is one the best actor right now.
I first read the book in 1979 as a high school student. I have read it twice since. Cannot wait for this series. ❤
Where can I get this book? What’s the name of the book if u don’t mind.. ? I would love to read it..
@@livingcooking4659"Shogun" of course at Amazon
@@livingcooking4659 same name, Shōgun.
Sanada is made for the camera. he is one guy who elevates everything he is in. he is one of those people who can make bad movies look good
Sanada used to be one of the student actors at the actors school of Sunny Chiba. He must be very proud of Sanada’s success in the heaven.
The Street Fighter is still really amazing to watch
@@egbertmcfliesterheimer7133 Shinichi
I saw the original when I was about 10 years Old and I loved it ! and I know with these two actors the new version is going to be absolutely epic !
every second of the show is so captivating, each week become so long until the new episode is out. OMG!
Sanada and Sawai are exceptional actors and one of a kind.👌👌
"Shogun" FX Series is one of the best series ever.
I hope to see more of this series as it really was fabulous 👏👏
いつまでもカッコイイ😊
リベンジが途中で役者変わったのは嫌だったけど、こんなに活躍してくれるのは本当に嬉しいな。映画楽しみです!
映画だと思ってたら違った(´；ω；｀)ﾌﾞﾜｯ
I have been fan of Hiroyuki as a kid watching Ninja in the Dragons den.. Can't wait to see this show!
Thank you Mr Sanada to make it happen on this kind of film !!

将軍 観ました。本当に素晴らしい作品です。残りのエピソードまで待てません。🎎🏯🗾✨👘🎌
くっそカッコいい 真田さん♡
The trailer looked amazing, can't wait for it to air.
I have been a big fan of Hiroyuki Sanada since I was a kid. It's so nice to see him in different international films.
Well said. I hope this gets shown in Netflix as well for a much wider audience.👏
Hiroyuki Sanada is my hero from my local area in Tokyo, Japan 😊
she is stunning..
dude back off yellow fever much fetishization is not cool.
(European yellow color) Asian grey andistent
Sanada-san conveys such stoic respect, an absolute legend. All of this praise is well deserved for him and the entire production team.
Hiroyuki Sanada was the best student in the Sunny Chiba's stunt school, Japan Action Club (JAC) back in 1970~80.
さなださん、「ちゃんとした日本の文化を伝えたかった」と今までのハリウッドを間接的に否定していてすげえなと思ったよこれは
Sanada-san has aged well.
im so excited for this!!!!
Hiroyuki Sanada needs his own MARTIAL ARTS ACTION MOVIE!
Hiroyuki Sanada❤❤ ❤
My favourite actor! I liked him since The Ring movie. ❤
I’m so proud of Anna❤I hoped but I didn’t expect her to succeed in her career as actor this much…just amazing…I have been supporting her since she was the leader of girl group FAKY. It was so sad to have seen her leaving the group in 2018. but she pursued her dreams without giving up and there she is today👏✨
This is going to be so good. And I love that man!😊
I first read the book in 1979 as a high school student. I have read it twice since. Cannot wait for this series.
I think he is the best star in Japan❤
Am so excited for this show
I can’t wait to start watching it this weekend. Hiroyuki Sanada is one of my favorite actors.
The moment the camera caught her coming into the room and the camera comes around her to show her face I was stunned at her beauty
She is incredibly beautiful
These two are everywhere ❤ give me shogun now!!!
Hiro(hero)yuki! 👍
i really loved his performance of Ashikaga Takauji back in the early 1990s. I remember watching it on a UHF station in NYC. Great actor.
I appreciate that Japanese actors were cast. I don’t love it when Asian actors from all different countries are used interchangeably.
Sanada the Best!!
Hiroyuki Sanada moved to America when he was really popular in Japan . I am so glad to see him again !! He is a great actor !!
Such an amazing (extremely attractive) actress and the best Japanese actor in one movie.. wow.!
I think it's something I picked up from watching the show that a culture that exists so long has so much time to refine its customs and its mannerisms very beautiful and elegant. Everything so well thought out
Anna Sawai kind of reminds me of Suzu Hirose! Beautiful beyond words!
I haven't seen Hiroyuki Sanada for a long time... Though I am surprised how much he became speaking English this much fluently.
So you haven't seen john wick 4 which released earlier he was (Sanada) there..!😢😢😢
@@petmalufunnyanimalschannel2266 Also was in the Mortal Kombat reboot film...
@@petmalufunnyanimalschannel2266 how long ago?

I'm about halfway through the Original 1980 "Shogun" series and it's pretty good, when I'm finished I will decide to watch this new one.
I cannot think of any other actor who could carry on the torch for Toshiro Mifune as Lord Yoshi Toronaga than Hiroyuki Sanada. And Anna Sawai is a very worthy successor to Yoko Shimada as Lady Toda Buntaro. I expect this to be a amazing show.
Also looking forward to seeing Sanada return as Scorpion in MK2! He was one of the few highlights of the first movie. I hope for more screentime in the next one.
一年後でも良いから、地上波で放映してくれませんか？❤出来ればネットの閉じた空間じゃなくて､オープンな上映､放送にしてほしい。もったいない。
So glad he finally got a lead role.

お二人とも、、かっこよすぎます🥹👌
I am just in episode 1 and I instantly hooked in.
I'm not familiar with Anna Sawai, but Hiroyuki Sanada is really excellent. I've seen him in many shows and movies. I've always been impressed with his acting.
The two episodes are a hook! A candidate for the best historical/fictional drama series of 2024
Oh wow the First episode is on my Birthday....definitely gonna watch this Beautiful Woman & Samurai Action!
I hope you had a great birthday
No idea Sanada-san also is a producer on the show. That's great! I hope he is as pleased with the results as the audience seems to be.
影の軍団初期から大ファンだった✨真田さん💕👏👏👏
これからもファンで見守り応援しています💌🥰
こういう根性のある役者が、これからの世代で出てくるのか非常に心配。
I like to watch sanada on movies,and waiting a long time for him on main character , but Anna is really beautiful She has a really intriguing personality.
Honestly, I love the Japanese culture and have so much respect for it and should be preserved. Appreciate keeping to the historical and accurate representation of it.
The series so far is excellent. I remember the old one from the 80s, it was great but I see they went the extra mile here. More production.
自分にとって真田広之さんと言えば、高校教師。まさか世界的な知名度を誇る俳優、そして監督になるとは！そして、アンナさんをこのドラマで初めて知ったけど、完璧なバイリンガルでとても魅力的な女優さん。これからもお二人のご活躍を期待しています。
Last samurai is still my favorite role of his, he is an awsome actor who really embodies that samurai culture.
Sawai-san looks exactly like a Japanese woman who grew up abroad. There aren't many people in Japan who do this kind of makeup.
I wonder if this is what foreigners imagine Japanese women to be like because people like her appear on foreign media.
Of course she is beautiful!!
It's an authentic Japanese Jidai Geki even from Japanese perspective. Well done Sanada San!!
So excited about this
When Phil Lipof say Shogun, it sounds like Shotgun. It actually should be more like show goon.
Amazing show. Read the book when I was 13 and watched with Richard Chamberlin. This show is beautiful. Only issue is WAITING ON THE NEXT ONE! :)
I still remember Blackthorne's Japanese lessons with Mariko. The difference between San and Sama and the difference between Wakari mashita and Wakari masen. But Sanada has a very large shoes to fill though, those of the legendary Toshiro Mifune no less.
With all the crap coming out of Hollywood, this might be the breath of fresh air I’ve been waiting for.
Having seen the first two episodes today, my goodness, I am rapt.
He was awesome as Scorpion.
People should watch or react on the 6-minute video of the world of shōgun, background and history… it kinda gives the audience like a bird’s-eye view about what the show really is.
Its a work of art! :)
Yeah right, read a fricking book, then come and tell us how this Hulu BS is authentic and piece of art.
You've read Shogun by James Clavell?@@monologos_
@@monologos_ chill dude your comment gives away your FRICKING age… lol. I said the video only gives a bird’s-eye view about the show and not the entire story itself…
This show is super nice.
I watch anything with Sanada in it, he's the genuine article
Sanada is my favorite Japanese actor
my favorite new series!
These two are an awesome treasure for humanity! An amazing show with an amazing culture!
Seems to be so historically accurate....Very enjoyable to watch.
The idea that Fuji was looking after Blackthorne after losing her baby and husband gave her a new purpose in life.
Great series. I didn't watch the 80's version but this new version is awesome.
You sense the allure of feminine divinity, against masculine masterclass of martial arts... every network wants this. This needs to be universal.
Love Hiro!!♥️❤️

The acting was another level.
