I love how Cosmo bowed together with Sanada when the interviewer praised the series in the beginning 😄
i caught that too lols
Caught that too.
I love the bow. It can communicate a simple thank you or hello but can also show the utmost honour and respect to a counterpart
that is respect!
they had Japanese Gesture coaches on set
Bro got assimilated 💀
The interviewer put it well: "this show feels like it was literally shot in the past." The production design and costumes are incredible. Will win a few Emmys for sure
Doubt
I agree and that each episode feels like a movie!
The show WAS shot in the past...

I'm so annoyed by the crap streaming quality of Hulu in my country. Not a scene goes by without some sort of color banding. When I look at clips on RUclips, the show looks pristine and beautiful. Is there a chance we get a Blu Ray for this?
I love how sweet and polite Sanada is outside of his characters but in character he just carries so much weight and authority that you never once disbelieve he isn't that person.
I love the choice Cosmo made for John Blackthorne's voice and accent, it sounds so badass.
Soundin like Tom hardy
listen to Richard Burton if I did not know he was dead I would have sworn it was him.@@dannytoots6635
@@dannytoots6635 I thought the same right away
Sounds like Richard Burton to me. Brilliant
Reminds me of the hound from GoT
Hiroyuki Sanada is one of the greatest actors who steals every scene he is in, in every movie he is in. One of the greatest of all time and I will die on this hill.
He is the best, along with Ken Watanabe ❤
I'll bring snacks to that hill!
Need some drinks on that hill? I'm coming also lmao
Both of these actors are very impressive in their parts.
Came for Hiroyuki, stayed for Cosmo
I was glued to my screen for the first 2 episodes. What a fantastic series!
SAME! ... couldnt wait for episode 3, now im shaking waiting for episode 4....its SO good!
I read the book back in high school, a couple decades ago. I'm really liking this adaptation overall.
I’ve found that watching the show demands a certain amount of attention due to the fact that so much is subtitled. It prevents me from scrolling thru my phone and I love that it demands some discipline from the viewer. Now when a new episode is out every Tuesday, I get comfy, put the kettle on and have a black tea while I watch it . I’d like to read the book, but at 1100 pages I won’t be able to keep up with the episodes. It’s an amazing series so far and I’m here on RUclips looking up Cosmo Jarvis clips to find more about him. Absolutely killing it as John Blackthorne
I tried to but the commercials were suffocating.
who the feck doesnt have the attention span to leave their phone on the table for 1h ? ... damn this world is fucked.@@mickeymassage
Hiroyuki Sanada makes every movies he's in better. He is so great!
Yeah he’s not only a great actor he’s great at choosing scripts
@@Mrturtlestomps Well, except for Mortal Kombat 😬
@@Trepanation21 he was literally the only good thing about that movie though... Him and the guy that played Sub Zero, Joe Taslim who was also in The Raid: Redemption
@@Trepanation21 you got a point there lol
@@Trepanation21 Would say that Hiroyuki was one, if not the only good thing in Mortal Kombat
This production of Shogun is brilliant. Not just the cast, the costumes, the scenery... but also the camera work and the work of light and the soundtrack. Bloody brilliant! And I love the fact that it's multilingual.
While I would have enjoyed the Portuguese to actually speak Portuguese for full immersion, it would have probably turned away some segments of the audience from continuing to watch a show with so many subtitles. However, I don't mind the subtitles at all and to me it's great to hear the back and forth in English and Japanese.
Indeed.. almost forgot that this series is mostly in japanese... lol... incredible series
@@ericconnor8251 Same, would've loved if they included Portoguese too. I always try to watch everything in its native language for immersion but i can understand that may have been a bit much, plus imagine the confusion on set working with 3 languages.
Damn. Cosmo sounds so different from John Blackthorne.
Cosmo Jarvis is a really diverse actor. Check out his other stuff.
I actually thought he would so much different than his character. It's different, but not too far off for me.
You'd say that you death worshipping papist😂😂
He sounds like Richard Burton when he is in character.
@@lifer9883 God, that's exactly it! I hadn't been able to put my finger on it.
Cosmo Jarvis looks like his head is approaching an explosive pressure.
Great show.
LOOOL
😂😂😂😂
Leave him alone 😅😂😂😂
@@DeeDiamond2981 OPs comment made me laugh waaaaay too hard. It reads like it’s not meant to be a joke but more an astute observation 😭.
A sign of Hiroyuki's inquisitive mind, he immediately linked Cosmo being a musician with the ability to quickly learn a language.
Cosmo seems to be so down to earth and humble. Loved him as Anjin-Sama.
Hiroyuki Sanada was a action super star as well as Jackie Chan when I was a kid in Japan!
Yes, he basically is the Jackie Chan of Japan, but he hasn't got so much international recognition that he deserves.
He’s fantastic in everything I’ve seen him in
They were in Rush Hour 3 together.
Ninja in the Dragon's Den #Classic
@@kevinwong8693Let's hope he get more recognition for his work now. He play a lot of good characters.
The way Cosmo bows when Sanada Hiroyuki-san does melts my heart 🥹❤️.. Sanada-san, you are my hero
Hiroyuki is a fine actor. He seems to be very open and gentle. I expect he would be a pleasure to work along side.
Can't tell you how happy I am for Cosmo , been listening to him for years and years and he finally found his place . Buzzing for the lad 👏👏
I just been listening to his music and it's horrendous! He's definitely a better actor, he's taken this role and made it his own for sure...
@@fcukgogle9213I, and thousands of others, absolutely love his music and have been listening for over 10 years. Don’t be so quick to throw out absolutes like “his music IS [blank]”. Don’t forget art is very subjective. If you don’t like something, that’s absolutely fine, but don’t be so arrogant as to state your opinion as if it’s fact.
@@fcukgogle9213 your comment mstches your profile 😂
I couldn’t believe this was the same guy. He was screaming about something and Maxine popped into my head.
Literally one of my favourite musicians
So happy to see Cosmo doing something cool like this! EPIC!!!!!
Ikr. I'm proud of him. I've been a fan of him and his music since 2008
@@calzone3843Yeah, it’s kind of wild seeing him play a ‘dodgy’ priest in Sure As Hell Not Jesus to this.
A serious talent though and I guess we all knew back then that he was destined to be a star!
im a new fan. omg. we out hereeee. His career is just beginning tbh!
@abc92800 go research his music. Kid was ahead of his time, original and funny as hell. So damn creative. I've been a fan since the video for "She Doesn't Mind" came out. Such a talented dude, I'm just insanely happy for him, best role he's gotten so far since he took up acting!!!
@@thehourcal3670 def knee he'd go onto bigger things. That is a great video. All of his videos, really, are juat so damned creative and good. He is killing it in this role, just outstanding!!!!
I thought cosmo channelled some serious Tom Hardy with his voice and inflection - Think “I have a use for you” Taboo 😊
That’s exactly what I thought when I first heard him speak. Good inspiration to draw from
I thought the same!
An aTOMic COSMO HARDY JARVIS in an Ironman vs. Bane DC / Marvel crossover reboot, yo!!!
He seems to be basing his characters voice on Richard Burton.
I’m getting Russel Crowe!
Sanada-san is a legend
Loved the first three episodes I've seen so far of Shogun.
Both Hiroyuki and Cosmo together with the other cast are fantastic in their Shogun roles, and nice to see here how polite and humble they seem.
I like how they capture the quality of the book character of Blackthorne, a survivor who's essentially being buffeted around by the winds of a world he doesn't control, making desperate gamble after gamble to narrowly avoid death. Always finding ways to make himself useful enough to be kept alive. He's not like the cliched 'Tom Cruise in Last Samurai' thing where he winds up becoming the Best Samurai of All somehow, he's a guy who's been around the world and knows how to pick up languages quickly, and he really doesn't want to die.
once upon a time I was sent off to a country that I didn't know the language at all and know one knew mine. I found the scenes so accurate as to what its actually like when no one can speak each others language but they manage to communicate on some level anyway. especially the scenes with buntaro, yabushige and blackthorne.
It has been a while since I’ve been this hooked on a show. Something about it is so uniquely compelling. The action, the cultures, and the history.
They have done a great job honoring the book, which is very good. It helps to have great source material.
Best show since true detective season 1.
Instant classic.
Sanada-san really brought this production together. My child self had a hard time paying attention to the original series, but as an adult watching this version I find myself absorbed by every detail I see.
Just watched the first two episodes and I could not bring myself to blink during it. Insanely good television.
I hope Hiroyuki Sanada gets the opportunity to produce more and more, because what an amazing debut. I can't wait to see what else he brings us.
If this show isn't nominated for a slew of Emmys, I'll be very disappointed.
top notch casting for these two
Just finished it with my dad ‘hooked to it need to do a second series
Just watched the first episode. Loved every second!
In this day and age its rare to see a show exceed its original. Bravo!
Have to agree. Every episode is like a high dollar movie. Amazing show!
Both of these men were incredible in the show, I was especially impressed with Cosmo.
6 episodes in - MAGNIFICENT!!!
Watched the first two episodes yesterday, it's really good, it could become one of the best series of all time.
Shogun is Epic & Excellent! 👍
Cosmo Jarvis has my dream job. Performing in a show all about Japanese history and culture, surrounded by Japanese actors. Always been enamoured with historical Japan.
These gentleman really poured themselves into their roles with complete dedication and sincerity. We thank you and appreciate you for educating us, entertaining us and just making us fall in love with these characters. 🙏🏼🌹🌹
First show in a LOOOOOONG time i wanna binge all in one go. Its amazing!
Excellent interview, great questions
I am frequently impressed by this show. So many of the conversations continue to stay engaging. Honestly in a way that very little tv shows have been able to accomplish.
Some of the best TV ever produced.
I LOVE John Blackthorns voice in this.
Such a fan of Cosmo & his portrayal. Really hope to see him in more roles like this. Was perfectly cast. Incredibly talented & cerebral performer.
I am in love with this series! Such a talented cast and a beautifully crafted show.
Yep. It rocks. I'm a total fan!
Loved that Hiroyuki became an international actor. I love a lot of Japanese culture and this is the first of any media material that has me wanting to actually watch full movies in Japanese that isn't anime. Would love it if he and Keanu got to reunite and do something on Cyberpunk together. Can't get enough of him.
Hiroyuki really plays it so well. Always a fan of his.
I am so immersed on every episode of shogun, the level of detail and authenticity is fantastic
Great questions and excellent exchange. I particular liked the conversation about the falcons. Epic series. There is so much subtlety through the acting which is absolutely masterful and conveys so much about each character and scene. The response about reading faces from Cosmo was a great insight into his way of navigating scenes.
Sanada is the sole reason I got into Japanese history.
Never has anyone depicted it on screen as well as he does.
Also the depth of field and blur on this series makes every shot look amazing.
Almost like a painting.
Never seen anything like it.
Big fan of his. You should check out Toshiro Mifune.
The absolutely best series ever. I love Mr. Sanada in everything he is in,but Shogun is his best work ever. Thank you sir!!!!!!!
I barely finished the series and hell of a series hopefully we might be able to get a season 2
Super awesome class my dude! Actually broke a good sweat that one!
Absolutely amazing show! I love the choice of caracters and all the scenes look amazing aswell! Awesome job with the props and costumes. Best show of the year so far.
Love this show already! Its gonna win awards!
I like Cosmo's natural voice in his interviews, it seems like he tries to lower his voice too much in the show. He's a decent actor, reminds me a bit of Tom Hardy.
He modeled the voice a little after his father’s voice, I read.
This show is simply epic, loving every episode, in a period where I'm disliking everything that is coming out it's refreshing to see something so well made and so well crafted ❤
This show is such a gem. Every episode is fkin gold! Can't wait for ep 8
Loved the series , wish a second season would come.
A great series! One that you don't want to end.
Cosmo looks like the sort of person anyone could like.
Loved this series. Watched in the eighties and adore the new version. Cosmo's voice in this so reminds me of the late, Great, Richard Burton. Voice and manner. I predict this young actor will go far. Bless.
Sanada was my favorite character in 'The Last Samurai' well done again sir.
I love Hiroyuki's reasoning for authenticity. Too often do historical fiction shows *ahem Vikings* lack historical authenticity for one reason or another. Being a historical fiction story should be more reason to appear authentic to make the story believable
absolutely love this series
PROTECC SANADA AT ALL COST
I’m currently on season 1 ep 4 on Hulu, it’s better than I imagined. I just wish it wasn’t a miniseries. Would’ve been awesome for a season two
It’s so good so far
Being English and not speaking Japanese, it isn’t easy trying to eat my evening meal and read the subtitles at the same time but I’m really enjoying watching Shogun. Thank you guys. What about Clavell’s other books? When are they going to be dramatized?
Simonline🏴😀👍
I'm hooked!
phenomenal actors
The top of cosmos’s head was something I DID NOT expect
Incredible show
Epic series!
I will watch anything Hiroyuki Sanada is in! The man is an incredible actor. I don't think I've ever seen Jarvis Cosmo in anything prior to me watching the show, but even though I am only 4 episodes into it, I am already very impressed with his acting! Absolutely love his character!
The first person I thought of when I watched episode 1 was Will Adams, and often see his memorial in Gillingham, Kent.
I swear, if we get a second season of this and they can get Ken Watanabe in there they might make the greatest show ever.
Shame Toshiro Mifune (original Toranaga from the 1980 adaptation) is gone, too.
Oh, come on. Mifune would be 104 now. And we won't get a second season. That's a contained story.
@@_nopestr I wasn't entirely sure how far they were going to stretch out the story.
And, yeah, of course he would have been too old if he were still alive, but it still would have been cool to have him in some capacity. Even if it were just a cameo.
Shōgun is exceeding the hype for me. It's phenomenal.
Fantastic show
This show is one of the best things FX has made, truly breathtaking in every way, pls 2nd season
Its a masterpiece. Bravo
Epic, quality TV...great cast and acting!
Plus to Cosmo Jarvis and his music video, Love This.
Audio of Love This is still available, video lives on in my brain.
Sanada San's Shirt is a piece of art! WOW!
KUDOS, both gentlemen. What a woderful show. BEST show I've seen in years !
Blows away anything recently and certainly ranks up there with some of the best ever. Like any other art, it depends on the viewer . But its my top 10 in the last 50 years!
Please God make them renew for season 2
I think it’s limited series based on the novel. It a big book , so they may get a second season out of it.
Sadly no. Season will never happen as sanada already confirmed it that this will only be one season exclusive thing. One and done.
Absolutely loving these guys in the show. Really amazed by the physicality of Cosmo's performance, the kind of muttering, darting energy moving through his head and arms. Great stuff.
Man, I remember Hiroyuki from the original Ringu in 1999. Scared the hell out of me.
Really? Didn't know that. Will watch it.
They have done a great job honoring the book.
This show is amazing
Amazing show!!!
They are all good actors in the show. Very impressive. I especially loved Blackthorn’s authentic British English swearings and comical scenes.
this show is making me play sekiro all over again, it is that good!
If you havent played it yet, Ghost of Tsushima is an amazing game as well. I am sure if you play Sekiro casually, youve already done Ghotsu.
@@jag8519both are sooooo good
@@jag8519I’m so stoked. They finally announced a release date for the PC version of Ghosts of Tsushima. 😊
Shogun is absolutely f-ing phenomenal. Wonderful acting, great production, amazing camera work, amazing scenery/props/costume design. The entire time I'm watching the show I feel completely immersed and i feel like I'm there with them and we need to prevent the Portuguese expansion/take over as well as settle the succession/power struggle dispute at Osaka to save our clan and lord(metaphorically)
I FUCKING LOVE THIS SHOW!!!! Toranaga, Mariko, Yabushige, and Blackthorne are my favorites!!!!
Hiroyuki seems like such a nice guy
best show out there right now!
Masterpiece of a series
It was pure excellence. x
