‘Shōgun’ Season 2: Cosmo Jarvis Rejoins Hiroyuki Sanada, Time Jump & More Details Revealed, Production Start Set
Season 2 of FX's Shōgun will begin filming in January with a 10-year time jump. Cosmo Jarvis will reprise his role as English pilot John Blackthorne.
Cosmo Jarvis has closed a deal to reprise his role as English pilot John Blackthorne, joining Hiroyuki Sanada, whose pact last May to return as Lord Yoshii Toranaga paved the way to Shogun ‘s renewal after being originally conceived as a limited series. When a mysterious European ship was found marooned in a nearby village, its pilot John Blackthorne (Jarvis) shared vital strategic secrets with Toranaga that tipped the scales of power in his favor to win a century-defining civil war. The limited series was originally intended to film in Japan, and Sanada in September hinted of a potential Season 2 relocation to the Asian country.
