FX Will Submit ‘Shōgun’ In Drama Category For Emmys


Now that FX has decided to make more episodes of its breakout hit Shōgun, it is changing its Emmy strategy for the James Clavell adaptation.

The show’s key creative partners — co-creators, executive producers and writers Justin Marks and Rachel Kondo, EP Michaela Clavell, as well as star/producer Hiroyuki Sanada — are on board for the development. Toranaga’s and Blackthorne’s fates become inextricably tied to their translator, Toda Mariko (Anna Sawai), a mysterious Christian noblewoman and the last of a disgraced line. While serving her lord amidst this fraught political landscape, Mariko must reconcile her newfound companionship with Blackthorne, her commitment to the faith that saved her and her duty to her late father.
