Hulu isn’t always the first streaming service people think of for high-quality original shows, but it’s been steadily gaining recognition. Several of its series have become critically acclaimed and won major awards – one even set a record by winning 18 Primetime Emmys in a single year. Now, thanks to a smart decision by FX and Hulu, that award-winning show is back in production for another season.
Season 2 of Shōgun is officially being made, and the network just released a new video offering a first glimpse! You can watch it below.

A brief teaser video reveals that Season 2 of Shōgun is officially in production. The video features Hiroyuki Sanda, both as himself – a producer and Emmy-winning actor preparing on set – and as his character, Lord Yoshi Toranaga, the new Shōgun of Japan. We see him in full costume after a symbolic chess match, hinting at the political battles to come. In between these two glimpses of Sanada, the teaser includes exciting behind-the-scenes footage, promising another visually stunning and detailed recreation of feudal Japan.
The new season of Shōgun certainly looks beautiful and impressive. But beyond its stunning visuals, the real challenge will be crafting a story that’s just as captivating, well-developed, and tightly-woven as the first season.
