Cosmo Jarvis Returns for Shogun Season 2, Set a Decade Later

May 15,25(1 months ago)

The critically acclaimed series *Shōgun*, which swept 18 Emmy Awards and 4 Golden Globes, is set to return for a highly anticipated second season. According to an official press release from FX, Cosmo Jarvis, who portrays the pilot John Blackthorn, will reprise his role and also step into the position of co-executive producer for Season 2.

Hiroyuki Sanada, who plays the lead role of Lord Yoshii Toranaga, signed on for the new season last May following the show's renewal. Originally conceived as a limited series, *Shōgun* has now elevated Sanada to the role of executive producer after his contributions to the first season. Production for Season 2 is scheduled to commence in January 2026 in Vancouver, the same location where the original series was filmed.

FX has described the upcoming season as "a wholly original new chapter to the first season," which was an adaptation of James Clavell’s novel. The network provided insight into the narrative connection between the two seasons:

"In the first season, Lord Yoshii Toranaga (Sanada) fought for his survival as his enemies in the Council of Regents united against him. When a mysterious European ship was found marooned in a nearby village, its English 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.

"Part two of *Shōgun* is set 10 years after the events of the first season and continues the historically-inspired saga of these two men from different worlds whose fates are inextricably entwined."

Fans of the series can look forward to new episodes potentially by the end of 2026, though for now, all we can do is wait and hope for the best.
