Season 2 will be about his journey to become a leader and his fight to protect the people he has come to love."

    What Are the Historical Roots of 'Shōgun'?

    'Shōgun' is based on the novel of the same name by James Clavell. The novel was published in 1975 and became a bestseller. It tells the story of an English navigator who is shipwrecked in Japan in the 1600s and becomes embroiled in the political and social turmoil of the time.

    The novel was adapted into a television miniseries in 1980, which was a critical and commercial success. The series starred Richard Chamberlain as John Blackthorne and Toshiro Mifune as Toranaga.
