Will there be a 'Shōgun' season 2? Creators weigh in on miniseries' future as fans react
The FX series "Shōgun" ended its 10-episode run with its finale on April 23, and it has fans clamoring for more.
So, will there be a season 2? Here's what the series creators have to say.
'Shōgun' creators Rachel Kondo, Justin Marks discuss the series future and possible Season 2
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter published April 24, "Shōgun" creators Justin Marks and Rachel Kondo discuss the series and the possibility of a second season. FX hasn't renewed it, according to Forbes.
Marks told The Hollywood Reporter he doesn't know if the series will continue.
"I think if we had a story, if we could find a story, we would be open to it," he said.
The miniseries covers the entirety of the 1975 James Cavell novel on which it's based, according to Time. While there are five more novels in Cavell's "The Asian Saga," they are set in different time periods with different characters.
Where is 'Shōgun' streaming?
All episodes of "Shōgun" are currently on Hulu and Disney+.
The FXNow website also has episodes, as do various streaming services, such as YouTube TV, Sling TV and fubo.

Shōgun not only became one of the greatest shows i’ve ever watched but the finale was emotionally satisfying while also leaving me incredibly sad we most likely will never see more pic.twitter.com/ihrgHJJE0U

This is how you make a finale. No-frills. No epic battles. Just poetic, poignant, and powerful moments between characters that bring closure to the whole story. Hands down the best show of 2024! #Shogun#ShogunFXpic.twitter.com/yVF4nESB7J
