magine a show that takes place in Europe where the main actor demands European authenticity and only white actors. I'm not saying he's wrong because I agree with him, but the opposite never applies. Hollywood hypocrisy at it's best.
❤❤❤ amazing show 🎉🎉🎉
My favourite actor! I liked him since The Ring movie. ❤
Thank you Mr Sanada to make it happen on this kind of film !!
Also lovely to hear the actress’s speech too, we Japanese women appreciated what she said, thank you!! From 🇯🇵
I appreciate that Japanese actors were cast. I don’t love it when Asian actors from all different countries are used interchangeably.
Sanada is my favorite Japanese actor
Why do I feel like I've eaten street vendor food in a futuristic Cyberpunk type city with this guy before. Such a weird feeling of Deja vu… Ghost Keanu in my head, what do you think? Doesn't this guy look familiar? Have we met him somewhere before?
Why is it that many Asian movies and shows in America always involve White people. Even movies such as The Last Samurai and The Great Wall involve White guys who save the day for these "foreign" countries instead of people from those countries — will this be similar?
He's one of my favorite actors of all time! A legend!
真田さんがスタントマンでドラマに出ていたのは遠い昔、、、出世されましたね！
Can you please stop pronouncing Shōgun like it's an English word?
The only american thing about this show is the fact that it airs on FX.
Quelle classe…
一年後でも良いから、地上波で放映してくれませんか？❤出来ればネットの閉じた空間じゃなくて､オープンな上映､放送にしてほしい。もったいない。
Amazing! I look forward watching this I love Japanese culture
Hiroyuki Sanada is my hero from my local area in Tokyo, Japan 😊
真田広之さん、こんなに英語を勉強されていたんですね。俳優としても素晴らしい方だと思います。
キャスターの方、ショウガンじゃなくてショウグンです😅
Great series. I didn't watch the 80's version but this new version is awesome.
Dutch history, real story.
Scorpion and his pull at work!
I watched 2 episodes and it was amazing
Shogun is not pronounced Show-Gun 😮💨
It's an authentic Japanese Jidai Geki even from Japanese perspective. Well done Sanada San!!
5:25 しょうがん? Not syogan.
I have been a big fan of Hiroyuki Sanada since I was a kid. It's so nice to see him in different international films.
When is this showing
Where can I see this??
zero authenticity, period.
So glad he finally got a lead role.
Interviewer is an idiot lol
Anna Sarai is so beautiful 😍
Very beautiful culture
Hiroyuki San doesn't seem to age. Love his films
The word "Shogun" sounded quite different from how we pronounce it in Japan. Is it a known word in the US?
Well said. I hope this gets shown in Netflix as well for a much wider audience.👏
