Final thoughts and excitement for Season 2

  • Shogun is officially getting a second season with filming set for January 2026 in Vancouver.

  • The story jumps ten years ahead, placing us deeper into the Edo era with Toranaga in power but on unstable ground.

  • Expect fewer large scale battles and more political maneuvering as Toranaga manages a fragile new alliance.

  • Both Toranaga and Blackthorne return, played again by Hiroyuki Sanada and Cosmo Jarvis, alongside the original supporting cast and many new characters.

  • The creative team, including key writers and directors from Season 1, is back, even though the show is now telling an original story beyond the book.

  • The scale and cost of production suggest a long post production window, making a likely release sometime in 2027.

  • “It kind of gives us an era when Toranaga is in power, but it is fragile.”

  • “It will probably be less battles and more juggling this fragile new alliance that he is building.”

  • “They are no longer pulling from the book, they are beyond that at this point.”

  • “With the very expensive and long shoot, it is probably not going to release till 2027, but cameras are rolling.”

  • “We have something happening that is incredible. I cannot wait for another season of Shogun.”

Mortal Kombat 1 to Feature Classic Characters and Exciting Guest Fighters

Mortal Kombat 1 is set to make a splash with its impressive roster, offering a blend of beloved classic characters and exciting guest fighters. Developed by NetherRealm Studios, the game aims to provide a fresh and reimagined experience for fans of the long-running franchise. The roster of Mortal Kombat 1 will feature iconic characters like Liu Kang, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Raiden, Kung Lao, Kitana, Mileena, and Johnny Cage. According to NetherRealm Studios, these characters will receive a “reimagined” treatment, promising new twists and updates to their well-known personas. However, the excitement doesn’t end there. The game will also introduce a separate group of combatants known as Kameo Fighters. These unique characters will assist players during matches, adding an additional layer of strategy and excitement to the gameplay. In an intriguing development, a retail listing from Amazon Italy has revealed that Mortal Kombat 1 will include guest characters from popular franchises. Homelander from The Boys, Peacemaker from the DC Universe, and Omni-Man from Invincible will join the roster, adding a thrilling crossover element to the game. These characters will be included as part of MK1’s Kombat Pack, available with the premium and collector’s edition versions of the game. Additionally, the retail listing mentions a few other surprises. Mortal Kombat veterans Quan Chi, Ermac, and Takeda are set to make their return, while five currently unannounced Kameo Fighters—Tremor, Khameleon, Mavado, Ferra, and Johnny Cage—will bring further excitement to the game. It’s worth noting that while Johnny Cage is listed as part of the Kameo Fighter roster, it remains unclear if this specifically refers to the Jean-Claude Van Damme skin for the character. Confirmation from Warner Bros. regarding the accuracy of the retail listing is still pending. Mortal Kombat has a rich history of including guest characters from various media, and Mortal Kombat 1 is no exception. Previous games in the franchise have featured an array of notable figures, including Kratos from God of War, the Xenomorph from Alien, and Jason Voorhees from Friday the 13th.

The CW Is Shifting Away From Superhero Shows

The CW Is Shifting Away From Superhero Shows

The CW network is undergoing a significant transformation in its programming lineup, with a notable rollback of its superhero shows that have been a staple for over a decade. During the network’s Upfront presentation, Brad Schwartz, The CW’s entertainment president, outlined the vision for the future of programming, highlighting a shift away from the superhero genre that helped build the Arrowverse and other series like “Riverdale” and the Nancy Drew reboot. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Schwartz acknowledged that while these shows had been the hallmarks of The CW for a long time, they are no longer resonating with the network’s linear viewership. He attributed this change to the fact that the young adult audience no longer makes appointments to watch broadcast television. In an effort to attract a broader audience and increase profitability, The CW aims to go bigger and appeal to older viewers. The move is part of a broader strategy to meet the profit goal set by The CW’s new owner, Nexstar Media Group. Nexstar primarily owns local TV stations across the country. Interestingly, Tom Carter, Nexstar’s president and chief operating officer, shared in a conference call last August that the average age of the CW broadcast viewer is 58 years, as reported by TV Line. This revelation came just before the network’s acquisition by Warner Bros. Discovery and Paramount Global, both of which retain minority stakes in The CW. In the first half of 2022, several shows met an abrupt end, including “Legacies,” “Legends of Tomorrow,” “Batwoman,” the Charmed reboot, and “Dynasty.” Additionally, “Kung Fu,” the Supernatural prequel “The Winchesters,” and “Walker Independence” were also canceled ahead of the May 18 announcement. Last year, it was announced that both “The Flash” and “Riverdale” would conclude with their upcoming final seasons. The fates of “Gotham Knights,” “Superman & Lois,” and “All American: Homecoming” are still uncertain. Schwartz indicated that decisions regarding these shows would come “soon” as the respective companies analyze the costs of producing these “expensive” programs. “We have to be entrepreneurial in the way we look at content,” stated Schwartz. “We can’t write a per-episode $10 million check for a show with dragons.” Looking ahead to the 2024 season, Schwartz unveiled upcoming co-productions, including “Joan,” a series starring Sophie Turner as an infamous jewel thief. He also mentioned “The Librarians: The Next Chapter,” a spinoff of the TNT drama, as well as the acquisition of “The Swarm,” a German eco-sci-fi series, and “Sullivan’s Crossing,” a Canadian medical drama based on books written by Robyn Carr and starring Chad Michael Murray. Schwartz also expressed excitement about unscripted acquisitions, such as the Max castoff “FBoy Island.” He believes that a bold and impactful unscripted show like “FBoy Island” has the potential to break through and captivate audiences.
