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.”

Reddit Blackout

Reddit Blackout

On June 12, 2023, thousands of subreddits went dark in protest of Reddit's decision to start charging third-party developers for access to its data starting in July. The blackout, which was organized by the r/RedditAlliance subreddit, affected some of the site's largest communities, including r/funny, r/gaming, and r/aww. Reddit CEO Steve Huffman has defended the decision to charge for API access, saying that it is necessary to help the company pay for its infrastructure and development costs. However, many Redditors are concerned that the new pricing will make it difficult or impossible for third-party developers to continue creating tools and apps that make Reddit a more enjoyable and useful platform.
