FX and Hulu have officially announced plans for two additional seasons of the hit drama series Shogun. The network has partnered with the estate of author James Clavell to extend the show, with both seasons currently in development pending creative approval. A writers room is being assembled to explore a continuation of Shogun beyond Clavell's original novel.
The creative team behind Shogun, including co-creators, executive producers, and writers, as well as star and producer Hiroyuki Sanada, are all actively involved in the development of the new seasons. Shogun, which concluded its first season in late April, has become FX's most-watched show ever based on global hours streamed. The 10-episode first season is currently available for streaming on Hulu.
