Awards darling Shogun Season 2 will be back filming in British Columbia next year.

Hiroyuki Sanada and Cosmo Jarvis star in the FX drama and will be back for production with the rest of the cast from late January 2026 to early September 2026.

Justin Marks one of the creators of the show spoke with Deadline earlier this year.

We’re coming out of the writers room now. We’re also done with the 10 episodes, and we have our finale now. That’s allowing us to start figuring out how we’re going to shoot this. But we’re very excited about the plan.

Marks and fellow creator Rachel Kondo announced that their writers room has completed scripts for all ten episodes. That was back in February and they have since been planning out the production. This makes sense when we look at the scope of season one and its numerous locales.

Season 2

Season 2 of Shogun continues the historically-inspired saga of two men from different worlds whose fates are entwined, jumping ahead 10 years as Lord Toranaga strives to become Shōgun, the leader of Japan’s warrior class.

Shogun is an adaptation of the James Cavell novel of the same name. It is not the first time adaptation. There was a miniseries that came out in 1980. That version starred Richard Chamberlain and Toshirô Mifune.

We do not yet have a premiere date for Shogun Season 2.
