Is Shōgun season 2 releasing in May 2025? Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on May 10, 2025, 17:35 IST Last updated May 10, 2025, 15:09 IST The critically acclaimed historical drama Shōgun took the world by storm in 2024, earning 18 Emmy Awards and becoming FX's most-watched series ever. Fans are eagerly awaiting news about Shōgun Season 2, with many wondering if a May 2025 release is on the horizon. In this article, we'll dive into everything we know so far about Shōgun Season 2. Is Shōgun Season 2 Releasing in May 2025? Unfortunately, Shōgun Season 2 will not be releasing in May 2025. According to recent updates, production is set to begin in January 2026 in Vancouver, British Columbia, and Japan. Given the extensive filming and post-production process for Season 1, which took approximately 180–200 days of shooting plus additional time for visual effects and sound design, a 2025 release is highly unlikely. The earliest projected release for Shōgun Season 2 is summer 2026, with some sources speculating a fall 2026 or even early 2027 premiere, depending on the complexity of post-production. Shōgun Season 2: Production Updates The writers' room for Shōgun Season 2 wrapped in February 2025, completing scripts for a 10-episode season. Co-creators Justin Marks and Rachel Kondo, along with executive producers Michaela Clavell (James Clavell's daughter) and Hiroyuki Sanada, are deeply involved in crafting the next chapter. Pre-production is underway, with filming locations confirmed in Vancouver and Japan to maintain the show's authentic depiction of feudal Japan. Unlike Season 1, which adapted James Clavell's 1975 novel Shōgun , Season 2 will venture into original storytelling, as the book's events concluded in the first season. However, the series will draw inspiration from historical events of the early Edo period, particularly the reign of Tokugawa Ieyasu, the real-life figure who inspired Lord Yoshii Toranaga.
