The anticipated series premiered with two episodes, but when can we expect more?
The latest major series to land on Disney Plus is Shōgun, a much-anticipated adaptation of the James Clavell novel of the same name and part of his time-spanning Asian Saga series.
Fans have patiently been waiting for the new show to land – and at long last, the first two episodes are available to watch, with further episodes being released weekly.
The series stars Hiroyuki Sanada (John Wick: Chapter 4) as the fearless Lord Yoshii Toranaga, who is left fighting for his life after his enemies on the Council of Regents unite against him.
As well as having an epic battle on his hands, he’s confronted by a mysterious European ship that has washed up on shore, with its English pilot John Blackthorne (Cosmo Jarvis) claiming to have secrets that could help Toranaga.
We’ve got plenty of drama, scandal and deception to look forward to in the episodes to come, as well as some epic fight sequences.
But when can we expect more episodes of Shōgun to land on Disney Plus? Read on to find out more about the release schedule for the new series.
