This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available. Summary Shōgun is known for its harrowing ending, but Screen Rant's interview at San Diego Comic-Con revealed that the show might have had a very different ending. Inspired by James Clavell's 1975 book, the show is set in historical Japan, as an entire political structure faces upheaval at the introduction of a pirate.

In an interview with Screen Rant, editors Maria Gonzales and Aika Miyake, who have been given a shared Emmy Award for their skilled work with the show, revealed that there was originally a different ending. Gonzales explained that the show would have revealed Toranaga's future, as he discussed the upcoming political developments in Japan. Director Frederick E.O. Toye cut the scene and refused to offer further elaboration.

I think there was a version of the script, there was going to be sort of a flash-forward to the future of Japan . Because the real-life character of Toranaga, Tokugawa Ieyasu, he's the architect of modern-day Japan. So, there was a little bit of a snippet of that in that scene where Toranaga talks about the future of Japan, but that was quickly eliminated . I don't think that even survived, barely survived the editors cut.
