The chemistry between Anna Sawai and Cosmo Jarvis is palpable in FX’s Shogun.
And Mariko, I think she’s not waiting for anyone to save her.
You know, she has her own destiny in her hands.
I thought that was good.
In the series, both Sawai and Jarviss characters spend a lot of time with each other.
He’s just the character.
So the way I viewed you, I feel, was very much how Mariko viewed Blackthorne…
I think for me, it was like because we were shooting this chronologically.
I got to get to know you.
The same way Mariko was starting to understand Blackthorne.
So it just felt very organic.
But I think mostly it was just onset.
The topic then shifted to their most unique experiences on set.
From day to day, every day was very different.
And no two days were the same.
Nothing particularly stands out.
But that’s just because I have a terrible memory.
And it was something to remember.
Because we were wearing different kimonos, we were learning how to walk, how to speak.
Like, you know, people in 1600, Japan, and so everything was unique.
I can’t really choose one.
And so it was a welcome at exercise to be able to have worked on it.
The first two episodes ofShogunare now streaming onHuluandDisney+, with new installments debuting weekly.
