Tadanobu Asano on Shogun’s Success, Yabushige’s Final Scene & New Ska/Punk

Tadanobu Asano joins Kyle Meredith to talk about the massive success of the FX/Hulu series Shogun. Listen now.

The Japanese actor, who portrays Kashigi Yabushige, dives into the complexities of embodying a character from the 1600s, his attraction to unlikable characters, and the blurred lines between good and bad within the world of Shogun. He then discusses the many practical difficulties the production faced, as well as the importance of having a mostly Asian crew.

Also a punk rock musician, Asano then talks about his next musical project, which is shaping up to be influenced by ska (perhaps an appearance on In Defense of Ska is in order).

Listen to Tadanobu Asano chat about all this and more in the new episode or watch it on YouTube. Please take the time to like, review, and subscribe to KMW wherever you get your podcasts, and keep up to date with all our series by following the Consequence Podcast Network.
