Given it's been three years since I last reported on this I think you'll excuse me for forgetting it was a thing, but the adaptation of Shōgun starring Lady Macbeth hunk Cosmo Jarvis here that I told you about way back in spring of 2021 is apparently out now? It's an FX slash Hulu thing. Upu can watch the trailer at this link. It looks like first four episodes are out now. It also stars the legend Hiroyuki Sanada and the eyelash-legend Néstor Carbonell. Oh and Takehiro Hira from Takashi Miike's killer American Psycho riff Lesson of the Evil! Love that movie. Anyway I have not watched any of the show yet myself (if you have let me know how it is) but when I learned that my beloved Cosmo got good and naked in the first episode I obviously had to watch that much (as in "just that scene") and now I have gifs for you. Hit the jump...

So fucking good and only two episodes in. It's vastly superior to the 1980 version which was great at the time but this is a gorgeous and well-deserved update. Jarvis is far more believable as Blackthorne than Chamberlain was; his thuggish channeling of Brando and Tom Hardy along with that Richard Burton voice... oh my!
