Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Shōgun showrunner Justin Marks has opened up about the possibility of adapting another novel from author James Clavell's Asian Saga into another miniseries in the future. The recent historical miniseries is based on Clavell's novel of the same name, using his story as the basis for the tale told onscreen.
I gotta say, apropos of nothing, we are really digging Tai-Pan. It's a great book. I picked it up to just see, “Can he strike lightning twice?” And it's like, “Oh my god, he's such a great writer that even this is great for entirely different reasons.” So, sure, maybe we'll do Tai-Pan someday. It's only a half-joke at this point, but who knows? I haven't gotten to the end.
Given the praise for Shōgun as a miniseries, it would be unsurprising if its success led to other novels written by Clavell to get a similar treatment onscreen. While the other novels in the series don't directly connect to one another's stories, they do showcase real-life periods in Asian history through the lens of historical fiction. These make the tales therein historically relevant, with possible TV adaptations giving these parts of history a wider scope for a worldwide audience.
