The actor behind John Blackthorne examines the Shōgun finale’s rich ambiguities, his final moments onscreen, and just how close he felt to the character through to the end.

This article contains spoilers about the finale of Shōgun. Adapted from the 1975 James Clavell novel, Shōgun delivered an immersive, deeply moving saga for viewers too. The show begins with Jarvis’s Blackthorne, a headstrong English sailor traveling to Japan circa 1600, left shipwrecked and fighting for survival.

One part of your performance that I really admired was this intricate tracing of Blackthorne getting accustomed to this culture, just in the way that you sit or the way you speak the language, and through to the respect he shows Mariko and Toranaga in the last few episodes. Can you talk a little bit about playing that? It ends up that he has a kind of serenity about him that he doesn't have when he first arrives.
