The Ghost of Tsushima movie could welcome a famous actor seen in Shogun
The Ghost of Tsushima film has not yet announced the cast, but it seems that there is also a famous actor seen in Shogun, the TV series set in Japan, in the running. That’s who we’re talking about.
PlayStation is working on many extra-gaming products and one of these is the Ghost of Tsushima film . After the success of the video game, it’s time to bring these results to the big screen too. There’s still a long way to go until it arrives, given that the cast hasn’t been chosen for the moment, but little by little new things are on the way.
For example, according to a rumor from DanielRPK – a well-known film leaker – the actor Hiroyuki Sanada who we recently saw in Shogun is in discussion for a role in the Sony feature film.
Who is Hiroyuki Sanada and what role could he get in Ghost of Tsushima
Hiroyuki Sanada played Toranaga-sama in Shogun, but is also known for his roles in The Last Samurai, Sunshine and Lost. Furthermore, always talking about film adaptations of video games, he will be present in the upcoming film Mortal Kombat 2.

As for the potential role in the Ghost of Tsushima film, we have no confirmation at the moment, not even from rumors. If we were to speculate, however, we would dare to say that Sanada would be perfect for the role of Lord Shimura , the uncle and protector of the video game’s protagonist, Jin Sakai.
Shimura is an experienced old samurai with rigid values, central to the plot and the growth of the protagonist. Giving such an important role to Sanada would make perfect sense. We also remember that the man is present in John Wick Chapter 4, directed by Chad Stahelski who will be behind the camera of Ghost of Tsushima.
