Acclaimed director Hiro Murai is set to make his feature film debut with Bushido<\/i>, a samurai epic financed by A24. Known for his Emmy-nominated work on Atlanta, <\/i>for directing episodes on Station Eleven, Barry <\/i>and The Bear; <\/i>as well as the groundbreaking music video This Is America<\/i>, Murai has garnered a reputation as a visionary in television and music videos.

Details of Bushido<\/i>\u2018s plot remain under wraps, but the film looks to deliver an exploration of samurai culture in a tumultuous era. The screenplay is penned by Henry Dunham (The Standoff at Sparrow Creek<\/i>), with production backing from Square Peg, helmed by Hereditary<\/i>\u2019s Ari Aster and Lars Knudsen, and 2AM, known for collaborations with A24.<\/p>\n

The timing of Bushido<\/i> aligns with a renewed global interest in samurai narratives, spurred by FX\u2019s Sh\u014dgun<\/i>, the Emmy-winning drama that delves deeply into 17th-century Japanese politics and culture.<\/p>\n
