Warrior has been cancelled and is coming to a third outlet. The first two seasons of the martial arts drama aired on Cinemax before moving to HBO Max for its third season. The show has now been cancelled and Netflix has picked up non-exclusive rights to air all three seasons.
Starring Andrew Koji, Kieran Bew, Celine Buckens, Olivia Cheng, Dianne Doan, Dean Jagger, Langley Kirkwood, Hoon Lee, Christian McKay, Dustin Nguyen, Joe Taslim, Chen Tang, Jason Tobin, Miranda Raison, Joanna Vanderham, Tom Weston-Jones, and Perry Yung, the series follows a Chinese immigrant who moves to San Francisco during the 1870s. It is based on an original story created by Bruce Lee.
Episodes will arrive on Netflix in February. If the series does well, the streaming service is reportedly open to a fourth season. Reassembling the cast could be challenging however as they’ve been released from their contracts.
Creator Jonathan Tropper said the following about the series, per Deadline:
“Warrior is a show that simply refuses to die. Through platform and regime changes, the writers, producers, cast, crew, and our stunt team continued to make something powerful, relevant, and wildly unique. And now, thanks to Netflix, we’ve been given yet another lease on life, and I’m thrilled for everyone involved that millions more viewers around the world will discover it.”
Shannon Lee, executive producer and daughter of Bruce Lee, also spoke about the series:
“If anything can be said about Warrior, with Bruce Lee in our corner, our indomitable spirit is REAL! And so, my wish is that the huge global Netflix audience LOVES Warrior and from that Love more goodness flows – in the form of greater recognition for our talented cast and crew who deserve all the things, in the form of passionate fandom for this relevant kick ass show and, if I dare to dream, in the form of an opportunity to continue our story for our amazing fans who, thanks to Netflix, will have grown in number and enthusiasm!”
