Cinemax Renews The Bruce Lee-Inspired Series WARRIOR For Season 2
The first season of the Bruce Lee-inspired martial arts series Warrior is only three episodes in, but Cinemax has officially renewed it for a second season, which I couldn’t be more happy and excited about!
The series was created by Banshee co-creator Jonathan Tropper and produced by Justin Lin. The show is based on the concepts and writings of the legendary Bruce Lee.
Warrior is a gritty, action-packed crime drama set during the brutal Tong Wars of San Francisco’s Chinatown in the second half of the 19th century. The series follows Ah Sahm, a martial arts prodigy who immigrates from China to San Francisco under mysterious circumstances, and becomes a hatchet man for one of Chinatown’s most powerful tongs (Chinese organized crime family).
If you haven’t started watching this series yet, it’s definitely a must and worth your time. Len Amato, president, HBO Films, Miniseries and Cinemax Programming had this to say in a statement:
“Bruce Lee’s vision is alive and well. Warrior combines high-energy martial arts with wit and brains. We’re thrilled to renew such a great show for a second season on Cinemax.”
It’s great to know that we are going to get at least one more season after this first one comes to an end. This is the kind of show that I hope at least gets four or five seasons.
Have you been watching Warrior? Are you excited to hear that it’s getting a Season 2?
