Check out the first trailer for Warrior season 3, the best action-packed series you’re not watching on Max.
Max has released the first trailer for Warrior season 3, the action-packed drama series based on the writings of Bruce Lee.
I can’t say I know many people who watched Warrior, but you are missing one of the best action series out there. Despite my love of the series, I’ll admit to forgetting that Warrior was even returning for another season. Part of that might have to do with how long it’s been since the last season of the series. The second season of Warrior wrapped up in late 2020, which places nearly three years between seasons.
The series stars Andrew Koji as Ah Sahm, a martial arts prodigy who emigrates from China to San Francisco under mysterious circumstances and becomes a hatchet man for one of Chinatown’s most powerful crime families. Per the official Warrior season 3 logline: “In the wake of the race riots that upended Chinatown in season two, Mai Ling uses her government connections to consolidate power, while Ah Sahm and the Hop Wei must find new ways to survive.“
The first two seasons of Warrior aired on Cinemax, but when the series was renewed for a third season, it was announced that it would move to HBO Max. “Warrior introduced viewers to a distinct world from the past, executed with dynamic action and relevant storytelling, with a brilliant cast led by Andrew Koji,” said Casey Bloys, Chief Content Officer at HBO and HBO Max. “We can’t wait to see what Jonathan, Justin and Shannon will bring to the next chapter of this series on HBO Max.” Executive producer Shannon Lee added, “Justin, Jonathan, and I were thrilled when Warrior was put on HBO platforms to be discovered by a whole new legion of fans. Now we are excited and grateful for the opportunity to do another season, and we applaud HBO Max for understanding the importance of telling this story and for continuing to support this level of representation in our industry. I just know that my father is grinning right now to see this show he dreamed of so long ago continuing to beat the odds. We have every intention of delivering the same high level of meaningful storytelling and Gung Fu action in Season 3.” Of course, HBO Max is now simply… Max.
The first three episodes of Warrior season 3 will debut on Max on June 29th. Will you be watching? What did you think of the Warrior season 3 trailer?
