After ‘Warrior’ became a breakout hit for HBO Max, the streaming service has renewed the martial arts crime drama for a third season.
When Warrior wrapped up its second season back in October 2020, fans of the gritty, action-packed crime drama based on the writings of Bruce Lee were feeling pretty certain that the Cinemax series had come to an end. Even executive producers Justin Lin ( F9) and Shannon Lee felt that was the end of the road. But then something interesting happened. After HBO Max (whose parent company WarnerMedia also owns Cinemax) initially decided that Warrior “didn’t fit the brand” for the new streaming service, an executive change-up led to the show’s first two seasons hitting the platform in January 2021 where it quickly found an audience.
