Dec 18, 2023 8:41 PM

The TV crime drama Warrior, based on a concept by Bruce Lee and starring Andrew Koji and Olivia Cheng, has been cancelled after its third season on Max, also indicating the end of its tenure on HBO's streaming platform. The show, which started on Cinemax and later moved to Max, could find new life on Netflix as the streaming service is considering picking it up. While Netflix will add Warrior to its roster in February 2024, there's potential hope for the continuation of the show if it garners enough popularity among its audience. Though the show's actors, such as Koji, have been released from their contracts, there’s a collective sense of optimism about the show's future, emphasized by the series creator Jonathan Tropper and executive producer Shannon Lee. Warrior, praised for its unique perspective on the Chinese immigrants in the American West, awaits a decision for a possible fourth season, with fans and creators alike holding on to hope.

What options are there for Warrior after its cancellation on Max?

After the cancellation of Warrior on Max, the main option for the continuation of the series lies with Netflix, which is considering producing additional seasons if the show performs well with their subscribers.

Bummer to hear about Warrior getting the axe at Max, but it's cool that Netflix is stepping into the dojo—fingers crossed the fanbase comes out swinging and scores that Season 4. It just goes to show, in the streaming world, it ain't over 'til it's over, and with Netflix's track record, this could be a killer comeback story. 🥊📺

Ah, the classic save by Netflix maneuver — always a glimmer of hope for shows on the brink. If fans rally behind Warrior the way they've championed past cult favorites, we might just see those characters kicking butt in a fourth season.

Bummer about Warrior getting the axe from Max, but you gotta love the resilience of good shows in the streaming era. If it manages to kick up enough dust and impress the Netflix crowd, we might just see it bounce back harder than a Bruce Lee one-inch punch. 🥋📺 #HopeForWarrior #NetflixRescue
