Max cancels ‘Warrior’ after three seasons, Netflix acquires rights for re-runs

Max has canceled “Warrior” after three seasons. According to Deadline, Netflix has acquired co-exclusive to those three seasons, which will still be available for streaming on Max.

“Warrior” is a martial arts crime drama set in 19th-century San Francisco. The series is based on the writings of Bruce Lee, whose daughter Sharon helped produce the show.

According to Variety, “Warrior” follows Chinese immigrant and martial arts prodigy Ah Sahm (Andrew Koji) whose loyalties are split between his sister Mai Ling and his tong.

The cancelation comes after the show returned from a two-year hiatus. But there is still some hope for a fourth season. According to Deadline, if the three seasons do well on Netflix the streaming platform could order a fourth season.

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,” series creator Jonathan Tropper said in an exclusive statement to Deadline.
