Warrior Nun to return in new movie trilogy following Netflix axe
Netflix's axed Warrior Nun is officially continuing as a trilogy of movies.
Last streaming in 2022 with its second season, this fantastical graphic novel adaptation's executive producer Dean English announced the news via the 'Warrior Nun Saved' YouTube channel yesterday (August 15).
"First of all, I need to start by thanking all of you loyal fans. It's because of you and your incredible energy that we keep pushing forward to make these stories. You guys really make it all worthwhile. So thank you so much for your continued support," he said in the video.

"I am very happy to announce that Warrior Nun is coming back as a trilogy of motion pictures. Once again, a trilogy of feature films. Three."
Further along, English mentioned the ongoing WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes throughout Hollywood, which render him unable to share any deeper details on Warrior Nun's expansion at the moment.
He did, however, go on to tease a universe of spin-offs may be on the horizon: "Some may ask: 'Does this perhaps infer that there's gonna be a universe being launched of Warrior Nun, which could expand into films and TV series following characters that we already know?' The answer to that question is yes."

This comes almost two months since show creator Simon Barry's confirmation that the Order of the Cruciform Sword would be back on our screens despite the streaming cancellation.
Barry tweeted to the many fans out there: "Today I'm happy to officially report that because of your combined voices, passion and amazing efforts – #WarriorNun will return and is going to be more EPIC than you could imagine."
Warrior Nun seasons 1 and 2 are available on Netflix.
