When Netflix canceled Warrior Nun last December, there was massive fan outcry. The fans fought back: they generated a viral campaign on Twitter and rented a billboard in front of Netflix's offices asking the streamer to walk back its decision.
Warrior Nun's fans' effort eventually paid off with Simon Barry, the showrunner, announcing that the show will live on as a trilogy. Unfortunately, he won't be involved in the new iteration to the disappointment of many fans.
Barry dropped the bombshell on his X. In a candid post, he said, "Hey #WarriorNun family, thanks for all your comments/messages/questions etc. FYI – I have no idea what's being announced tomorrow. I am not a part of the team producing the movies, and have no deal in place for any writing or directing services."
There is more, though. Amy Berg, the consulting producer and a key writer for the series, quoted Barry's post, declaring, "I'm also not involved. #WarriorNun."
Adding to the shockwave, writer-producer David Hayter chimed in, confirming his non-participation with a succinct tweet that mirrored Barry's: "Same here, for the Nunly record."
