The new teaser trailer features a recap of season 1 and some new clips from the forthcoming second season, with the new villain of the new season being Adriel.


When was Warrior Nun renewed for season 2 at Netflix?

The writers also teased they’re already beginning planning, plus by most metrics, the show performed well. Soon after the series was released, we heard under good authority that Warrior Nun had already been renewed for season 2.

Simon Barry, who serves as the showrunner for Warrior Nun, said the following in an interview regarding the future (before it received official renewal):

“When we were finishing Season 1, we had many more avenues to go down story-wise. So we created a folder thinking, hey, if we’re lucky enough to get Season 2, here are some things we could draw from. After seeing the show completed, we regrouped just to talk about ideas.”

The show was officially renewed on August 19th, 2020, with a selection of the cast and crew coming together via a virtual call to confirm that season 2 is officially happening.

What to expect from Warrior Nun season 2

The climactic end to the first season of Warrior Nun left fans drooling for more kick-ass action.

The Order of the Cruciform Sword’s true purpose was revealed, being nothing more than puppets for Adriel against the forces of Heaven. His true identity was revealed by Ava after he touches her. The original knights of the order mistook him for an angel after he successfully killed a Tarask monster that followed him out of a demonic portal.

Hiding himself away in the tombs of the Vatican, Adriel had hidden the halo inside the original Warrior Nun, and by creating the Order, gave him protection from Heaven.

After escaping his tomb, Adrial seeks to recapture the halo from the Order and proceed with his nefarious plans.

Despite her gusto, Shotgun Mary was overwhelmed by the possessed forces of Adrial, leaving Ava and the other sisters to take on Adrial his small army of Wraith Demons.

The next season will see Ava and the Order bringing the fight to Adriel. With the devil now revealing himself to the world, instead of standing alone, the forces of heaven may descend upon the Vatican and give assistance to the Order.

While outmatched in power, for the time being, Ava’s skill as the Warrior Nun is growing. Given enough time, Ava is likely to be more than a match in combat against Adriel and his demonic powers.

One thing is certain: The existence of The Order of the Cruciform Sword is built on a lie. So it’s up to Ava and the remaining sisters to bring its new meaning.

There’s also the little issue of Father Vincent’s betrayal that leads to Sister Shannon’s demise. Suffice to say the girls may commit a cardinal sin if they seek to issue wrathful vengeance upon their former mentor.

Simon Barry also teased some other things we can expect from season 2 in an interview with Looper, saying:

“Well, I guess we were holding back so many secrets in a way in season one. The fact that we now have the cat is out of the bag, so to speak, in terms of the mythology of the show. I think it’ll be really exciting to take that journey and unpack what we’ve revealed.

The appearance of Adriel, the relationship with Father Vincent, and also as the stakes have changed for Ava and the other sister warriors. For me, it really is building on what we did well in season one — and hopefully doing a better job at season 2, if we get it.”


When can we expect season 2 of Warrior Nun on Netflix?

Season 2 of Warrior Nun is confirmed to come to Netflix in 2022.

Filming for season 1 took place between March 11th, 2019, and July 5th, 2019. It then took almost a full year for the series to arrive on Netflix around the globe.

In June 2021, showrunner Simon Barry shared numerous pictures in Spain, where they were location scouting.

Location scouting is essentially visiting various locations and mapping out where scenes would be shot. The show was essentially in pre-production at that point, with scripts written and just planning taking place, which is essential to ensure a smooth production.

David Hayter, who serves as a director on the series, confirmed on Twitter that he was in Spain for 6 months from May 2021 for production on the show.

Filming then got underway, according to Simon Barry, on July 26th, 2021.

On August 6th, Barry posted a very moody picture from the set of Warrior Nun season 2.

The main unit of Warrior Nun wrapped up filming on November 3rd, according to Simon Barry, who thanked his cast and crew.

In the Tweet Barry said:

“That is a wrap on Warrior Nun main unit s2! Sincere thanks to our amazing crew and cast that give 100% every day. Thank you Madrid for being such a wonderful home and to Netflix & Fresco Film Services for supporting our crazy vision. Can’t wait to share this epic s2 with everyone!”

In late February 2022, Simon Barry provided an update on the process. When asked where season 2 was on Twitter, Barry responded:

“It’s in several thousand small digital parts in a massive Netflix server, being reassembled by brilliantly talented artists who need to shape it just right so that it melts your brain in the desired fashion we imagined.”

Simon Barry has also shared several behind-the-scenes look at Warrior Nun S2.
