The Halo Bearers can barely believe it as ‘Warrior Nun’ lives to fight another day

Never bet against a show about sword-wielding lesbians.

Of all the transgressions Netflix has committed against the young adult fantasy genre, none were quite so poorly received as those against Warrior Nun, Simon Barry‘s fantasy drama series that got the axe back in Dec. 13 2022; anyone who had the show on their radar in any capacity is no stranger to the overwhelming wave of petitions and calls for revival that the fandom responded with.

History isn’t going to remember the day of Dec. 13, 2022; no, history will instead remember June 28, 2023, the day that Barry himself officially announced that the battle had been won, and Warrior Nun would be making its return. It’s still unclear where fans of the show will be continuing this journey (we can probably rule out Netflix, of course), but it seems as though details are a mere luxury in light of this elating news, as Twitter’s #SaveWarriorNun army have taken to celebrating their hearts out.

The timing is delightfully fitting as well, as the news of Warrior Nun‘s revival has come as a sort of last-minute hurrah for Pride Month; Warrior Nun, of course, being an unabashedly sapphic series.

With Adriel vanquished and a Holy War brewing, fans went far too long not knowing from one day to the next if Ava and company’s precarious plight would remain forever unexplored, but today, the fandom has proved that if you believe hard enough, the combined desires of the human spirit can move mountains and, apparently, resurrect television shows.

Today is yours, Halo Bearers; drink it all in.
