All-out war breaks out in San Francisco’s Chinatown in Warrior S2 finale
Andrew Koji returns as Ah Sahm, a Chinese martial arts expert embroiled in the Tong Wars and other conflicts in 19th-century San Francisco in Warrior, now airing on Cinemax.
Martial arts period drama Warrior, inspired by the writings of Bruce Lee, wraps up its second season tonight on Cinemax as all-out war breaks out between the Chinese tongs and the Irish mob in 19th-century San Francisco's Chinatown. We sat down with showrunner Jonathan Tropper (Banshee) to learn more about this action-packed season, a hero's journey, and what kind of future Warrior might have going forward.
(Spoilers for season 1 below; only very mild spoilers for season 2.)
Warrior follows a young Chinese martial arts prodigy, Ah Sahm (Andrew Koji, Fast and Furious 6), who arrives in 19th-century San Francisco to look for his long-lost sister.

Ah Sahm also must contend with rising anti-immigrant sentiment against the Chinese and a forbidden interracial romance.
