'Warrior': A lover, an Irish leader, and a man of resources, 3 unsung heroes you need to look out for in Cinemax's series

Although they are not the chief characters in the story, their presence is necessary to accelerate the plot

Cinemax's 'Warrior' is set to follow the plight of Chinese immigrants in an unruly 20th century Chinatown; a time when San Fransisco, along with other cities in America, was smeared with blood by the Tong Wars. Coming from creator Jonathan Tropper and directed by Justin Lin, the show is based on the actual script written by Bruce Lee which was rejected back in the 1970s due to its demand for an Asian lead.

However, now that Lee's daughter, Shannon Lee, has taken up the initiative to bring her father's work back to life, 'Warrior' will see an ensemble of Asian cast, making the show one of its kind. Starring Andrew Koji (Ah Sahm), Olivia Cheng (Ah Toy), Dianne Doan (Mai Ling), and Jason Tobin (Young Jun), the story will follow a martial arts warrior, Ah Sahm, who arrives in San Fransisco in search of someone he lost a very long time ago.
