Warrior Nun is a fantasy drama show that tells the story of an orphan who suddenly discovers that she possesses mysterious supernatural powers. It is based on a comic book character named Warrior Nun Areala created by Ben Dunn.

The first season of the show received mostly positive reviews, with most viewers and critics praising the series' thematic ambitions, unique tone, and performances by the cast, among various other things.

The series was renewed for season 2 in August 2020, and it premiered last month. The show continues with the story of Ava who desperately looks to fight the angel, Adriel. Here's a short description of the second season shared by Netflix on their official YouTube channel:

''Ava and the Sister-Warriors of the OCS must find a way to defeat the angel, Adriel, as he attempts to build his following into the dominant religion on the planet.''

The second season received praise for its thrilling storyline, stellar performances by the actors, and visual aesthetics. Some critics, however, took issue with the series' overall pacing. Warrior Nun has managed to garner a small but loyal fanbase over the last couple of years.

The series stars Alba Baptista as Ava Silva in the lead role. Alba has been phenomenal throughout the show's run and has received immense critical acclaim for her performance. Apart from the series, Baptista is also known for her performances in A Impostora, Fatima, and Jogo Duplo, to name a few.

The rest of the supporting cast members include actors like Lorena Andrea as Sister Lilith, Kristina Tonteri-Young as Sister Beatrice, and Tristán Ulloa as Father Vincent, among others.

Warrior Nun is currently available for streaming on Netflix.
