Trailer: Warrior Nun series coming to Netflix in July

Last year, we heard that Netflix was working on a live-action series inspired by Ben Dunn's manga-style comic book Warrior Nun Areala. Now a trailer for the show has been released online, along with confirmation that the first season of Warrior Nun will be reaching the Netflix streaming service on July 2nd.

The series stars Alba Baptista as 

Ava, a 19-year-old woman who wakes up in a morgue with a new lease on life and a divine artifact embedded in her back. She discovers she is now part of an ancient order that has been tasked with fighting demons on Earth, and powerful forces representing both heaven and hell want to find and control her.

Also in the cast are Toya Turner as Shotgun Mary, "a woman loyal to the sisterhood more than the Church"; Tristan Ulloa as Father Vincent, "the spiritual and strategic leader of the Order of the Cruciform Sword"; Thekla Reuten as Jillian Salvius, "CEO of a tech startup who has challenged the Vatican’s power directly by making a discovery that could make religion obsolete"; Kristina Tonteri-Young as Young Sister Beatrice, "a powerful Sister Warrior and the team's resident strategist"; Lorena Andrea as Sister Lilith, "a legacy Nun who is committed to her beliefs, which causes her to overstep and over-reach in her entitlement"; and Emilio Sakraya as JC, "the charismatic leader of a group of alluring petty criminals".

Warrior Nun is only loosely based on Warrior Nun Areala. The show was created by executive producer Simon Barry.

Like I said when I first heard about this project, even though I'm not familiar with the source material I am totally on board to watch a show about a Warrior Nun.
