It’s been well over a month since Halo Bearers received the news they’d been waiting for, but status updates on the Warrior Nun trilogy have been few and far between ever since. Of course, the strikes have played a huge part in slowing the rollout of news, castings, and potential story directions, but there’s finally a light at the end of that particular tunnel.
Showrunner and executive producer Simon Barry still hasn’t been officially confirmed as part of the creative team yet, but that’s surely on the horizon now that the WGA has finally reached a deal to be compensated fairly for its work. In the meantime, producer Dean English has been shouldering the burden in terms of dropping tantalizing tidbits, even if he’s hardly been prolific in that regard.

Fans will inevitably rebel if one or the pair of them are missing, placing English in a very curious position as virtually the only person drumming up excitement despite being severely limited by what he can and can’t say under the industry’s current circumstances.
