The initial teaser for “Chief of War,” a sweeping historical drama from Apple TV+, has been unveiled. This highly anticipated production is headed by Jason Momoa who stars, co-creates, and serves as an executive producer.

I’m immersed in an extraordinary nine-episode journey, inspired by real-life events and seen through the eyes of indigenous Hawaiians. As a gamer, I find myself stepping into the role of Ka’iana, a legendary warrior portrayed brilliantly by Jason Momoa. This gripping tale unfolds in the late 18th century, where my character is on a challenging mission to bring unity to the Hawaiian Islands. However, the impending threat of Western colonization looms large, potentially altering our destiny forever. This project is more than just a role for Jason Momoa and co-creator Thomas Pa’a Sibbett; it’s a deeply personal endeavor, reflecting our shared native Hawaiian heritage.

The preview offers stunning views of Hawaii, action-packed fight scenes, and a predominantly Polynesian cast featuring Luciane Buchanan, Temuera Morrison, and Cliff Curtis. This series will premiere globally on Apple TV+, starting with the first two episodes on August 1, 2025, with subsequent episodes released weekly until September 19. Moreover, Jason Momoa directs the season finale, ensuring a deeply personal and visually stunning ending to this important historical storyline.
