Chief of War follows a Hawaiian warrior chief who embarks on a relentless campaign to unite the warring island tribes, aiming to protect his people from the looming threat of foreign colonization. At the heart of this sweeping saga is the character of Kamehameha the Great, portrayed by newcomer Kaina Makua, whose rise to power marks one of the most significant moments in Polynesian history. The cast also features Luciane Buchanan, Temuera Morrison, Cliff Curtis, Te Ao o Hinepehinga, Moses Goods, Siua Ikale'o, and others, bringing depth and authenticity to this culturally resonant story.
The series is a passion project for creators Jason Momoa and Thomas Pa'a Sibbett, both of whom have deep ancestral ties to Hawai'i. Their commitment to telling this story from a native Hawaiian point of view ensures that Chief of War is not just another historical war drama—it’s a reclamation of narrative and heritage. Additional writing comes from Doug Jung, who also serves as showrunner, while acclaimed filmmaker Justin Chon directs several episodes.
With stunning visuals, visceral action, and powerful cultural undertones, Chief of War is poised to be a landmark series in both scope and significance. Slated to premiere on Apple TV+ on August 1, 2025, the show promises to deliver a gripping tale of resistance, leadership, and legacy—rooted in truth and driven by pride.
