Warnie was a planned, but never made, Australian miniseries based on the Australian cricketer and socialite Shane Warne. [1]

Production[]

In September 2016, it was reported that seven episodes were in pre-production to create a series based on Shane Warne;[2][3] in October 2016, the series was officially announced in Seven's upfronts.[4] However, no-one really thought of such a project, and it was axed in 2017 without even being made.[5]
