Today's AFC game touted a special reveal at the halftime: a trailer for the Halo TV series. Master Chief and Cortana were shown, with Pablo Schreiber cast as the former. The teaser also gave the air date for the series, which will be streaming exclusively on Paramount+, available on March 24.

I don't get it, why they always make films / series of military games. although halo has a little bit more to offer than your regulary military shooter. I think cortana looks great.

They couldn’t even get Steve Downes to voice master chief....I wonder why (HINT: CTRL + F for “Union”)

Also why do I feel like this shit is going to be more about the zoomer Spartans than about John. (Aka Pacific Rim 2)

Everything about this looks like crap. Looks really cheap with terrible acting, and Master Chief is still one of the dumbest character names. I know it's a ranking, but it still sounds dumb.

mum joke will make it closer to original source.

I would have been your daddy but a dog beat me over the fence

Sure. If you enjoy watching low quality streaming video on a tiny screen. Sounds thrilling, captivating, and immersive.

Ah, yeah no... thanks.

You can replace that app with "any tracker" and have better experience.

Looks a bit... meh, fan-made
Cortana is not blue, and something weird happened to the Keyes family <.<

It's actually 1080p but yeah no 4k from this app.

Looks very promising and I'm not even a Halo fan. Heck, I used to think the green man was called Halo to only later find out he's Master Chief.

It's a bit like someone thinking Link is called "Zelda."

Because Halo is a person's name?
I always thought it referred to the circular space station's geometrical form.

maybe one day I'll play the game series and finally understand it
I hope the series will cover the story of Halo be understandable for the ones who never played the game.

Trailer looks interesting, could turn out to be a good series.

The only thing I found off were the dudes sporting AK-47s. Seriously AKs!? In the future! Should have done what every other good sci-fi does, mix and match and modify old and existing weapons into cool futuristic weapons, ala StarWars or Aliens.

Master Chief sounds cool to me, both as a Navy Rank and as a character's name in a Sci-fi FPS...unless you want him to be Master Chief Petty Officer or Master Chief Diver

If the trailer is anything to go by, seems fan service with awful acting. Hope I'm wrong.

Phil Collins doesn't help.

I've read Halo 3, Halo Reach, and the newest one are the best to play. Unfortunately, I don't have an Xbox around right now to play Halo so I'll make do with this show.

Not holding my breath for this one.. The casting look out of place, the CGI look okay i guess, some action scenes (to reassure fans), but the Halo experience is much more than just those things. But we'll see..

It's Paramount+ so I'm giving it a chance.

For example, 1883 (prequel to Yellowstone) took a few episodes to "get" good, but it finally did and I'm enjoying it

 

[BLsquared]

Not too sure about this low budget non canon fan film, boss. I haven't played all the games, but even I can tell this isn't the same thing. And the plot seems to be pretty predictable for "military" movies we have these days. *Sigh*

Very highly compressed 1080p.

 

[Paulsar99]

Meh not really expecting much from hollywood.

Cool will surely check this out
