HALO: NIGHTFALL Digital Feature First Look Featurette
Microsoft and Xbox Entertainment have released a featurette that give us our first look at their upcoming Halo: Nightfall digital feature. Not only does it include a behind-the-scenes look at the film, but it also features some actual footage that looks really cool, as well as a brief look at the video game Halo 5: Guardians.
Halo: Nightfall stars Mike Colter as Jameson Locke, "a surgically-enhanced super soldier who is a rising star in a futuristic Spartan army and troubled by the military industrial complex he inhabits." The film is set between the events of Halo 4 and the upcoming Halo 5: Guardians, in which the character Locke will play an integral role.
Sergio Mimica-Gezzan is directing the project from a script written by Prison Break series creator Paul Scheuring. This is the Halo project that is being produced by Ridley Scott and David Zucker.
The film is in addition to the live-action series that Steven Spielberg is producing for Xbox One. Halo: Nightfall is included as part of Halo: The Master Chief Collection and will be accessible digitally on Xbox Live beginning on November 11th, 2014.
