Master Chief Drops Into Action in First Stunning Trailer for the HALO Series
Paramount+ has released the first trailer for its upcoming live-action Halo series, and it looks like the show will have been worth the wait. Judging from this footage the series visually look stunning, I just hope that the story ends up being good!
The story follows the “epic 26th-century conflict between humanity and an alien threat known as the Covenant, Halo the series will weave deeply drawn personal stories with action, adventure and a richly imagined vision of the future.”
Master Chief is described as Earth’s most advanced warrior and “the only hope of salvation for a civilization pushed to the brink of destruction by the Covenant, an unstoppable alliance of alien worlds committed to the destruction of humanity.”
When recently talking about the story, Master Chief star Pablo Schreiber says, "It takes place very much in the universe that the video games created, but it's a it's a TV show. We get to expand that universe and create stories in it. There's going to be some new characters that are introduced, there's going to be a lot of familiar characters that everyone will know from the game."
This series is said to respect the Halo canon and everything in the games, comics, novels, and previously made series was taken into account when developing this story.
The 10-episode Steven Spielberg-produced series is set to premiere on Paramount+ in 2022.
