New HALO Clip Features Master Chief Scanning for Abnormalities

The first episode of the Halo series debuts tomorrow on Paramount+, and in anticipation of that, we have a new clip to share with you. The clip features Pablo Schreiber's Master Chief as he undergoes a routine status check while fielding questions from United Nations Space Command (UNSC) captive Kwan Ha (Yerin Ha).

The series is set in the 26th-century, and it dramatizes the 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. Nobody can save humanity alone-not even the Master Chief. Meet the heroes who will risk losing everything to come together and protect humankind from the universe's greatest threat.”

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.”

I really want this series to be good, but I have my doubts after reading how the creative team pretty much decided to just do their own thing and completely ignore the source material while developing the series.

The series stars also Natasha Culzac as Riz-028, Bentley Kalu as Vannak 134, Kate Kennedy as Kai-125. The 10-episode series is set to premiere on Paramount+ on March 24th, 2022.
