The wait for a live-action “Halo” is almost over. The tv series based on the ever-popular video game franchise has been in development for years. Steven Spielberg has been trying to get it made since 2013. SHOWTIME picked it up in 2018, and it’s sort of been kicking around ever since.
Casting was announced in 2019, including Yerin Ha, Bokeem Woodbine, Shabana Azmi, Bentley Kalu, Natasha Culzac, and Kate Kennedy. Original Cortana actress Jen Taylor replacedNatascha McElhone. And of course, Pablo Schreiber as Master Chief.
In 2020, it was revealed that “Halo” had moved from SHOWTIME to the newly launched streaming service Paramount+. And earlier this year, we got our first tease of the series. We know that tonight during The Game Awards, we’ll get the full trailer.
Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief.
Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence.
Though she be but little, she is fierce.
