Paramount Plus’Haloseries won’t drop until late March, but that won’t stop the company from putting its faith in it as it’s been revealed Master Chief’s television debut has been renewed for a second season, even before the first one’s premiere.
TheHaloseries underwent a rocky production process as filming suffered several delays due to the effect of the pandemic, however, during 2021’s Game Awards the live-action Master Chief was finally revealed. This was followed by the show’s first full trailer being dropped in January, leaving fans intrigued and in some cases divided, due to creative decisions like Cortana’s design.

TheHaloseries will star 6’5 actor Pablo Schreiber as Master Chief alongside several new Spartans exclusive to the series, though fans of the games will be more thrilled to know fans Jen Taylor (Cortana) and Natascha McElhone (Dr. Catherine Halsey) will be reprising their respective roles. Judging from early looks, it seems theHaloseries features great attention to detailsince the trailer had several easter eggs and references fans could find.
Paramount will be hoping theHaloseries does far better thanHalo Infinite, as the much-anticipated game is strugglingwith waning popularity among its player base, especially on platforms likeTwitch where viewership continues to go down. One of the biggest criticisms the game has received is the lack of Forge Mode, thoughHalo Infinite could fix that soon enough, as well as multiple issues with its online multiplayer.
Halo is by far Microsoft’s biggest gaming property, even among growing library that continues to be bolstered via acquisitions, so it’s easy to see why some fan are bothered by thedesign differences between theHalogames and seriesalready. Whatever the case, it looks like Master Chief’s streaming mission is just getting started.
Halothe TV series is set to premiere on Paramount Plus on Jun 12, 2025.
