After years of hype, the live-action Halo series got a teaser trailer. Oh, and the show will premiere sometime next year!
The teaser doesn’t give a ton to go on but we know that Master Chief and Cortana will be in the show. There are close-ups of Chief’s MJOLNIR armor and a single line of dialogue. “Hello, Master Chief,” Cortana says during the teaser. It sounds like Jen Taylor, who has been voicing Cortana for 20 years now, is reprising her role. So it seems like the showrunners are trying to be as faithful to the games as possible.
Check out the Halo teaser for yourself below.

The series will stream exclusively on Paramount Plus in the US. It’s kind of weird to simply call the show Halo since that’ll likely lead to a lot of confused googling. But whatever, at least we’ll get to see what Grunts look like in horrifying live-action detail. Keith David needs to come back as the Arbiter too, please — mandibles on his face and everything.
Other announcements from the Xbox 20th anniversary event include Halo Infinite’s surprise beta launch and 76 new games coming to Xbox’s backward compatibility program.
