After years of waiting and waiting, some fans have been wondering if we would ever see a live-action Master Chief. Now, the Xbox 20th Anniversary Celebration live stream has given us our first real look at the upcoming Alone TV series.
The series in question will debut on the Paramount + streaming service in the first quarter of 2022. And in case you missed yesterday’s Xbox livestream, the show’s official Twitter account shared the teaser. Alone TV show:
What can we expect from the show? It will be nine episodes and will serve as an adaptation of the Halo game series. But the teaser doesn’t really clarify whether this will adapt particular games or books, or maybe just serve as an extended origin story for our favorite armored hero.
What we do know is that the show has a solid cast. Pablo Schreiber (best known for his work on American gods) will play Master Chief and Natascha McElhone (best known for her work on Californication) will play Dr. Catherine Elizabeth Halsey.
Worried about who they might be playing Cortana? Don’t Be: Familiar Cortana voice actress Jen Taylor will play Cortana on the show, giving a nice sense of continuity between the games and the series.
There is a lot to be advertised here, but also some cause for concern. After all, showrunner Steven Kane has confirmed he won’t be returning for a second season. So while fans love these first nine episodes, the show’s future could be very different.
Are you excited about this show or not? Be sure to let us know in the comments!
