When we set out to create a television series about Halo and the Master Chief, our goal was not only to create an epic sci-fi adventure that was fun, but also delved into the characters, the personal stories, and the incredible immerse yourself in the vast and detailed universe of Halo, most of which we’ve only seen through the games. It’s a sci-fi series about heroes who are both heroic and fallible, about having hope in the face of overwhelming odds, and a central question – what are we willing to sacrifice our humanity to save them?
Today, as we hold our first screening of the television series Halo at the South by Southwest Festival, we’re excited to share the latest (and final) trailer for the show – one that offers a glimpse into this personal side of storytelling, the Halo series while expressing the central Halo themes of hope, heroism, humanity, and wonder. This is character drama set against the backdrop of epic missions and all the action and mystery that comes with Halo. This trailer is titled “Look Beyond” because we’re all looking beyond where we are today and at the possibilities that lie ahead.
This show has been an affair of the heart for many and it is an extraordinary feeling to be able to share our pilot episode at SXSW. Along with some of our amazing cast and our showrunner, we’ll also have the opportunity to discuss the reactions with press and fans afterwards. It has been an honor and privilege to work alongside the talented producers and actors who brought the universe and characters to life and shared with the world.
For our biggest fans on Xbox, we’re also excited to announce that they’ll be able to watch the series from day one – Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members can stream Halo free for 30 days via available Perks via an exclusive offer from Paramount+ Claim from March 23rd.
With the start of the TV series fast approaching, we can’t wait for you all to join us on the journey when it streams exclusively on Paramount+ starting March 24th.
