Paramount+’s two-minute official trailer for the sci-fi thriller Halo teases that when events spiral out of control, we save what we can. “Looking at your faces, I do not see defeat and I do not see surrender,” says Captain Jacob Keyes (Danny Sapani). Master Chief and the Spartans have heroes on their side, while the Covenant does not.
Pablo Schreiber (American Gods) returns to lead the video game-inspired series as Master Chief, Spartan-117, with Natascha McElhone (Californication) back as Dr. Halsey. Returning cast members include Jen Taylor (HALO game series, RWBY), Bokeem Woodbine (Fargo), Shabana Azmi (Fire), Natasha Culzac (The Witcher), Olive Gray (Half Moon Investigations), and Yerin Ha (Reef Break). Also back for season two are Bentley Kalu (Avengers: Age of Ultron), Kate Kennedy (Catastrophe), Charlie Murphy (Peaky Blinders), Danny Sapani (Penny Dreadful), Fiona O’Shaughnessy (The Forgiven), and Tylan Bailey.
Halo newcomers include Joseph Morgan (The Originals), Cristina Rodlo (No One Gets Out of Here Alive), and Christina Bennington (Midsomer Murders).
Season two will premiere on February 8, 2024 with the release of the first two episodes. New episodes arrive on Thursdays.
“In season two, Master Chief John-117 leads his team of elite Spartans against the alien threat known as the Covenant. In the wake of a shocking event on a desolate planet, John cannot shake the feeling that his war is about to change and risks everything to prove what no one else will believe – that the Covenant is preparing to attack humanity’s greatest stronghold,” reads Paramount+’s synopsis. “With the galaxy on the brink, John embarks on a journey to find the key to humankind’s salvation, or its extinction: the Halo.”
David Wiener (Brave New World) guides the series as showrunner and executive producer. Additional executive producers include Amblin Televisions’ Steven Spielberg, Darryl Frank, and Justin Falvey, and Xbox/343 Industries’ Kiki Wolfkill. Otto Bathurst and Toby Leslie for One Big Picture and Gian Paolo Varani also executive produce. Series stars Pablo Schreiber and Natascha McElhone serve as producers.
