The Halo TV show will be as vast and complex as 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Game of Thrones, says 343 Industries Transmedia chief Kiki Wolfkill (via♍ ).
The studio took over the Halo franchise after Bungie's split from Microsoft and has slowly shown that it is much more than a game developer. Though it had its fair share of setbacks and criticism for the changes that it made to the franchise, its cinematic videos showed many that a Halo movie might be a real possibility. That possibility became a reality when the company released Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn, a web series that took place within the Halo universe. While it received mixed reviews from critics, fans of the Halo franchise applauded the company's efforts.
Given what 343 Industries was able to do with , there's a chance that the new television series can be even greater. While its budget per episode hasn't yet been announced, Wolfkill's statement seems to indicate that Microsoft is willing to spare no expense to bring the Halo universe to life. Since game companies are now taking control of their 🐻own titles through different media mediums, there's a good possibility that fans of popular game series will be able to experience them in the way that the original creators truly intended.
While speaking on The Game Maker's Notebook podcast, Wolfkill indicated that the production team behind the newly announced Showtime television series sought to create a universe and environment similar to that of Game of Thrones in size and scope. She stated that the company planned to dive deeper into political aspects of the series that are only touched upon in the video games. While the specifics of the show aren't yet known, we do know that 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Ma🍸ster Chief will be portrayed by Pablo Schreiber.
It's clear from this statement that Wolfkill and 343🦂 Industries are very confident about ဣthe project. While we won't know until the release of the first episode if such confidence is warranted, many fans are excited that the company has chosen to focus on the story behind Master Chief first and foremost.
In fairness, there's not a lot to criticize as it is probably safe to assume that the television series will need to be equal in scope to Game of Thrones if it hopes to bring the Halo franchise to life. That being said, making such a comparison so early is troublesome since it might cause viewers to compare Game of Thrones and the Halo project.
The Halo TV ♋show does not yet currently have a release date, but will likely be coming to us sometime in 2020.
