After a long and troubled pre-production, it's finally time to start filming: the Twitter channel of the Halo TV series,produced by Showtime, you have in fact posted a photo of the main cast announcing that the first "table read" of the script has just taken place (i.e. when all the actors meet to read their parts together) and the production is now in the process of being started.

However, it will be more than a year before we can see it on TV: the debut of the series dedicated to the Master Chief is in fact expected for the first quarter of 2021,with the production company, Showtime, which revealed it is its most ambitious project of all time.

We remind you that, while Showtime finances the project, the actual production is entrusted to Steven Spielberg's Amblin Television; The director is Otto Bathurst,known for directing several episodes of the Black Mirror, Peaky Blinders and Robin Hood series of 2018, while the role of Master Chief is entrusted to Pablo Schreiber,known for his roles in the TV series American Gods, First Man and Orange Is the New Black. The actress who will play Cortana and Dr. Halsey, Natascha McElhone,who has already been seen in Californication, Designated Survivor and Solaris,has also recently been revealed.

We just have to wait and hope to see the first trailers of the series soon!
