Halo’s live-action TV series will premiere in March on Paramount Plus

Paramount Plus dropped us some teasers that are tantalizingly short, ahead of a more meaty trailer later today. It also confirmed the date of the show’s premiere: March 24, 2022.

Although the first trailer is just 21 seconds long, it reveals a lot more about the world Halo TV series. We last saw a live-action trailer which mainly showed the people Master Chief will be featuring.

Here’s the social media tease, in all its 21-second glory.

Just a few weeks ago, the first Halo TV series trailer (opens in new window) was released. Although the teaser gave us a glimpse at Spartan soldiers, iconic Halo weapons and vehicles, it did not reveal much about the story. We’re hoping to learn more about the story later today.

The Halo TV series features Pablo Schreiber (Orange Is the New Black), Natasha McElhone(Californication), and Jen Taylor (Halo series vocal actor) as Cortana. Olive Grey (EastEnders), as Dr. Miranda Keyes, while Bokeem woodbine (Fargo), as a Spartan called Soren-066.
