Halo is a forthcoming live-action army science fiction television show modeled on the Halo video game brand in the United States. The conflict between the United Nations Space Force and the extra-terrestrial Covenant in the 26th century will be the subject of the show. Pablo Schreiber, Natascha McElhone, Charlie Murphy, Jen Taylor, Shabana Azmi, Bokeem Woodbine, Kate Kennedy, Natasha Culzac, Yerin Ha, and Bentley Kalu will appear in the show. Otto Bathurst, Jonathan Liebesman, M. J. Bassett, Roel Reiné, and Jet Wilkinson will helm the episodes. 

Nearly three and a half years after it was approved for series, a couple of sneak peeks of TV’s live-action Halo adaptation, which is currently heading for Paramount+ (initially at Showtime), have been unveiled. During Xbox’s 20th annual event on Monday, a teaser for the rendition of the video game franchise was presented.

About Halo

Halo’s gigantic world and characters will be brought to light in this television series, which is set to launch in “2022,” as announced in February. The program aims to chronicle an epic 26th-century war involving mankind and an extraterrestrial menace named the Covenant, based in the very same setting that initially sprang to life in 2001 with Xbox’s first videogame in the series. According to the summary, Halo will mix finely developed personal storylines with combat, thrill, and a beautifully conceived view of the tomorrow.

Master Chief is characterised as Earth’s greatest advanced fighter in the 26th century and the last chance of redemption for a society on the verge of extinction by the Covenant, an unbreakable union of alien planets dedicated to the annihilation of mankind.

Halo Teaser Breakdown

The recently released teaser shows Master Chief’s horribly scarred body, accompanied by close-ups of his armored gloves, his uniform’s 117 badges, and the rear of his head as his headgear is equipped on. The A.I. Cortana (dubbed by Jen Taylor from the video games) then says, “Hello, Master Chief,” until we see the front of his headgear.

Halo under the Development 

The television show had been in the developmental stage for years, with a scheduled release date in 2015 with Steven Spielberg as producer, later modified to a 2019 premiere with Rupert Wyatt as showrunner, following a 2020 release, and now Otto Bathurst as producer, with the series set to premiere in 2022. 

On May 21, 2013, Xbox Entertainment Studios and Spielberg’s business Amblin Television announced that Steven Spielberg would be executive developing a television series centered on the Halo video game franchise. The series was still in the developing stage as of August 2015. 

Showtime was handed a 10-episode show contract on June 28, 2018. Rupert Wyatt was engaged as a filmmaker and executive producer, while Kyle Killen was planned to be creator, screenwriter, and executive producer.  On August 12, it was revealed that Master Chief would be the show’s primary protagonist and that the show will tell a fresh narrative focused on the video games while being true to the franchise’s backstory.   

Due to scheduling problems, Wyatt stepped out as director and executive producer on December 3. In February 2019, he was succeeded by Otto Bathurst. Steven Kane was recruited as a co-showrunner with Killen in March 2019. The show was relocated from Showtime to Paramount+ on February 24, 2021. 

Showtime executive Gary Levine claimed the program was an aberration for the company’s image, and that it would have been a better match on Paramount’s platform as a great major blockbuster show. On June 25, 2021, it was announced that Kane and Killien would be stepping down as the show’s creators at the end of season one. Killian had resigned before the commencement of operations because he didn’t think he could handle the responsibilities of director, and Kane took over as primary showrunner till the post-production process was finished. Kane, on the other hand, would not continue if the program was renewed for a second season. 

The series’ casting was confirmed between April and August 2019, with Pablo Schreiber playing Master Chief. Yerin Ha, Natascha McElhone, Bokeem Woodbine, Shabana Azmi, Bentley Kalu, Natasha Culzac, and Kate Kennedy were among those who joined him. Jen Taylor took over as Cortana in November 2020, replacing McElhone. Principle shooting for the film began in October 2019. The series’ filming expenditures in 2019 were more than $40 million. During the coronavirus outbreak, the five recorded episodes were re-edited, and work on the sixth episode and reshoots were set to begin after the world resumed normalcy.

Halo Release Date

The show is set to air at the beginning of 2022 on Paramount+. As of now, no specific date has been provided by the makers regarding the release.

People wishing for additional content from the Halo series had to make do with a tease or a peek of some of the most recognisable characters and their attire previous to this teaser. Among the photos shown in the previews were shots of Cortana and weaponry, as well as a glimpse of a portion of Master Chief’s headgear. With the very first teaser trailer currently out, we can expect to see all of the other teasers and clips leading up to the series premiere. Of course, the fans are ecstatic after seeing the sneak peek in the world of Halo! Well, we have to wait and watch out for the series when it gets released!

Netflix has a new Korean horror drama called Hellbound is on the horizon, just a few months after the phenomenal popularity of Squid Game, which has been hailed as “Netflix’s most successful series yet.” 

The world of Hellbound is set in a realm where select people have been told the precise time and date of their demise. Worse yet, when the time comes, enormous creatures appear and drag their souls to hell. Netflix published a great trailer in September depicting these creatures pursuing down somebody, but the majority of the series will focus on a strange congregation that believes the creatures are heavenly, with a variety of personalities investigating the religion and its cult-like leader. The plot is inspired by filmmaker Yeon Sang Ho’s webtoon, which is available exclusively in Korean.

Hellbound Trailer Netflix

The primary trailer begins on an ominous note, revealing the true nature of a Hellbound edict. Incredible hellish activities occurred right in front of audiences in the heart of Seoul. Strange beings sentence people to hell, and unearthly beings emerge at precisely the right time to execute the condemned in a terrible fire. 

The dominating voice of Jung Jinsu, the head of an up-and-coming religious group called The New Truth, rises above the absolute pandemonium caused by these unexplainable paranormal events. He says that only offenders are destined for judgement and that these events are the result of God’s intention to make humanity pure. The Arrowhead, a gang of his mindless supporters, takes the vengeance of those who go awry out of their own arms.

Chairman Jung is challenged by Min Hyejin, a lawyer, who claims that the demonstrations of hell are simply mystical phenomena. She teams up with a select people who are simply attempting to safeguard the damned and revert to the planet to the dominion of people rather than gods. They are up against The New Truth’s instigation of mayhem.

Sang-ho, who directed Train to Busan and its sequel, continues to helm Hellbound’s whole six-episode run. Yoo Ah-in, Park Jeong-min, Kim Hyun-Joo, and Won Jin-ah will appear in the series.   

Death cults, ethical issues, and an Asian spin on Catholic conceptions of Good and Evil are all common topics in contemporary Japanese and Korean pop stories. There’s a lot of movement, yelling, blood, and devastation in this Korean gothic horror thriller helmed by one of the country’s best action directors. But that’s exactly why people tune in to a show called Hellbound.

Hellbound Release Date Netflix

On September 9, 2021, the first three episodes of the series were exhibited at the ‘Primetime’ section of the Toronto International Film Festival, making it the first Korean drama to reach it to the carnival. The first three episodes were also exhibited at the 26th Busan International Film Festival on October 7, 2021, in the freshly established ‘On Screen’ section, and at the 65th BFI London Film Festival on October 15, 2021, in the ‘Thrill’ part. On November 19, 2021, it will be available to stream on Netflix.

The BTS trailer for Shazam 2! Fury of the Gods has been published, presenting the first scenes from the DC film. The successor to 2019’s Shazam! was announced shortly following the original film’s debut, and the core ensemble is likely to reprise their roles. With filmmaker David F. Sandberg at the command, Asher Angel reprises his role as Billy Batson, and Zachary Levi reprises his role as his heroic alter-ego Shazam. 

Members of Billy’s foster family, including Jack Dylan Grazer as Freddy Freeman, Faithe Herman as Darla, Grace Fulton as Mary, Ian Chen as Eugene, and Jovan Armand as Pedro, will also reappear. Adam Brody, Meagan Goode, Fulton, Russ Butler, and D.J. Cotrona will of course portray their superhero alter identities.

‘Shazam! Fury of the Gods’ will start where the first flick ended, with Batson’s foster family possessing the ability to morph into superheroes. In 2021, actress Rachel Zegler entered the sequel’s ensemble to portray a secret crucial part, whilst Helen Mirren and Lucy Liu added the villainesses ‘Hespera’ and ‘Kalypso’ to the core characters.

With multiple high-octane moments of explosions, automobile collisions, dragons, and the numerous Gods, the clip was action-packed to the root. The teaser’s focus is a peek at Hespera and Kalypso’s initial appearances. Both antagonists are descendants of the Greek Titan Atlas, one of the figures from Greek mythology who adds to the acronym Shazam and provides him strength, however, neither one is a figure from the Shazam! comics. The film featured monstrous beasts and harpies, as well as settings such as Athens and an adolescent love tale in between.

With Mirren and Liu’s costumes unveiled and the plot hinted at, the antagonists are the greatest revelation of the Shazam 2 film promo video. In addition, the teaser delves deeper into Ziegler’s character. Despite the fact that set photographs of Shazam 2 showed Zegler embracing Freddy Freeman, implying that she’ll be presented as his love interest in the sequel, her position in the tale has remained a mystery. Nevertheless, the teaser shows her standing behind Hespera when Mirren’s character leads Freddy to her.

Another brief image later in the footage reveals Zegler dressed in a golden Grecian costume that bears a strong resemblance to Hespera and Kalypso’s, albeit it’s a warmer gold, which could indicate that she will become or is compelled to be a newfound associate of the baddies. It’s unclear where she links in, although she seems to be linked to the baddies in a certain way.

Beyond the bad guys, there are Shazam’s new mythological species, such as harpies and dragons (one of which Darla is apparently on), as well as additional locations, which are teased in the Fury of the Gods concept artwork. The children are staying in Philadelphia, and they’ll see Athens, the Library of Eternity, and the “realm of the gods,” in addition to the Rock of Eternity. The concept design for the domain of the gods is particularly intriguing because it shows three figures dressed in costumes that appear to be similar to Hespera and Kalypso, while the footage of Mirren displayed her behind bars, suggesting that she and Liu’s characters were put in prison there but escaped or were liberated. 

Shazam 2 BTS Trailer Out

The movie’s name, Shazam! Fury of the Gods was revealed at DC FanDome 2020. Shazam! Fury of the Gods began filming in 2021, although the film will not be shown until June 2023. The cast has already brought some fantastic surprises to DC FanDome 2021.

Due to the COVID-19 epidemic, filming on the movie was postponed from its original start date of mid-2020. On May 26, 2021, principal photography began in Atlanta, Georgia. Sandberg stated in June that Fulton would be playing Mary’s grownup superhero incarnation in the movie, substituting Borth in the flick.

It was supposed to be released on April 1, 2022, but owing to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was pushed to November 4, 2022, and then to June 2023.
