20 Most Hotly Anticipated New TV Shows Of 2022
11. Halo
Halo fans have been thirsting for a live-action adaptation for years and years, and it's finally coming to fruition next year courtesy of producer Steven Spielberg.
With a stonking $200 million budget, Halo represents one of the biggest dice-rolls Hollywood has made on a video game adaptation to date, and will unsurprisingly unfold amid the backdrop of the Human-Covenant war depicted in the games.
The brilliant Pablo Schreiber will play Master Chief, while Jen Taylor will reprise her role from the games to voice AI companion Cortana, and the wider supporting cast includes Natascha McElhone, Charlie Murphy, and Bokeem Woodbine.
If the 10-episode series can live up to its lofty expectations, it might finally be the video game adaptation to unambiguously break the much-discussed "video game curse."
Halo will premiere on Paramount+ in early 2022.
