Paramount+ cancels live-action 'Halo' series after two seasons

Paramount+ confirmed the cancellation, expressing pride, gratitude to the partners, cast and crew involved.

The live-action "Halo" series has met its end at Paramount+ after two seasons, despite its ambitious scope and global success. The streamer confirmed the cancellation, expressing pride in the series and gratitude to the partners and talented cast and crew involved.

The series, based on the beloved Xbox video game franchise, followed Master Chief John-117 and his fellow Spartans in their fight against the Covenant in the 26th century. It featured a star-studded cast, including Pablo Schreiber, Natascha McElhone, and Jen Taylor.

Despite the cancellation, Xbox, Amblin TV, and 343 Industries remain committed to the "Halo" universe and are actively seeking a new home for the series. They expressed deep appreciation for the fans who made the show a global hit and promised to continue exploring the franchise in different ways.

This marks the end of a long journey for the live-action adaptation, which was initially conceived as a movie in 2005. After years of development and changes, the series finally debuted in 2022, but it seems its time on Paramount+ has come to a close.
