From The Last of Us and Fallout to The Super Mario Bros. Movie and more, we’ve seen more than a few examples of film and TV adaptations of games being done right and seeing critical and commercial success to match, though not every IP is in that position. The live-action Halo series running on Paramount+ has been roundly criticized by most who have viewed it over the course of its two seasons, and it seems the platform is no longer willing to continue investing in it.
Deadline reports that the Halo TV series has been cancelled by Paramount+ after two seasons. Reportedly, producers Amblin Entertainment, Xbox, and 343 Industries are attempting to find other partner platforms where the series could continue, but as things stand right now, there isn’t going to be a third Halo season.
“We are extremely proud of this ambitious series and would like to thank our partners at Xbox, 343 Industries and Amblin Television, along with showrunner and executive producer David Wiener, his fellow executive producers, the entire cast led by Pablo Schreiber as Master Chief and the amazing crew for all their outstanding work. We wish everyone the best going forward,” a spokesperson for Paramount+ said.
“We deeply appreciate the millions of fans who propelled the Halo series to be a global success and we remain committed to broadening the Halo universe in different ways in the future. We are grateful to Amblin and Paramount for their partnership in bringing our expansive sci-fi universe to viewers around the world,” a 343 Industries spokesperson added.
Meanwhile, Fallout, another major gaming property owned by Microsoft, is enjoying far greater success with its adaptation, with the Amazon Fallout series not only going ahead with its second season, but also having received widespread critical acclaim and award nominations, while also attracting large numbers of viewers.
