Halo S1-2

Based on one of the highest-grossing gaming franchises of all time and exec produced by triple-Oscar winner Steven Spielberg, Halo is set amid an epic 26th-century conflict between humanity and an alien threat known as the Covenant.

Emmy nominee Pablo Schreiber (American Gods, Orange is the New Black) stars as cybernetically enhanced super-soldier Master Chief John-117. In Season 2, John will risk everything to prove what no one else will believe – that the Covenant are preparing to attack humanity’s greatest stronghold. With the galaxy on the brink, John embarks on a journey to find the key to humankind’s salvation, or its extinction — the Halo.

People’s Choice winner Joseph Morgan (The Originals, Vampire Diaries) joins the cast this season, while Natascha McElhone (Californication) returns, having been nominated for a Women's Image Network Award for Best Actress in a Drama Series as Dr. Halsey.
