HALO NIGHTFALL

Survival is a choice.

From executive producer Ridley Scott.

And here’s the official movie trailer:

HALO NIGHTFALLPlot:
“The film tells the personal story of Jameson Locke, a legendary manhunter and agent with the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI), Earth’s most powerful and secretive military branch. He and
his team are investigating terrorist “chatter” on the distant colony world of Sedra, when they are caught in a horrific biological attack. Led by Locke, ONI agents are forced to coordinate with Randall Aiken, a local commander with a remarkable history and deep-rooted mistrust of ONI. As they unravel a plot that draws
them to an ancient, hellish artifact, they will be forced to fight for their survival, question everything, and ultimately choose between their loyalties and their lives.”

Hard-core fans of the game will likely welcome the film. But it doesn’t look that good… Acting is sub-par to say the least… I doubt I’ll see it.

The film is directed by Sergio Mimica-Gezzan and starring starring Mike Colter, Steven Waddington, Christina Chong, Luke Neal, Alexander Bhat, Alexis Rodney, Christian Contreras, Eric Kofi Abrefa, Jennie Gruner, Sarah Armstrong, and Shaun Blaney.

The release date of Halo Nightfall is set to March 17, 2015 (direct to Blu-Ray).
