Paramount's H🍌alo TV show is losing 🌼its showrunner after just one season.

Steven Kane – who had planned to take🦂 on the mantel of co-showrunner with Kyle Killen before Killen left the project before it went into production – is reportedly leaving in order to 🅠return to the US for "personal reasons". For the last two years, Kane has resided in Budapest where the series is being produced.

(thanks, ), Kane – who was first attached to the project back in 2019 – is staying on to oversee the "post-production process", but will not be returning if the show picks up a second season.

Pablo Schreiber, who is set to play Master Chief in the series, has shown off the protagonist’s iconic helmet in a recent set photo. The production – which returned to filming after a brief hiatus owing to the COVID-19 pandemic – has 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:also shared a series of images from behind-the-scenes, includi๊ng enough firepower to take down a Covenant armada.

The video game adaptation has moved from its original home on Showtime to 🐻Paramount Plus. It’s set to launch sometime in Q1 2022 – meaning we’ll be watching the Amblin and 343 Industries-produced series before April 1, 2022.

ICYMI, Mass Effect project director Mac Walters recently offered us a little information about what happened to that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Mass Effect movie. It was initially announced by Legendary Pꦿictures in 2010 right at the height of the franchise's original trilogy but 🌱never came to be. 

In a🅺 new interview, Walters hinted that getting the story-rich universe of Mass Effect into one single film was a major stumbling block, stating: "It felt like we were always fighting the IP. What story are we going to tell in 90 to 120 minutes?" And despite the suggestion of adapting it instead for TV, Walte𓆉rs said, "it never picked up again after that," although it wasn't "for lack of trying".

As we said at the time, with the sudden resurgence of video game adaptions like 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Sonic the Hedgehog, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Mortal Kombat, and the upcoming 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Last of Us TV show and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Paramount's Halo show, Mass Effect seems like a prime candidate to m𓃲ake t💎he leap next. Here's hoping the project finally finds its footing in the future.

Here's our roundup of all the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming video game movies.
