The Halo TV show will be similar in "scope and scale" to Game of Thrones says 343 boss
Halo x Game of Thrones is the mash-up wꦺe never knew we wanted

If you didn’t already hold out high hopes for the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Halo TV show, you might just want to reconsider your position. That’s because it’s got some very lofty goals in its sight, not least attempting to match and mirror Game of Thrones, quite possibly the most popular TV show ever. With the financial might of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft at its back, this (hopefully) isn’t just 343 Industries wh🅺ispering sweet nothings to stoke the already-frenzied f✤ires of an expectant fan base.
Speaking t꧂o podcast (H/T ), 343 transmedia boss Kiki Wolfkill (yes, that is their real name and, yes, it is impossibly coolꦡ), was asked about what the Halo TV show could be compared to in the medium.
Their answer, though, might raise some eyebrows: “"It's hard to find an analog. We talk about Game of Thrones a lot in terms of scope and scale and complexity of relationships,” before expanding that “A lot of the background of Halo is this sort of political drama. It's something that [is mentioneﷺd] really lightly in the games… Some of that [Game of Thrones] complexity ꦿis interesting."
So, while we shouldn’t be expecting Red Weddings involving Sgt. Johnson, there is a lot we can at least hold out hope for. Epic battles, obviously, should be the first on the list. Imagine Master Chief – who we now know is 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:being played by Pablo Schreiber – we🎃aving through a gallery of Grunts and𝓀 Brutes as all hell rains down in the background. Goosebumps.
But it might be the political situation that has caught the attention of those who are entrenched in Halo lore. If you don’t know your Covenant from your Cortanas, you might not realise there is a deep, rich history of political and religious intrigue bubbling a🍸way in the background in the Halo universe. Setting up that framework for Master Chief’s story, including all the backstabs and betraꩲyals that come with it, could reap rewards in the long run, instead of the Halo TV show just gunning for merely being a one-dimensional video game adaptation.
Hilariously, Wolfkill says the Halo TV show won’t 🥂be matchi🐈ng HBO’s fantastic epic in all respects. Namely, there’s “no incest” and that “If you're looking for that, you won't find it here.”
So… yeah. Apart from that, the Halo TV s⛦how could be well on its way to filling the Game of Thrones-shaped hole in our heart (and telly boxes).
