Master Chief is gunning for the bigscreen in summer '07. Fox and Universal have closed their deal to make a movie based on Microsoft's hit vidgame "Halo," with plans for a tentpole in two years. Studios will pay the tech giant $5 million against 10% of the gross....

Edit:

IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0464037/ (so it's been confirmed, that means it really is coming out 2007....... hopefully)

I wish they'd get a good director....like James Cameron.

Or Ridley Scott....(wasn't that the rumour anyway?)

This movie better be good or ill be pissed lol.

same here, one the things I immediately noticed is that it's targeted to have an R rating, thank god for that. I don't want this masterpiece turning out to be another AvP . Atleast with an R rating in mind, the creators won't have too much of a restriction...but at the end of the day, it's all about profits so who knows? Fox can really fuck us over (i'm hoping to god they don't).

From the first game there's only 3 species plus The Flood.

No, I very much doubt it. They'll probably just hire some one to play out MC in his suit, and do the voiceover using the same guy that actually does MC in the games.

i wanna see thier suit version. i've seen fanmade suits and they looked decent, i cant wait to see what the actual designers will help make in real life. 2007 is a ways off tho, oh well. hopefully it lives up to the game, which are pretty big shoes in itself.
