The live-action Halo series premieres on March 24. Of course, as it is an original Paramount+ series, we can only find it within said service.
In addition to Pablo Schreiber as the Master Chief, we will also see Natascha McElhone in the role of Dr. Halsey; a brilliant and conflicted creator of Spartan super soldiers. In turn, Jen Taylor will give life to the famous Cortana, an Artificial Intelligence being that will support John-117 during his adventures through the universe.
The first episodes of Halo already have critics

The story isn't the most inventive of all science fiction, which is where it struggles to find its footing. Although the first action scene is a good introduction, the series begins to slow down and Halo becomes a series of characters delivering some very stilted lines that are almost overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information they contain.

However, the medium applauds the performances of the Halo cast. They assure that, even in those moments where the story feels a bit weak, "it is through the performances of the actors that things stay afloat".
Of course, you will have to wait until March 24 to be able to draw your own conclusions about the series. The first episode of Halo will be published on the agreed date; and will have a weekly premiere for eight more weeks, thus adding a total of 8 episodes in its first season. Likewise, those in charge of the series have already confirmed that it has been renewed for a second season even before the first season premiered.
