Rumors of a Halo movie have been heard for a while, but now it has been officially confirmed by [[Bungie]]. The movie will be handled by 20th Century Fox and Universal Pictures, Universal handling movie production [http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117927889?categoryid=1238&cs=1&s=h&p=0].

Rumors of a '''''Halo'' Movie''' have been circulating since the release of the first game, but in [[2004]], it was officially confirmed by [[Bungie]]. While the movie was intended to be handled by 20th Century Fox and Universal Pictures, both pulled out of the deal for unknown reasons in October of 2006 - postponing the Halo move indefinitely until new distributors could be found.
The movie would have been a live-action movie, but with a heavy amount of CGI. Wingnut Films, the team behind ''Lord of the Rings'' and ''King Kong'', was also working on the movie. Before it was delayed, it was revealed that the film would have been shot in Wellington, New Zealand, and was slated for a summer 2009 release.<ref>[http://comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=15944 '''Coming Soon.net''': ''Halo Director Announced!'']</ref> To keep the producers true to the ''Halo'' Universe, Bungie prepared an exhaustive encyclopedia known to some as either the "Halo Compendium" or the [[Halo Story Bible]]. This describes nearly every topic in the ''Halo'' games and novels including graphics of characters, species and vessels. The ''Halo 3'' promotional ''Landfall'' series has been considered a test of viewer interest in a possible ''Halo'' movie.<ref name="Part1">[http://www.bungie.net/News/TopStory.aspx?story=greathollywoodjourney1&p=4542384 '''Bungie.net''': ''The Great (Hollywood) Journey, Part One'']</ref> The Internet Movie Database currently lists a new attempt at a Halo movie, with a projected release date of 2012. <ref>http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0464037</ref>

[[Joseph Staten]] has guaranteed that there will be [[Grunts]].danm right there will be!!!!!!!!

[[Peter Jackson]], a ''Halo'' fan, was confirmed as executive producer for the film.<ref>http://youtube.com/watch?v=KlwmSfiaTJ4</ref> While it was assumed that he would also direct, the announcement of [[Neill Blomkamp]] as director proved that speculation as false. Jackson said he was tired after spending so much time on ''King Kong'', and that ''Halo'' would have been a break. Blomkamp is an acclaimed director of short films and commercials. He has also won Clios and a Visual Effects Society Award, and was nominated for an Emmy Award for his work on James Cameron's TV series ''Dark Angel''. And recently he made a District 9 feature film.
A website called Latino Review has posted a [http://latinoreview.com/scriptreviews/halo/review.html script review] of the upcoming Halo movie.


In August 2009 Neill Blomkamp stated the budget for the movie was around $120 million.<ref>http://movieblog.ugo.com/movies/district-9-neill-blomkamp-interview</ref>

===Script===
[[Category:Live Action]]
[[File:Halo Script.jpg|thumb|right|A piece of the alleged script.]]
{{quote|Where the Master Chief doesn't have a face...That's hard to carry as a main character for an entire film. But you can certainly surround him with people who don't have helmets on and you can see their faces.|Joseph Staten}}
A website called ''LatinoReview.com'' has posted a [http://www.latinoreview.com/script-reviews/halo-1 script review] of the upcoming ''Halo'' movie; [http://rampancy.net/blog/narcogen/01122005/halo_film_script_a_convincing_adaptation Rampancy.net] asserts that it's credible; however, Bungie has said the story is not complete.
 
Joseph Staten has said before that what would have been the "final" script for the film, would have had the Master Chief as a secondary character, taking a back seat to others for story telling purposes.<ref>[http://www.blog.newsweek.com/blogs/levelup/archive/2008/01/15/exclusive-bungie-gives-level-up-insight-into-the-stalled-halo-movie.aspx Staten interview.]</ref>
 
In this version of the script, Captain Keyes is mentioned. This is probably Jacob Keyes and  not his daughter, Miranda Keyes. Cortana hints him as Sir, not Ma'am. Evidence in these lines share a striking resemblance to the opening cinematic of the first game. If you remember Jacob Keyes dying later in Halo CE; whether this might be in the script or not, it could be centered around the events of the first Halo, and multiple Halo action films. These could feature Brutes, Brute weaponry and the Master Chief jumping from the Dreadnought.
 
Also, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra writer Stuart Beattie wrote a spec script during the [[wikipedia:2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike|2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike]]. The script is an adaptation of Eric Nylund's novel ''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''. He commented that ''The Fall of Reach'' would be the best choice for a movie adaptation:<ref>http://www.reelzchannel.com/movie-news/3917/a-halo-script-is-out-there-and-ready-to-be-made</ref> <!-- reword that sentence please -->
 
{{BigQuote|"I firmly believe that the first Halo movie needs to be the Fall of Reach story, because it sets up all the characters, the world, the Covenant, the big struggle between mankind and the aliens, all that stuff. I just think it's an amazing story about this child that no one cares about and who cares for no one else, who kind of ends up saving all of humanity."}}
 
===Timeline===
<!--NOTE:  Some sources may no longer exist due to the ages of these reported events.-->
 
*'''Summer of 2002''' With the success of ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', Hollywood producers voice interest about making a ''Halo'' movie. Concerns over creative control sunk the idea, "thanks but no thanks" said Joseph Staten.<ref name="Part1"/>
*'''2004 before ''[[Halo 2]]'' launch''' A Hollywood player, Peter Schlessel starts to meet with Bungie staff to discuss movie plans. He proposes that instead of leaving it up to Hollywood, "''Finance the script yourselves, Hire a writer, have him write something you love, then bring it to Hollywood with a simple message: This is the movie we want to make. Who wants to make it with us?''". On the list of Schlessel approved writers is Alex Garland, who Bungie pick for reasons listed in above article.
*'''February 3, 2005''' Creative Artists Agency confirmed that Microsoft had completed a million-dollar deal with Alex Garland to write a screenplay based on the video game series ''Halo'', which would then be offered to studios.<ref>[http://www.variety.com/index.asp?layout=story&articleID=VR1117917399&cs=1&p=0&s=h '''Variety.com''': ''Halo, Hollywood'']</ref>
*'''June 7, 2005''' Microsoft released Garland's completed screenplay to various Hollywood studios on June 7, 2005, looking to be paid a $10 million fee as well as the studio's agreement to adhere to guidelines set by the game's developers<ref>[http://filmforce.ign.com/articles/622/622951p1.html '''IGN''': ''Halo Movie Script Delivered'']</ref>. Microsoft also wanted the studio to seek approval over the director and cast. In addition, Microsoft sought full merchandising rights for itself, a minimum $75 million budget, and company representatives' full access to the film's rough cuts in Los Angeles. Studios like Paramount, DreamWorks, Sony, and Warner Bros. did not want to cede creative rights to the film and passed over the project.<ref>[http://www.eonline.com/news/article/index.jsp?uuid=9de0f087-25f9-4103-9eef-1b79b3c7ab08 '''E! Online''': ''Hollywood's Halo Effect'']</ref>
*'''June 2005''' 20th Century Fox and Universal Studios entered negotiations with Microsoft to divide the distribution rights of ''Halo''. The original $10 million deal was reduced based on the studios' negative response to the exorbitant price tag. In the negotiations, Universal gained rights to release the film in North America, where Fox would distribute the film overseas. On August 22, 2005, Microsoft's deal with the studios was announced to be finalized, with summer 2008 as the target release date.<ref>[http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117927889?categoryid=1238&cs=1&s=h&p=0 '''Variety''': ''Halo makes a date'']</ref>

*'''July 13, 2006''' Author D.B. Weiss revealed in an interview that he was writing the screenplay for ''Halo''. At the time of the interview, Weiss said that he was working on his second draft of the new script, which contained elements of the project's original screenplay by Alex Garland.<ref>[http://www.gamesetwatch.com/2006/07/gamesetinterview_db_weiss.php '''GameSetWatch''': ''GameSetInterview: Halo Screenwriter DB Weiss'']</ref>
*'''August 2006''' Neill Blomkamp is picked by Jackson as the director of the ''Halo'' movie.

{{BigQuote|''Universal, on behalf of both studios, asked for a meeting with the filmmakers just prior to the due date of a significant payment. Basically, they said that in order to move forward with the film, the filmmakers had to significantly reduce [the percentage of profits they would receive from the film]. They waited until the last minute to have this conversation. Peter and Fran, after speaking with their producing partners and with Microsoft and Bungie, respectfully declined.''}}
The source article also stated that work is apparently continuing on the film (which will be directed by Neill Blomkamp) and that Microsoft is already in talks with other distributors.
*'''October 31, 2006''' Producers Peter Jackson and Fran Walsh, along with Microsoft, are putting the much-anticipated ''Halo'' movie into production hell, or where a film has stopped in the production stage. Following recent reports that development of the film would continue in spite of studio backers Fox and Universal dropping out, a press release being distributed by Jackson's WingNut Films today confirms that ''Halo'' is being indefinitely postponed. Here's their statement regarding the film, sure to be greeted with howls of discontent by fans:
 
{{BigQuote|"As was previously confirmed, we deeply regret that both Universal and Fox did not choose to move forward with financing the Halo film under the original terms of the agreement. At this time Peter Jackson and Fran Walsh, along with their partner, Microsoft, have mutually agreed to postpone making a feature film based on the Halo video game universe until we can fulfill the promise we made to millions of Halo fans throughout the world that we would settle for no less than bringing a first class film to the big screen. We are fully supportive of Director Neill Blomkamp's vision of the film. Neill is a tremendously gifted filmmaker and his preliminary work on Halo is truly awe-inspiring. While it will undoubtedly take a little longer for Halo to reach the big screen, we are confident that the final feature film will be well worth the wait."}}
 
*'''May 21, 2007''' In an interview with Cinematical.com, Peter Jackson stated that he expected the project to continue soon, once the movie studios "catch a glimpse of the ''Halo'' hype first-hand" (with the release of ''[[Halo 3]]'').<ref>Erik Davis (2007-05-26).

*'''October 29, 2007''' Ken Kamins, Peter Jackson's representative, has confirmed in an interview that the ''Halo'' film is still in pre-production phase. "What happened was this: Universal, on behalf of both studios, asked for a meeting with the filmmakers just prior to the due date of a significant payment," says Kamins. "Basically, they said that in order to move forward with the film, the filmmakers had to significantly reduce their deals. They waited until the last minute to have this conversation. Peter and Fran, after speaking with their producing partners and with Microsoft and Bungie, respectfully declined." According to Kamins would-be director Blomkamp has not been dropped either, in spite of his earlier statements<ref>http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=174687</ref>:

*'''April 1, 2008''' G.I.

*'''July 21, 2008''' Microsoft Game Studios Phil Spencer and vice president of Strategy and Business Development Shane Kim say in a video interview that they are still in discussions with various potential partners and that there continues to be tremendous interest.

But, when you work that long on something and you have it bottom out and collapse... I mean, I got District 9 out of it, I think I'm probably better off because it's more of a personal film. But yeah, I love the world of Halo. (But) I don't think I would go back there."}}
 
Peter Jackson also revealed that it was "studio politics" that brought down the ''Halo'' movie and not due to the fact that Neill was a new director or the budget cost of the film<ref>http://www.dailymail.com/ap/ApEntertainment/200907240770</ref>. As for ''[[Halo: Chronicles]]'', he says that it was scrapped when the movie collapsed as well.<ref>http://www.joystiq.com/2009/07/24/peter-jackson-halo-chronicles-no-longer-happening/</ref>

{{BigQuote|"We don't control 'Halo,' we were simply just involved at that time to make the movie.  The rights were with Universal and Fox, but now they reverted back to Microsoft, who developed the game.  And I think Microsoft wants to figure out what to do with 'Halo.' It was a distressing experience for us when the film fell over and it was distressing for Microsoft, because they wanted to see a film made. The studio politics was the reason why it fell over. They had a bad experience as well. They are just trying to figure out what their relationship with Hollywood is. If any company can make a film independently without the need of a Hollywood studio, it would be Microsoft. Maybe that's what they will choose to do and maybe they'll come back to us to talk to us. I'm not sure."}}
 
*'''July 30, 2009''' Microsoft claims that Peter Jackson's ''Halo'' projects are not, in fact, dead. "Microsoft Game Studios is deeply committed to supporting and strategically growing the Halo franchise, and our relationship with Peter and his team is something that we greatly value. Given the bandwidth of both of our companies we've decided to put this joint effort on hold and prioritize resources against other projects like ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'', ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' and ''[[Halo Legends]]''".<ref>http://www.incgamers.com/News/17692/peter-jacksons-halo-projects-not-dead</ref>
*'''August 3, 2009''' Stuart Beattie elaborates on his Halo effort in an interview:
 
{{BigQuote|“I’ve been relentlessly at it for the last year and a half now, trying to convince Microsoft to make it, and trying to find a big filmmaker who wants to make it with us. I have a lot of hope for the Halo film, it’s not dead in my book. I won’t let it die.  It’s too good to let go, I mean it’s our generation’s Star Wars. The whole thing is so cinematic, I just think it’s dying to be done.” Anything I can do to be a part of it, to help get it going, I’ll do it.”}}
 
*'''August 7, 2009''' [http://www.iesb.net/ IESB] reports that Steven Spielberg (who is a closet gamer) was greatly impressed with Stuart Beattie's take on ''Halo'' and is planning to sign on as the producer. The article also states that he is in active negotiations with Microsoft to acquire the film rights for DreamWorks, as they are looking for a big tent pole to help launch their newly independent studio(with distribution over at Walt Disney Pictures) after losing ''[[wikipedia:Transformers (film)|Transformers]]'' to Paramount.<ref>http://www.iesb.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=7261:iesb-exclusive-master-chief-and-halo-may-be-coming-to-the-big-screen-sooner-than-expected-with-a-new-big-name-producer&catid=43:exclusive-features&Itemid=73</ref>
*'''August 11, 2009''' A Microsoft spokesperson responds on the Spielberg rumors saying that they're "glad that there's still a lot of enthusiasm in the entertainment industry surrounding the idea of a Halo movie."

*'''September 4, 2010''' O'Connor says that any Halo film would likely serve as a standalone story and not be "a verbatim retelling of the game".  It is reported that they are still developing scripts by Alex Garland with Stuart Beattie, D.B.
