“Halo” movie might find new life from DreamWorks

When one thinks of the gaming landscape, it's difficult to imagine one without the Master Chief and his mega “Halo” franchise (rightfully) taking up space. With its continued and even increased popularity over the years, it came as no surprise when it was announced years back that a film adaptation of the series was to be made through a partnering of Universal and 20th Century Fox, with Peter Jackson slated to act as executive producer for the project. However, anyone who follows industry news in either the film or video game world knows that project was plagued with a number of issues, ultimately sending the adaptation straight for developmental hell, where it has remained for four years.
