The much-anticipated game-to-TV adapted series 'Halo' is all set to premiere on March 24 and that would mean giving the game's ardents and new watchers some gripping sci-fi content. With Steven Spielberg as one of the Executive Producers, the Pablo Schreiber-starrer is based on an FPS game of the same name. It follows a 26th-century intergalactic war between the United Nations Space Command (UNSC) and the Covenant, an alliance of alien races looking to destroy humanity.

'Halo' stars Pablo Schrieber as Master Chief Petty Officer John-117, the leader of the genetically-enhanced Spartan supersoldier unit; Natascha McElhone as Dr. Halsey, the creator of the Spartan program; Jen Taylor as the AI Cortana; and Yerin Ha as Kwan, the daughter of a military leader on the planet Madrigal, where it all starts.
