The trailer depicts several characters from the show, including Natasha McElhone as Dr. Catherine Halsey, creator of the Spartan-II programme; Yerin Ha as newcomer Quan Ah, Kate Kennedy as Spartan warrior Kai-125 (she is shown in and out of armour), Bokeem Woodbine as Spartan trainee Soren-066, Bentley Kalu as Spartan Vannak-134, Olive Grey as Commander Miranda Keyes, Natasha Culzac as Riz-028 and Casper Knopf as the young John-117, better known as Master Chief. The adult Master Chief will be played by Pablo Schreiber.
The teaser also hints at locations from the games, including the Covenant holy city/space station known as High Charity; the space settlement known as the Rubble (which previously appeared in the Halo novel The Cole Protocol); and futuristic cities and alien dig sites, possibly on Earth or the colony world of Reach, or another world altogether.
The Halo television series will reportedly take place within the video game and spin-off continuity (despite some scepticism about that), and appears to be primarily set before the events of Halo: Reach, during the Human-Covenant War. It is unclear if the story will be completely self-contained or will segue into an adaptation of the Halo video games (which chronologically start with Reach before moving into the original Halo: Combat Evolved), but I assume in a TV show called Halo, at some point they will show the actual titular Halos themselves.
Halo is set to debut on Paramount+ in the United States in early 2022.
