The teaser for the upcoming trailer for the Halo TV series offers the best look yet at the full costume design for the live-action Master Chief. The series is adapted from the ever-popular XBOX game franchise of the same name, which first came to the market in 2001. It is set in the 26th century and centers on a group of soldiers, including the super-soldier Master Chief, who are engaged in combat with an alien menace known as the Covenant.
The helmeted Master Chief will be brought to live-action for the very first time in the series, played by Orange is the New Black's Pablo Schreiber.

The Paramount+ show is expected in 2022, though there is no release date confirmed just yet.
