This week has been a weird one. While Paramount's Halo show has already been renewed for a second season, I worry that Master Chief will remove his helmet to reveal he's actually The Rock. This is a fear I never thought I'd have to deal with, and now the TV series can't come soon enough.

This one is going to piss off the Halo hardcore fans. Halo TV show Executive Producer Kiki Wolfkill has revealed that we will see the man under the helmet at some point. "I think we set out to tell a character story and a personal story," Wolfkill said in an interview. "And once we really got into what that story was, it became clear that you really needed to see the person in the armor and under the helmet."
"You will see his face," she continued. "For some people, it’s been a moment 20 years in the making. And for other people, it’s something that feels very hard to imagine. But for the nature of this story, it felt really important to connect with the Master Chief in a different way and that meant showing the face."
The show has also been renewed for a second season even before season one premiers. Paramount made the announcement alongside a whole host of new projects coming soon to the platform. While we don't know when the next season will air or what story it will tell, we do know that it will be helmed by Brave New World director David Wiener.
What's more, fans in the UK won't have to resort to questionable means to watch Master Chief reveal his face. Paramount+ will finally be making its way to the UK along with all its shows, including Star Trek: Discovery and 1883. The announcement doesn't specify a date, but only says it's coming "this summer".
