Halo news just keeps getting worse. Remember how ages ago they said the script was "done". Latino review apparently said it rocked and they were going to move forward now? Haha… yeah. They’ve moved nowhere in almost a year.
And oh yeah… that script? The one was that "done". The one that was "finished"? You know… the one Alex Garland wrote. Well the other day I suggested that MAYBE the reason we haven’t heard anything about Halo in so long is because they don’t like the script and they’re trying to redo it. remember that?
A few people started ripping me a new one "You’re an idiot Campea, the reviews said the script rocked!". i got several emails like that. But all I said was MAYBE that’s one of the things holding it up. Yeah well guess what:
They got a new writer who is working on another script for Halo now.
To be fair, it’s not unusual at all for some films to ditch one script and to start developing another. Halo isn’t the first film to do it… and it won’t be the last. It’s better to take longer and get the right script than it is to rush it and use the wrong script.
So Halo has been in a total mess. Maybe this will be the start of them getting things back on track. But they still need to take the freaking helmet off of Master Chief for some of the movie.
