The cogs are still turning on the Halo movie project. The good folks over at FilmForce are reporting that Halo the movie will begin shooting before May 2006 and has a target of mid 2007 as a release date.
I can’t see them sticking to that schedule. If they did indeed only start filming in May and aimed for say… an August 2007 release date… then that only gives them just over a year to film and do all the FX and post production work on it. A film like Halo which will undoubtedly be SERIOUSLY heavy on the Visual Effects is just going to need more time than that… if they’re going to do it right.
Unless they start shooting much earlier… I’m betting we’re going to see a Christmas 2007 release date at the earliest.
