The first look at the upcoming Halo TV series' Master Chief has been revealed, courtesy of Entertainment Weekly. We're getting some serious The Mandalorian vibes here.

 

The image comes just before the trailer for the live-action Halo series is set to debut tonight during The Game Awards, and shows... well, Master Chief.

Pablo Schreiber is assuming the role of the Chief, who has previously starred in the likes of Orange Is the New Black and American Gods. Although Entertainment Weekly doesn't us much to go off, it's our first real taste of a clearly game-accurate version of the character. 

The series is set to come to Paramount+, and will be premiering later on this year. The cast is rounded off by The Truman Show's Natascha McElhone as Dr. Catherine Halsey - the creator of the Spartan soldiers.

There's a familiar face in the form of Halo's Jen Taylor reprising her voice role as AI entity, Cortana: "The most advanced AI in human history, and potentially the key to the survival of the human race". Finally, we're joined by Fargo's Bokeem Woodbine as Soren-066, Shabana Azmi, Bentley Kalu, Natasha Culzac, and Kate Kenedy.
