From Cinematical, “Messengers dressed as Master Chief descended on various studios yesterday, to deliver Alex Garland’s script for the Halo movie.”
“Microsoft is looking for $10 million for the script, plus an agreeement from the winning studio to adhere to biblical tenants set out by game developers. Maybe unsurprisingly, no studio has yet bit.”

Fox and Universal just picked up on the script in a joint deal. MS has settled to just take 5 mill, and supposedly Pidley Scott will direct, Samuel L. Jackson will play Sgt. Johnson, and Ed Harris will play Capt. Keyes. This is all supposed, but so far this looks like a pretty good film shaping up. Not surprisingly the film studios will have to work closely with Bungie and follow a sort of “Bible” to ensure that the core game plot is followed. Im pretty impresed so far
