ALL NEW LIVE ACTION FEATURE BASED ON THE GLOBALLY RENOWNED HALO® FRANCHISE Halo: Nightfall released digitally
Content Media released the highly anticipated Halo: Nightfall, on VOD on 17 March 2015. Set between the events of Microsoft’s hit game Halo 4 and the eagerly anticipated Halo 5: Guardians, Halo: Nightfall is the second full-length live-action feature for the Halo® franchise.
From Executive Producer Ridley Scott (Prometheus, Blade Runner) and award-winning Director Sergio Mimica-Gezzan (Battlestar Galactica, The Pillars Of The Earth), Halo: Nightfall features an all-star cast including Mike Colter (The Good Wife), Christina Chong (24: Live Another Day), Steven Waddington (Sleepy Hollow) and Luke Neal (Final Prayer).
Halo: Nightfall tells the personal story of Jameson Locke, a legendary manhunter and agent with the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI), Earth’s most powerful and secretive military branch. The film provides the background to this pivotal new character in the Halo universe, who will play a key role in the next gaming installment.
Whilst investigating terrorist “chatter” on the distant colony world of Sedra, Locke and his crew are caught in a horrific biological attack. Led by Locke, ONI agents are forced to coordinate with the local command who have a deep-rooted mistrust of ONI. As they unravel a plot that draws them to an ancient, hellish artifact, they are forced to fight for their survival and to make the ultimate choice between their loyalty and their lives.
Halo: Nightfall will appeal to both long-time fans and newcomers to the Halo Universe and is available on VOD, to rent or buy, from March 17, 2015.
