Dude rocked the role for me
I’ve been a huge fan of Pablo since he first guest starred on Law and Order SVU
I think Pablo is great for Master Chief.
Ur wrong
I also think Pablo is great as Master Chief and the series does a great job exploring his humanity - because even in the game, it's a MAN under that armor, not a robot. Master Chief being mysterious and faceless in the games is appropriate due to the fact we, the players, become him. But for a live-action series? Audiences need to see some humanity - not live-action re-creations of the video game cutscenes. I can't wait for season 2.
This would also be far form the first show to have a faceless protagonist. And its one where that has been core to the character since the beginning. Dropping that seems like a lazy decision to me. Maybe its partially because I read some of the books, but he was never an empty shell to me.
Pablo is the man!
Good thing this show is not canon to the actual lore.
Agreed
Best part of the show.
Lets keep this as the red headed albino stepchild that never leaves his room.
He is doing an OK job ... for such a different aproach to HALO. Hope it will surprise us with something good along the line.
I feel the same way.👍
@@jonathananderson7990 are there any professional actors THAT big?? lol he's tall enough
@@jonathananderson7990they could just do the trick from Lord of the rings where they faked the hobbits being short.
Should make a gears of war series. That would be amazing if done right
And they can do it with helmet open
Bruh they shouldn’t even touch gears after cbs ruined halo show
Been hooked on Halo since I was 16 with HaloCE. Damn near middle aged now but glad Halo finally getting a live action show.
Not So Fun Facts
The writers HAVE NEVER EVEN PLAYED THE GAME
Master Chief is now a minor minor minor background character.
4ft 7 in 98lb tiny women will be kicking the 💩 out of 6ft 8 375lb men in hand to hand combat 🤣🤣🤣
@@bubandlisa I read that article. They don’t have to play the games to make a good show. Kevin Fiege wasn’t a Marvel comic book reader yet he made the best Marvel movies.
@@Adam-gy3tw
I’m sure people who never played the games will probably enjoy the show. I however played all of the games growing up. I got halfway through the first episode and shut it off. All the changes and other things are just bothering me too much to the point where I can’t enjoy it.
@@lokiprepper i played all the games and i can tell you never actually played them cause i like the show
@@halomo81
eYe caN tELl eW nEveR aKtUaLY pLayEd dEm!
Lol, ok kid.
He’ll always be Nick Sobotka to me.
I might be the only fan here that’s actually seen the actor (Pablo Schreiber) buck naked. He was doing a play, in Chicago, back in 2009 with the late Brian Dennehy and Carla Gugino. Good play and terrific performances but wasn’t expecting him to come out completely nude at one point. Pretty sure all the women in the audience weren’t complaining though. Haha. Anyway, I can personally attest that Pablo has some serious acting chops & I’m glad that he’s finally getting a lead role which is long overdue. I also hope this series does well.
It did not do well lol it even suprised people with low expectations
Nice how they got the helmet hud design in the show.
It makes the shield noise
Right, because that's a big accomplishment.
@@joelkunze4769 That too.
@@jacobcooper269 One of them yes next to the shield recharge noise too.
6:09 he wasn't able to ask his question :(
Noticed that too
Not a fan of the face reveal so soon, but I'm willing to give him a chance. He seems enthusiastic about the role. Playing Master Chief is an honor comparable to the actors who play superheroes.
Face reveal was no big deal he can't be master chief all the time
@@leejones3061 do you even know what Halo is?
@@medicusofthedamned I'm pretty sure these people are paid to write good reviews. Anyone with a brain knows this show is a mediocre garbage. There is literally nothing "good" in the show. He should NEVER show his face. John IS the armor!
@@That_1_Bohemian I’d argue John in the games is Steve downes and idk when this comment was but the last episode was good
MasterChief is your role Pablo, well done.
The girl talking opening her mouth literally knows nothing about master chief and her questions shows it
"Now investigating the interior of a nearby cave" No way Noble Six is gonna be introduced in the show too??
It's not that deep
I’m ready. Let’s go.
I don’t care what they do outside canon. Acting was good, the Dr was amazing, seeing Cortana being created and MasterChief in action, I’m just glad to have that feeling (of excitement) I had when the Spartans first landed. Same feeling I had when Drago in GOT first flew into battle..
Streaming This Thursday
Already Renewed for Season 2
So can’t wait for tonite!! Been looking forward to this forever
what an excellent actor in an exceptional show!
Need to interview and review all sci-fi space shows that glimpse our potential future
"a new direction"
I'm here for it.
All I can ever see is William Lewis 😂
wow, screiber got his career settled.
So much criticism over this new adaptation of the Halo series. You guys are doing a great job. Truly enjoy it…and I am a “true fan”
No they are not and no you are not.
Nobody could've been Master Chief but him.Kinda like how RDJ will always be Ironman❤
I personally loved it give or take some wierd moments lol. Cant wait for S2.
Played first game but need new pc to play the rest later anytime.
I really hope master chief is still in there 💪💪💪
6 Billion dollar game and yet they make the show for a larger audience... Makes no sense
Okay, is it JUST me or do I see him as a potential Wolverine cast?
I see it now.. he’d be a great fit
Just thank you for bringing us to life the game we grew up up with 🙏
"if they go after chief they are not friendly" 🔥🔥🔥
Essa é a série do século, top de mais e esse personagem e da hora
Just finished watching EP 9, what a great show and Pablo did a great job as Chief, looking forward to season two!
Any idea when it will be released???
@@Walker22451Feb 2024
Yes sir I can't wait to see it let's go Halo👍
I like what they’re doing with the look into the helmet, feels halo-y enough
That show could literally run for ever
he is brother from (more famous) Liev Schreiber and maybe he help him for getting more importing roles as this one
after Geralt Rivia with Witcher success I think now everyone start looking for other game with iconic character to make series. well, Master Chief of Halo is the next best thing
Why you keep the helmet off?!
Pablo makes me proud as his fan and halo fan.He did excellent ❤
I want too see the Master Chief drop the gloves with Ross ‘the boss’ Rhea.
He lowkey could play Big Mike in the Fifth Vital movie
This guy does an amazing job as John 117...plus the fact he's 6 5....they needed someone tell enough to tower over people to make it feel authentic
The guy from Forward Unto Dawn was like 6’10.
@@MediQate well they didn't hire him did they?
Unfortunately he wasn’t given writers who understood what his character was.
I am so glad it's not canon. Like the actor but not his voice. Sounds like a more tame Mando.
Pablo Schreiber should play Marcus Fenix lol
👏👏👏👏👏
“Master Chief 117.”
😂
Mandalorian.
I’ve been a massive fan of Pablo, Secret Soldiers of Benghazi was incredible and he was great in Orange is the new Black. Glad he’s tackling Master Chief, going to be a wild ride!
Masculine roles, dad vibes, bravery, courage, 6,5 ft, Pablo's perfect for that Role
Except the writing did everything they could have possibly gotten wrong.
Let me start by saying I LOVE Pablo as an actor. His roles in American Gods and Den of Thieves was above the bar for me. Now, with that said I really dislike they used him for this role being as he didn't grow up immersed in the lore and in love with the story of Masterchief and Cortana. Find an actor who LOVES Halo and you may find an individual who will break the mold and provide the kind of performance that could justify revealing the face of the heroic and loved spartan. Like Tom Hiddleston to Loki, Christian Bale to Batman, Ryan Reynolds to Deadpool, RDJ as Ironman etc... I might get a month of Paramount to see the show but from what I've seen so far it's not looking too stellar.
How tall is this guy?!!!
6'5". Master Chief in the books/games is 6'8", so pretty accurate.
This show sucks and I’m a huge halo fan. and copyright striking reviewers for not liking it bahaah pathetic.
He sounds good as chief, I think it’ll work once ppl get used to it
Love it so far. This guy seems great!
FIRST PERSON VIEW WITH NADES AND A BATTLE RIFLE! 🤯🤯🤯
I believe that is a DMR from HALO Reach
@@jackcraig1776 damn shoulda been a BR lol
@@Adam-gy3tw agreed
No madam🤣 they took the helmet to soon to us (for good reasons) "HALO players" 🤣 we had to wait for the show to finely see it 🤣
awesome job, thank you for being a great Master Chief. well spoken, good looking, talented actor.
pfft good joke
He makes a great Master Cheeks, but Master Chief, don't make me laugh. When a character cries more than I do (an emotional girl) you know the character is weak sauce.
@@blueskies1854 cringe
I think he's perfect for this ,I saw the first series and it matches perfectly gestures, attitude
Jeez. Get this guy some socks.
Master Chief is a Sailor Duh!!!
✨💚🌏💚✨
OMGODDESS
HEE IS HUUGE!!!!
🙆
Never played Halo played ps since day 1 in the 90s watched Halo I love it so been finding out about the Franchise history
Enjoy
So basically u know nothing about Halo… This series is totally out of lore and stupid af.
Writers of the show even admitted they never played them games.
Since The Early 00s
@@MrBlueBot5 eh playstaion was 90s
I think he's a good Master Chief. In fact, almost everything about the show is pretty good. Aside from some desert girl that is.
Not gonna lie that looks really cool. I know Halo boomers are gonna trash it cause nobody hates Halo more than Halo fans, but I hope it keeps going as time goes by the show will get better season to season. Just give it a chance.
I'm one of the halo boomer and I'm looking forward to judge this show on it's own merit.
@@sierrachief117 but he is right thos
aaaaand it's getting decimated by prominent reviewers. Good luck caring when the advertising companies stop paying you people to plug it.
@@jacobcooper269 You should join man, getting paid by Microsoft 1k a week is an amazing gig. It's like free money
How do yu get ms to pay you money
There are so many things wrong with this interview.
People who moan at the helmet reveal just dont get that this interview could never have gappemed without the helmet reveal. They expect him to never do interviews and promote the show and himself? 😂 ridiculous to think you can have a show without showing the main characters face.
Pedro Pascal has done PLENTY while playing the Mandalorian. Keeping a helmet on for the show doesn't mean he can't take it off and promote it outside of filming.
The Halo Universe and Lore, is the Greatest in the History of Gaming!
Well i have to admit I enjoyed Batman and Robin with George Clooney more than this show. It definitely isnt Halo, i dont know who it is made for because it isnt Halo fans.
Maybe one day we will get a HALF LIFE (Gordon Freeman) and a MASS EFFECT (commander Shepard - male version) Big Budget TV series. P.S. If they make the ME trilogy tv show .. MALE SHPARD is suited most ... if they make the ANDROMEDA storyline RYDER should be female obviously just like Sarah Ryder the 1st woman astronaut in space and an explorer like LARA CROFT of strange new worlds being that ANDROMEDA is totally "uncharted" + the role fitted better for Ryder and the voice actress was better than the male actor.
Is it me or was Gail low key flirting with Pablo?
Halo is a great show. Thanks, Pablo and other cast friends.
It's a terrible show. Such a travesty.
Does she know nothing about Master Chief?? Really? "We don't see much emotion..." Because you shouldn't if the story is remotely close to canon
My condolences. He's going to be utterly hated by the fans. The show runners don't care about halo and they're proud of their ignorance.
great comment haha
Spartans are not Mandalorians if the helmet comes off you are not terminated from your colony. As a long term fan I have no issue with the helmet as long as it fits the story and he has a good reason to do so. In the first episode it definitely makes sense for him to take his helmet off. So far i like the first two episodes.
How often did he taken it off in the source material?
@@GSthe3rd afaik only in the ending of Halo 4, but his face wasn't shown. He has taken of his helmet in a few occasions in the books, though none of them where during a fight.
To be clear I'm not complaining about him taking off his helmet at the tv series (and I even agree that is kinda necessary to the format).
Here’s the problem. John has been Faceless for over 20 years, and this show did it episode 1, and John is so out of synch with his canon counterpart I’m curious why they made this guy John in the first place.
I'll guess this has more dislikes than likes.
The only way this show was ever going to be successful is if you based it…. Wait for it….. on the video games. That was your biggest chunk of audience by far and you failed to notice that. Dead show for sure already
Saw the fist episode it was 50/50 video and tv show . Very good . We shall see . Only Nick Sobotka can be master chief
Seen episodes 1 and 2, you're wrong. Long time Halo fan loving the show so far. Lots of nods to the novel lore.
It's all nice.... but some of us have to get back to real life. I watched the series, was good... but too much attention and $ spend on Hollywood and unreal things to keep us entertained and looking -the other way. iykyk
Not So Fun Facts

The fuxk
Have you watched it the entire shoe is about master chief it's all about him and the experiment Oni does
And it's following the books
not so fun facts you’ve never got into the lore of Halo so yea to you it sucks…….lets not forget Kevin Feige also never read a Marvel Comic in his life look how that turned out……GENIUS
The Series CGI is broken,The helmet reveal is a no-no,the acting is really sub-sub-sub par thanks to bad writing irregardless of amazing actors.the drama is not needed,they slander the fanbase and didn't do any research in lore or books and games.so bringing in this "canon" is worthless fodder and halo community is appalled.humanized master chief is bad,human leading the covenant???(WTF were they thinking!) so with no factual background in the already massive franchise and its fanbase the series sucks to be honest.most gamers are giving it a 3/10 to 1/10.
ewwwwww Jimmy Rings
What a joke it’s going to be a woke sjw dumpster fire. Boycott Halo
Settle down junior..
not going to boycott 😏
haha right wingers with their political bs
It’s pretty good 👍 no woke yet . Pablo is working out 8x a day to be master chief
Halo sucks so much- waste of time
It sucks xD
This show hates the Halo Universe and wears it like a zombie in a cheap suit.
Looks cheap. It's not halo.
Horrible master chief. Embarrassing
He has done such a bad job playing as master chief that im actually rooting for the covenant
Cringe & Pablo is great as Chief.
terrible show!!!
Trash 🗑
The show is REALLY good, but there are a lot of salty Halo lore fans that are mad because they didn't follow the source material close enough or were expecting a 1 to 1 recreation the Halo game series retelling.
Naw I was expecting like 75% in line with canon. Which went out the window REAL quick when a Spartan II starts having sex, becoming obsessed with 'feelings' and losing his temper, the covenant having a human leader, and the key event of the Fall of Reach, but this time John is there and not even having his armor?? (Read the Fall of Reach, the very first book there was) and Keyes being race-swapped and dying before even seeing a Halo. I dunno... I don't think fans are nitpicking for 1-to-1 recreation with all that core story being diarheea'd away for a 'broader audience' or whatever.
