Showtime's Halo adaptation has allegedly been delayed after the Rupert Wyatt stepped down as the director and executive producer of the series. Wyatt cited "changes to the production schedule of Halo" as his reason for leaving, and as is typical with such departures, he left the project on a positive note. The series has allegedly been in the works for almost four years, and production was "originally slated to begin in early 2019."
"Showtime's adaptation of Halo is evolving beautifully with rich characters, compelling stories and powerful scripts," said Gary Levine, President of Programming, Showtime Networks in a statement. "Obviously, the production demands of this series are enormous, and we have had to add time to the schedule in order to do it right. Sadly, this delay has created a conflict for Rupert, whom we warmly thank for all he has brought to the project."
