It looks as though our dreams of a Halo movie have once again been crushed as IGN has received confirmation that the popular FPS would not be making it onto the silver screen after all. Director Neill Blomkamp explained the recent collapse of the Halo film:
"The film is entirely dead. In the configuration it was in. Whatever happens with that movie, assuming that movie gets made, will be a totally different configuration," Blomkamp informed Creativity-Online.com. "It's not so much me as the entire vessel sank. Basically, it was a combination of; there were two studios involved that weren't getting along in the process of making it, Universal and Fox. That kind of stuff happens, it's a fragile industry. So the film collapsed at the end of last year, and it's been dead, ever since then. I'll be curious to see what happens."
I suppose time will tell, but if the current sales figures of Halo 3 are any indication I'm sure the movies completion is in the best interest of any studio that wants to make it. Now they just need to "finish the fight". Yeah, I said it.
