Showtime Adapts $5B Video Game Franchise 'HALO' And It Could Be Its Biggest Hit

HBO has Game of Thrones and Westworld. Amazon Studios has Lord of the Rings. And, now Showtime has HALO, its new TV series based on the wildly popular video game franchise of the same name. With its built-in audience of avid gamers, this could potentially be Showtime's biggest hit yet. Just weeks after Microsoft's announcement at E3 of the latest installment of its popular HALO video game series, HALO: Infinite, Showtime announced it has ordered a 10-episode series of the award-winning and record-shattering video game.
