Halo Season 2 Starts Filming, New Cast Members Announced

Season 2 of Halo is now in production. After the first season of the video game adaptation premiered on Paramount+ in March, it was met with instant success, drawing very high viewership to set the record with the most-watched series premiere in the streaming platform’s history. Overall, season 1 was the second-most watched original series on Paramount+, behind only the smash hit western series 1883.

Paramount+ execs had been anticipating a good result, as Halo had already been renewed for season 2 ahead of the first season’s premiere. On Wednesday, the show’s official Twitter page posted an image of the cast on set in Iceland for their first day of filming on season 2. You can see the post below.

The series also stars Natascha McElhone, Jen Taylor, Bokeem Woodbine, Shabana Azmi, Natasha Culzac, Olive Gray, Yerin Ha, Bentley Kalu, Kate Kennedy, Charlie Murphy, and Danny Sapani. Tylan Bailey and Fiona O’Shaungessy are moving up to series regulars after recurring in season 1.
