I’m writing the next Halo TV series. How do I approach it

Discussion

For the main story content: —Start the parallel journey of Chief and Thel in season 1. Their story takes up 40% of the show. —The next 30% follows some ODSTs. —The final 30% follows some key ONI leaders, including Johnson (obviously) and Lasky.

Seasons will be 20 episodes long, hour-long episodes.

For the structure of the story: —Season 1 is a similar concept to Forward Unto Dawn in terms of revealing the covenant and showing the start of the war. Introduce Spartans being deployed to quell rebellion and eventually to fight covenant, showing key battles. Follow Noble team throughout season. Half way through season, start Halo: Reach storyline, end season same way as game. —Season 2 is Halo 1, ending with Halo 1 ending. —Season 3 goes from start of Halo 2 to right before the intro of Gravemind. —Season 4 goes through end of Halo 2 and into Halo 3 up until they land on the Ark. As with all seasons, focus on ODST storylines as well. —Season 5 goes to the end of Halo 3.

Want to know what you guys think.
