Pablo Schreiber stars as Master Chief Petty Officer John-117, while Jen Taylor, who voices Cortana in the Halo video games, reprises her role for the TV series. In an interview with Game Spot in March 2022, Schreiber revealed that he had never played Halo before he was cast in the show. “I was familiar with it but more from a peripheral standpoint,” he said. “I didn’t grow up with TV or with video games, so my only access to video games was as a teenager I would go to friend’s houses and play after school. I played Halo a few times but had never played the campaign or the story version. I only played [multiplayer].”
Once he was cast as Master Chief, Schreiber underwent a “boot camp” to learn more about the series. “That really was the shock when I got the job and, and went to 343 for their boot camp—which is basically just like an information download—got as much Halo, backstory, information, and history as I could in about five days,” he said. He continued, “And then they sent me away with this treasure trove of research, which started and was centered around the cinematics of the game, obviously. From beginning to, end everything that had been established inside the video games I had at my disposal. But then beyond that, they sent me a couple of novels, they sent me some graphic novels, all the animated shorts, all the live-action films. And what I started to realize is just the extent of what has been established in terms of mythology and lore is not only overwhelming, I mean, that’s an obvious word to throw around.”
