'Halo' Star Pablo Schreiber Regrets Controversial Sex Scene, Defends Helmet Decision

As season 2 of the 'Halo' TV series approaches, Schreiber reflects on the first season's controversies and defends creative choices.

Pablo Schreiber, who plays Master Chief in the 'Halo' TV series, has expressed regret over a controversial sex scene in the show's first season, calling it a 'huge mistake'.
The scene, which involved Schreiber's character and human prisoner-turned-mystic Makee, was met with backlash from fans and Schreiber himself.
Schreiber also defended the show's decision to frequently show Master Chief without his helmet, arguing that it's necessary for long-form storytelling in television.
The second season of 'Halo' is set to premiere on February 8, 2024, on Paramount+.
Season 2 is expected to be grittier and tougher, with Master Chief leading his team against the alien threat known as the Covenant.
