‘Halo’ Showrunner Steven Kane Leaving After First Season
Things seem to be getting interesting with the Halo TV adaptation. With the show moving from Showtime to Paramount+ four months ago, according to Variety, the series’ showrunner, Steven Kane will be leaving the production once the first season is completed.
Production is still ongoing for the first season, with Kane joining Kyle Killen as co-showrunner. Kane’s decision to leave the Budapest production and return to the US is apparently for personal reasons.
Produced by 343 Industries and Amblin Television, the series has Otto Bathurst on board to direct. Pablo Schreiber stars as Master Chief, with Danny Sapani, Olive Gray and Charlie Murphy also set as series regulars. Natascha McElhone, Bokeem Woodbine, Shabana Azmi, Bentley Kalu, Natasha Culzac, Kate Kennedy and Yerin Ha are also set to star.
The Ghostbusters franchise returns to the world of animation with brand new Netflix series “Ghostbusters: Night Shift,” and the official logo has been revealed this weekend.
Expect “Ghostbusters: Night Shift” to clock in on Netflix in 2027!
Netflix previews, “Ghostbusters: Night Shift, a series from Netflix and Sony Pictures Animation based on the beloved Ghostbusters franchise, will debut exclusively on Netflix in 2027.
“The new series marks the next chapter in the franchise’s ghoul-catching legacy, bringing supernatural comedy and paranormal action back to animation.”
The upcoming animated series from Netflix will be executive produced by Ben Hibon, Elliott Kalan, Jason Reitman, Gil Kenan, Amie Karp, and Dan Aykroyd.
Reitman, son of Ivan Reitman, director of the original Ghostbusters features, and Kenan co-wrote the franchise’s most recent installments, Ghostbusters: Afterlife and Frozen Empire.
“This isn’t the first time the Ghostbusters universe has gone animated,” Netflix reminds in their press release today. “The 1980s and ’90s saw The Real Ghostbusters and Extreme Ghostbusters take over the small screen. For now, you can rest assured: If there’s something strange in your neighborhood, a Ghostbuster will be on the job — even if it’s after hours.”
