Kotaku had a chat to Halo's franchise development director, Frank O'Connor, at the Future of Television East conference where he reiterated that there would be a Halo movie, and that the company would do whatever they could to foster the right direction for any such project.

"If Danny Boyle wants to make a Danny Boyle-style movie, that's great," he told the site. "Let Danny Boyle be Danny Boyle. We would not constrain a director."

"There will be a Halo movie," he continued. "We don't need a movie. But we'd like a movie. We'd like the moms of gamers to see the movies because they would love our characters. Maybe we'll even fund it ourselves."
