Microsoft has provided the first look at Agent Locke, the main character in upcoming live-action Halo series Halo Nightfall.
Agent Locke will be played by Mike Colter (The Good Wife, American Horror Story, Zero Dark Thirty), who was rumoured to be involved in the project back in April.
According to Variety, Agent Locke is a member of the Office of Naval Intelligence. His team is sent to investigate terrorist activity on a distant colony and discovers an "ancient, hellish artefact".
Agent Locke will also play a "major role" in the upcoming Halo 5: Guardians on Xbox One.
Colter told Variety that he had no prior knowledge of the Halo series, but signed up for the project because the "script was incredibly gripping", adding: "It introduces an intriguing and mysterious world that I wanted to know more about.
"Fortunately, ensuring accessibility to a broad audience is one of the things that [Ridley Scott's production company] Scott Free TV and 343 values first and foremost.
"Not only does Halo: Nightfall cater to the hardcore Halo fans, but it's also designed so newcomers to the franchise, like me, can easily enter the Halo universe, identify with the characters and be entertained by the story being told on screen."
Halo: Nightfall is an upcoming live-action digital series helmed by Ridley Scott, and is to be included as part of Halo: The Master Chief Collection.
Microsoft will offer a 'first look' at Halo: Nightfall at the San Diego Comic Con this month, the company has confirmed.
