Production
Nightfall will be filmed in Iceland and Ireland.[8] Filming in Belfast, Ireland was reported to have started by early June 2014[9] and finished as of June 12, 2014, being subsequently continued in Iceland.[10]
The series will have a $10,000,000 (USD) budget, which is considerably larger than Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn's. On May 15, 2014, it was announced that actor Mike Colter is set to star in the feature. Colter will play the main character, Jameson Locke,[10][11] "a rising star in a futuristic army with reservations about those in command". Locke was known tentatively as "Marlowe" during production.[12] On July 10, 2014, it was announced that actress Christina Chong will have a role in the webseries.[13] The first official trailer was released on July 24th, 2014, at San Diego Comic-Con, which stated that Locke's team was tracking down reports of an element that specifically targeted humans on the distant colony of Sedra.[7]
