"We wanted to do something unique from a narrative standpoint that's big in scale."
— Matt McCloskey - Director, Franchise Business Development

Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn is an upcoming live-action miniseries. The series is comprised of five 15-minute episodes that will be released on a weekly basis. The series' plot will revolve around how John-117 inspired a young cadet to eventually become a leader on the Template:UNSCship. Along with a new character that will also appear in Halo 4, the series will explore the beginning of the Human-Covenant War.[1] It will be hosted on Halo Waypoint and Machinima.com.[2]

An early episode of the series is currently known as "Sleeper" and is in production.[3]

Production

Filming is noted to have started as early as April 28th, 2012 at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, a popular filming location for many notable science fiction series like Stargate SG-1 and Battlestar Galactica.[3] The episode, known as Sleeper, is set at the university, doubling as a futuristic UNSC officer academy, will introduce the main protagonist of Forward Unto Dawn.[3] Propaganda murals depicting Orbital Drop Shock Troopers and fighter aircraft, statues of historic military commanders (including a depiction of Roman general Gnaeus Domitius Corbulo), and other signature futuristic artwork were seen decorated around the campus.[3]
