Halo TV Show: New Tweet From Master Chief Actor Has Fans Divided

"I don't do impressions" You are playing a already known and loved character🤷‍♂️ Ngl as a huge Halo fan I don't think this show will work. I hope I'm wrong

That's the greatest response anyone could ever ask for and already know you & the team will do a great job expanding on John & the Halo Universe.@Halo don't know who's in charge of the whole operations of the Show from 343i but y'all got a great and humble actor on the project.

Impressions and voices are part of playing a character lmao but do you. Master Chiefs voice was the most iconic part of him as a character.🤷‍♂️

Trying to beat Downes at his own take at John/Chief is a net-zero game; even if it can be done well, it by definition can never be identical to to definitive, original portrayal.

Taking a different tact doesn't guarantee quality, but it's broadly speaking the right decision IMO.

Been a fan ever since I saw American Gods. Can’t wait to see you take on @Halo

If you don’t sound like the master chief, you ain’t the masterchief

Very excited to see an actor of your skill take on MC.

There is a lot of baggage MC carries with him and this story has huge emotional potential well beside cool armor and pew pew aliens.

You got this, Pablo!

Wait, so you're telling me that you're meant to portray the main character of Halo, but yet you're refusing to do it properly? That's practically saying that all these 20 years of that voice are meaningless to you. Do it right, do let someone else be the voice. This is stupid.

You are SUCH a great character player too. Especially love the 'scary' characters, like in SVU... You are suspiciously excellent in playing psychos 🤣😂 pic.twitter.com/VX68spjHKh

Then dont play the character if you cant get a similar style, we didnt have a face for master cheif so his voice was his face for us fans. So dont play our character if you think youre too good for it.
