Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Pablo Schreiber is 6'5" and still wore platform boots to match Chief's game height. The man suffered for this role.
The show's Silver Timeline exists specifically to anger lore purists—it's a separate canon so they could give Chief a face and a girlfriend. The Halo subreddit still hasn't recovered.
