Could a Master Chief Halo Movie be done...

…without showing chiefs face?

If Microsoft finally partnered up with someone and made a Halo movie would it be possible to captivate an audience with a faceless Master Chief?

I’ve been thinking about this for as long as Halo was a thing. I always think to Iron Man and how the movie may not be watchable if Iron Man was a faceless super soldier. I obviously ask this question because Chief has been faceless through all the games and through the ending portion of FuD. Do you think a Halo movie would be watchable without seeing MC’s face?

Iron Man was humanized, to make him identifiable. Chief’s loss of Cortana in 4 made him appear as less of a machine, more identifiable. This, I thought, was actually a huge success on 343i’s part. They didn’t show his face…at least, not more than his eyes. :stuck_out_tongue: I think it would be fully possible. :smiley:

Yes. If they showed his face a lot of people would be angry.
