Another story that I thought might of been a April fool's joke, but apparently its not. 

Latino Review is saying that a new Halo script has been written.  Stuart Beattie, the screen writer for G.I. Joe, has written a Spec Script called Halo: Fall Of Reach, which is based off a novel written by Eric Nylund.  The novel having the same name. 

A spec script is a script that has been written by a writer that hasn't been hired or payed to do so.

The cool thing about this is, the information about it sounds really cool.

The script is, first and foremost, a character-driven story about a soldier named John who was kidnapped or "conscripted" by the UNSC when he was just six years old, and then brutally trained to become an elite Spartan warrior known as Master Chief 117.
 
The script then takes us through the horrific first contact with the Covenant hordes on the doomed colony world of Harvest, and then climaxes with the spectacular fall of the UNSC forward base on Reach, during which every other Spartan is slaughtered.
 
The script also gives detailed outlines for the second movie, HALO: RISE OF THE FLOOD, which takes place entirely on the Halo ringworld, and the third and final movie, HALO: BATTLE FOR EARTH, which roughly follows the events of Halo 3, the game.
 
One cool advantage of this first script is that (like the shark in JAWS) you don't even see the Covenant until halfway through the movie. And because all the creatures are CGI creations, this cuts the budget down dramatically and makes a first Halo movie that much more viable. For Halo fans, it's like the prequel that provides all the answers to questions they've thought about for years. For non Halo fans, it's an exciting action movie that provides a clear, concise introduction to a world five hundred years in the future with relatable characters and a terrifying alien menace.

I really like the sound of it.  This really gets me excited because Halo is totally awesome.  My brother play's Halo a lot and he loves it.  He's not the only one, everyone that play's Halo loves it.  If a movie was made and it was done right, people could be in for a glorious action movie.

Overall, I really hope this isn't bullshit because I love how this sounds.  Microsoft could at least take a look at it because I think some money can be made.

If you don't know or never seen Halo, check out the bad ass video below.
