Bruce Willis channels Halo’s Master Chief in the new trailer for Cosmic Sin. The sci-fi epic tells the story of seven elite soldiers who, after with an alien civilization, are tasked with enacting a preemptive assault against them to prevent an intergalactic war. Starring Bruce Willis (Zombieland: Double Tap).
Cosmic Sin's premise bears a striking resemblance to the world-renowned X-Box video game franchise, live-action series currently in production. Much like Cosmic Sin, Halo involves an intergalactic war between humanity and an alien race called “the Covenant.” At the forefront of said war are armed human space rangers known as “Spartans” and one of their top military soldiers named Master Chief.

No stranger to saving the planet, some of Willis’s most notable work includes films like 1997’s Armageddon. However, this time, as opposed to facing off against a sentient antagonist, the big-budget blockbuster Michael Bay picture sees Willis as driller/ everyman Harry Stamper, protecting the planet from an aberrant asteroid set on a deadly collision course.
Willis’s film resume has thoroughly prepared him for Cosmic Sin. From taking down terrorists in a skyscraper in Die Hard to dropping bombs on space rocks in Armageddon (similar to the mission at the center of Cosmic Sin), Willis is the right person for the job. Further outfitting him in rugged, space combat gear, similar to Halo’s Master Chief, and you have a hero perfectly set to safeguard Earth against any threat. Cosmic Sin will be released in theaters, on digital, and on-demand on March 12.
