Uwe Boll not doing Halo movie

World breathes sigh of relief.

Rumours of Boll's involvement began after he was billed as the Halo director on the movie's IMDB entry.

Boll was responsible for the film adaptations of Alone in the Dark and House of the Dead - and even admitted the latter was rubbish in a recent interview. He's also recently completed a big screen version of BloodRayne and is currently hard at work on the Dungeon Siege and Postal movies.
