While the production for the Assassin’s Creed movie seemed rocky at first, it looks like it will be coming back in full force thanks to Michael Fassbender. Fassbender’s production company, DMC Films, will be teaming up with Ubisoft to bring the popular franchise to the big screen. Fassbender will also take the lead role of the assassin, although it’s unclear on which protagonist the movie will center on.
Though if the movie’s plot reveals anything, it will be sticking very closely to the games.
It “revolves around a man who learns his ancestors were trained assassins after he is kidnapped by a secret org with ties to the Knights Templar, and sent back in time to retrieve historical artifacts.”
While video game adaptations don’t have the greatest reputation in the world, having a versatile actor like Michael Fassbender can’t hurt the movie’s chances of being decent.
