Assassin Creed Movie

Meet Michael Fassbender as Callum Lynch! Based on the popular and prolific video game series of the same name, the Assassin’s Creed movie is set to open tin theaters December 21, 2016.

The character in the film is totally original, not from any of the many games in the series. That’s a heads-up for all the hardcore Assassin’s Creed gamers. The movie is focusing on introducing new characters rather than retelling any of the existing games.

The film is officially described below:

“Through a revolutionary technology that unlocks his genetic memories, Callum Lynch (Michael Fassbender) experiences the adventures of his ancestor, Aguilar, in 15th Century Spain. Callum discovers he is descended from a mysterious secret society, the Assassins, and amasses incredible knowledge and skills to take on the oppressive and powerful Templar organization in the present day.

Apart from Michael Fassbender, the Assassin’s Creed movie also includes stars such as Marion Cotillard (The Dark Knight Rises), Michael Kenneth Williams (12 Years a Slave), and Ariane Labed (Before Midnight), cameras start rolling for Assassin’s Creed on Monday. Filming is set to happen in Malta, London, and Spain.
