Assassin’s Creed Film is Now Officially in Production

During the company’s third-quarter fiscal earnings call, Ubisoft has confirmed that the Assassin’s Creed movie has finally begun production.

The film was announced in 2012, and has since been confirmed for a December 21st, 2016 release.

The adaptation will star X-Men actor Michael Fassbender, but where it will fit into the series’ storyline is currently unknown.

Assassin’s Creed is part of a recent wave of games being adapted into films, with the Uncharted movie coming in 2016, and a Hitman movie coming later this year.
