ASSASSIN'S CREED Movie Trailer Recut With New Music
Last night, the first trailer was released for Michael Fassbender's adaptation of the hit video game franchise Assassin's Creed. I loved what I saw in the trailer and visually, it looked amazing. I didn't really care for the music used in the trailer, though, and neither did a lot of other fans. I saw a lot of complaints about it, but just because the musical choice was bad doesn't mean the movie is going to be bad because I think Assassin's Creed is going to kick ass.
The trailer has already been recut to some new music by GamesRadar and they used a song called Iron by Woodkid, which was used in the trailer for the video game Assassin's Creed: Revelations. It definitely makes the trailer flow a little better.
The film was directed by Justin Kurrzel (Macbeth), and Fassbender is joined by Marion Cotillard (Inception), Michael K. Williams (The Wire), Jeremy Irons (Batman v Superman), and Brendan Gleeson (Edge of Tomorrow).
Assassin’s Creed is set to be released on December 21st, 2016.
The film is based on the Ubisoft video game franchise, and the story follows a character named Callum Lynch who, "through a revolutionary technology that unlocks his genetic memories, is able to experience 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."
