Two New Images Unveiled For ASSASSIN'S CREED Movie
20th Century Fox has released two new images from its highly-anticipated upcoming film adaptation of Assassin's Creed, with star Michael Fassbender front and center in each one. The first (above) shows the actor in full assassin costume, while the second (below) seems to depict a modern day fight at Abstergo. It's tough to tell what kind of weapon he's hoisting there, but it may be something new created specifically for the film. The phrase "We work in the dark to serve the light" appears in their tweet, and I assume we'll be hearing those words (which pop up in the games) spoken in the film as well.
Based on the Ubisoft game franchise, the Assassin’s Creed movie follows a character by the name of 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.
Be sure to check out the footage that was released at E3 if you haven't seen that yet. Assassin's Creed hits theaters on December 21, 2016.
