Started filming the film adaptation of Assassin's Creed

The adaptation of the game is also to a large extent a “leap of faith”



The company Ubisoft Motion Pictures has begun shooting the expected adaptation of the popular Assassin's Creed series of games. This became known from the company's financial plan for the first quarter. The film is shot together with the studio New Regency . The planned release date is December 21, 2016. New Regency is known for such recent hits as 12 Years a Slave (12 years of slavery), Birdman (Birdman) and Gone Girl (Disappeared).



Yves Guillemot, President of Ubisoft Motion Pictures , made an official announcement : “We are pleased to announce that Green Light has been given to New Regency and the film has already begun. This is a very important milestone for the project and for our team working on Assassin's Creed. ”



Ubisoft Motion Pictures is a division specially created by Ubisoft for the adaptation of their successful game projects. It appeared back in 2011, and Assassin's Creed was the first project that it was decided to transfer to the screens.

Virtually ever since Michael Fassbender ("X-Men: Days of the Future Past", "Steve Jobs") has been cast as the lead man and producer, Justin Kursel ("10 Moments of Fate", "Snow City") as a director, and for the most recent Adam Cooper and Bill Collage (co-produced on How to Steal a Skyscraper and Exodus: Kings and Gods) are responsible for the script version.



The release date is only a week away from the release of the recently announced project branch from the Star Wars saga . The project has no name yet, its plot is unknown. We only know that the director will be Gareth Edwards, who shot the last “Godzilla”, and the film should be released on December 16, 2016. Ubisoft will have to try very hard with his screen version to argue with such a project - especially since the screen versions of games do not have a good reputation.
