Michael Fassbender and 'Assassins Creed' Movie


Michael Fassbender has signed to star and co-produce in UMP (Ubisoft Motion Pictures) 'Assassins Creed' movie through his DMC film banner.  As many of you know Michael Fassbender featured in many roles under his belt (300, Band of Brothers, X-Men First Class, Shame, Haywire, Prometheus) and has established himself as a rising star.


UMP CEO Jean-Julien Baronnet had the following to say about the actor (via Variety):
“Michael Fassbender was our first choice. Michael (Fassbender) is an extremely smart, talented, versatile and committed actor.”
Already having Michaal Fassbender at on board, has this development headed in the right direction. Only makes this news more exciting, being that many games turned to movies success rate was low.  I feel this is going to draw in the crowd. 


UMP signed with Sony, has been developing the property independently to retain greater creative control.  But no word yet on production, it is only in development, will keep you posted as more news comes out.


Ubisoft biggest franchise game 'Assissins Creed' revolves around a man who learns his ancestors were trained assassins after he is kidnapped by a secret organization with ties to the Knights Templar, and sent back in time to retrieve historical artifacts.
