Entertainment Weekly gave us our first official image from the Assassin’s Creed movie Starring Michael Fassbender. Fassbender also chimed in on the video game adaptation, and how he hadn’t played the game until he got the role.
I’ve played it since [being offered the job] mainly to get an idea of the physicality of the character. We’re striving to find something special. We believe the whole concept around it is special and want to service that the best we can. The fans are really passionate: very specific and they expect accuracy and historical detail. We’re really trying to capitalize and feed on and enjoy the fun element. We’re working hard to make this something special.
A lot of the stuff in the game is Parkour. Blades attached to his wrists. It’s about getting in close to the target, close quarters fighting.
