ASSASSIN'S CREED, FAST & FURIOUS, And JURASSIC WORLD All Rumored To Be Getting Live-Action TV Shows

ASSASSIN'S CREED, FAST & FURIOUS, And JURASSIC WORLD All Rumored To Be Getting Live-Action TV Shows

We have some potentially very exciting news to share with you as a new rumour claims that live-action TV shows set in the worlds of Assassin's Creed, Fast & Furious, and Jurassic World are in the works.

While the streaming bubble hasn't burst quite yet, there are now so many of the services that subscribing to them all is near-impossible for normal people.

As a result, the likes of Netflix, Amazon, and Disney+, not to mention smaller efforts like Paramount+ and Peacock, need to deliver the sort of content that potential subscribers are desperate to see. That's led to many big screen franchises being translated to the small screen. 

Today, we may be able to add three more to the list. 

According to scooper @MyTimeToShineH, Netflix is developing Assassin's Creed as both an anime and live-action TV series. However, each of those will tell brand new stories and won't adapt the games. That likely means new characters, new settings, and less of the franchise's confusing lore. 

The prolific leaker has also revealed that Universal has Jurassic Park/World and Fast & Furious TV shows in development for Peacock. 

We'd imagine the latter would return to the action franchise's roots with street racing and plenty of memorable stunts. As for a potential Jurassic series, the possibilities are endless and many fans would welcome the opportunity to step back into the Park, for example. 

A couple of years ago, there was some chatter online about a potential Fast & Furious/Jurassic World crossover, an idea filmmaker Colin Trevorrow wasn't overly keen on at the time. 

"I mean of course not," the filmmaker initially responded when asked if he'd like to see Vin Diesel's action hero square off with a dinosaur. "Because I am obviously like the most earnest maker of Jurassic Park movies that we have. I think that if one came in looking to watch them ironically as opposed to earnestly that might be exactly where you go."

"This idea is so new. That wasn't allowed when I was a kid, you didn't get to just like you did when you were playing with the toys, you smash them together. Now it's like, well whatever your parent company happens to own, you can [use]."

As for a possible Jurassic crossover he would like to be involved with, Trevorrow added, "I guess it would be 'Bourne' because that's...I feel like him running away from dinosaurs, he'd be effective but like I put raptor we kind of did something in that vein."

None of these potential TV shows have been announced and we don't know how far into development they currently are. Hopefully, we'll have more to share with you soon.

I can't wait for the single AC episode where they might spend around 5 minutes in the Animus.


Seriously, the present-day human element is the least interesting bit. People love AC for the historical bloody shenanigans you get up to. There's a reason the games take place 95% into the Animus. Lean on that.

@OrgasmicPotatoe - I liked that part until they screwed it up. They clearly didn't have a plan for it so they wrapped it up and just dropped it.

@CreateNowSlpL8r - Admittedly, my memories of that movie are very scarce, most likely because it was a forgettable movie, but all I remember was how badly I got baited into an AC movie that turned out to be an Abstergo movie.

@OrgasmicPotatoe - I mean the games. The movie wasn't great.

@CreateNowSlpL8r - Oh, right ! True, it was interesting, but clearly, they didn't know where to go after the big finale of 3. My favourite game remains Black Flag. Minimal present-day stuff, and sea shanties for days on end !

@OrgasmicPotatoe - That was a good one. A shame they never remastered it. I'm one of the few that liked the older combat system too.

I honestly don’t really have any interest in a Jurassic or F & F show but Assassin’s Creed however is a different story…

I used to be a big fan of that franchise but fell off after Black Flag or so but having Netflix develop a anime and a live action series could work I think.

Even doing an original story and not adapting any of the games is fine with me (even though I would love to see a live action Ezio) since there’s precedent for it within the premise with Abstergo & the Animus , the latter of which allows one to relive their ancestors genetic memories…

You could just do each a season a different historical Assassin or if they want a more serialized element , add the modern day aspect of the heroes trying to avert a disaster that has its ties to the past thus having parallel storylines.

They are certainly different ways to approach it imo which could be fun but we’ll see.

It was only a matter of time! Assassin's Creed might have better luck as a Live-Action TV Show than a crappy movie. Of course Fast & Furious and Jurassic World already both have an Animated Series, so it will be interesting to see what stories they come up with in a Live-Action Show?

Only thing JP related id wanna watch would be a full on sci-fi horror adaptation of the novel. The whole Jurassic World trilogy just left a "bleh" taste in my mouth.

Fast and Furious series could be cool if it returned to the street race setting that the series started with.

Indifferent on AC, as I've haven't played more than 2 hours of the games.

As long as Assassins Creed isn’t based off the upcoming delayed yet again game, yikes, what a mess that is.

Assassin's Creed can easily take place in the games' universe. Just make it 100% set in the past and future some precursor relics. A show doesn't need a videogame frame device.

As for the other two, no thanks. Both franchises are already pushing it with the movies. Just cross them over and be done with it.

AC should've been a show before a movie. Just way too much lore to cram into 2 hours.

Combine the Jurassic Park and Fast franchises and give the people what they want...

just make assassins creed an anthology series, each season set in a different time period

Havent played the games since 3 but seems they abandoned the story they were building up in modern day (even resolving what was set up in a comic book) so no point in the present day story.

@dracula - They set it around the 2012 doomsday rubbish and they just had no where else to go with it after that

@KwisatzHaderach - I might be one of the few that liked the future through line. They just screwed it up. They should have been leading to a modern day game and they could have gone back and forth like chapters to a good story. Then they moved from Assassins in the games all together because they didn't want to deal with linear story telling. It didnt help that most of the future stuff was some weird puzzle solving which took you right out of the game. The 2012 was avoided but Juno is still free. Enough time has passed to show what the war between the templars and assassins is NOW. That was supposed to be the point of it all. They could easily jump to some future year and have her be behind natural disasters or whatever. You just need a new future protagonist you can get behind. Maybe have Desmond have a son he didn't know about.
