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.

@MakeAmericaGrea -
Over/under on any of them being any good?

If it isn't full of you know what, I'd watch another Jurassic Park show.

@MakeAmericaGrea - The reddit where these stories typically break first keeps track and has MTTSH rated as "Tier 3 - Somewhat Reliable" with 67.06% accuracy for Marvel and 63.33% overall.

Interesting. Thanks.

@ItsNotForMeWahh - Tend to feel that somewhat reliable status is still inflated due to the remote working period during the pandemic when most the well known scoopers were churning out large amounts of detailed and mostly reliable info (put down in large part to shoulder surfing supposedly where friends and family were seeing what the peeps involved were working on at home/discussing via live stream). Time will tell but feels like a long while since we had anything from MTTSH that isn't something most would guess and/or hasn't been put out by others already, normaly with a 'they are discussing' type bit such that if wrong they can claim they did consider it and ditched the ideas prior to final script/filming.

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.

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.

If it fails, Ubisoft may collapse and be sold to another company.

Boycott it!

Jurassic Park shows that could be made.

A more faithful novelization - a compy in a baby crib, Tim is older than Lex, river rafting, the dilophosaurus cuts Dennis' belly open, Alan injecting dinosaur eggs with a toxin and feeding them to raptors, compies paralyzing John and eating him, etc.

Isla Nublar and or Isla Sorna from the '70s or '80s to 1993.

Something more atmospheric and scary.

@MakeAmericaGrea - heck I’d be done for a Lost World show that’s faithful to the book as well. The Carno scene alone needs a live action adaptation

Will the Assassin's Creed show be better than the Assassin's Creed movie?

Top 10 Settings For an Assassin's Creed Show

1. Japan, with a Japanese man for the protagonist
2. Cavemen and dinosaurs
3. Dystopia
4. 3,000-10,000
5. The Battle of Thermopylae
6. 1986
7. Bohemian Grove
8. Bilderburg
9. A 2000 Puff Daddy freak off
10. Little St. James

@MakeAmericaGrea - They could be good but don't have a lot of trust they would be.

Ample ways with the premise they could rework the narratives of the games to have the continuity make more sense whilst keeping all that made those stories/action in the games good. On the flipside the basic premise (WITHOUT sticking close to the games) of accessing genetic memory to explore stories set in many differing era's offers a lot of potential but again, after the film adaption tend to feel there is more that could go wrong doing that than there is to improve upon it as I feel we'd get way too much in the near future and mess up with the stuff in the past to work well for most fans of the games (those new to it however and never played the games, open question).

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.
