Are video game movies about to start being good? That's the hope with Assassin's Creed, the upcoming adaptation of Ubisoft's hit series from Macbeth director Justin Kurzel. Michael Fassbender is starring in and producing the movie, and talking to Entertainment Weekly, the X-Men: Apocalypse star had this to say about his experience with the games. "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." As for the physicallity which comes with a role like this, he added: "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." Sounds pretty great, don't you think?
