Assassin's Creed sees Michael Fassbender cast as the protagonist Callum Lynch, in this action adventure film that is based on the video game franchise of the same name. Lynch's identity no longer exists and he is forced by revolutionary technology to hear, see and feel the memories of his ancestor Aguilar de Nerha, who was an assassin during the Spanish Inquisition.

During the process of Lynch re-living these memories he develops the skills and knowledge needed in order to confront the Templars (a society with a very different future planned out from the Assassins). They are the enemies of the assassins (who desire peace through free will) in the present day. He also learns that he too is descendent from this secret society, which in turn gives an explanation as to why he has the ability to achieve these skills. This film is directed by Justin Kurzel and is set to be released on the 21st December 2016.
