FASSBENDER EN LA PELÍCULA DE ASSASSIN’S CREED
Confirmado finalmente. No sé exactamente cual será vuestra valoración sobre este asunto. Aunque no he seguido muy de cerca su filmografía, yo solamente veo films checos subtitulados de los años cincuenta, parece que Michael Fassbender va a ser el protagonista de la adaptación cinematográfica de la franquicia Assassin’s Creed, de la mano de la productora New Regency. Además Ubi tiene en el firmamento alguna adaptación al formato TV de sus famosos Rabbits y films basados en franquicias como Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell y Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon. El amigo Tom se va a forrar. Ah bueno no, que vendió vitaliciamente los derechos de su nombre.
Today, Ubisoft® and New Regency announced that they are partnering on the forthcoming Assassin’s Creed® film.
Ubisoft Motion Pictures, the film and television division of Ubisoft, will develop the Assassin’s Creed film in close collaboration with New Regency. The development of a screenplay is beginning immediately and the project is being fast tracked as the creative pieces come together, while allowing Ubisoft to maintain control of key elements of the movie’s creative direction. Financial terms of the deal are not being disclosed.
“Ubisoft chose to partner with New Regency because they are a talent- and filmmaker-driven company, with the same independent and creative mindset that we have at Ubisoft Motion Pictures,” said Jean-Julien Baronnet, chief executive officer, Ubisoft Motion Pictures. “Bringing aboard New Regency’s renowned production and distribution expertise while maintaining our own creative and financial flexibility ensures that Assassin’s Creed will be a high-quality film that respects the lore and fans of the video game franchise.”
