During a conversation with EW, Fassbender said he hadn't played any of the video games before being approached to star in the big screen adaptation from his MACBETH director Justin Kurzel, however he's played them since "mainly to get an idea of the physicality of the character."

The actor also went on to say “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.” What are your thoughts on this new look at Michael Fassbender from ASSASSIN'S CREED?

ASSASSIN'S CREED is due out on December 21, 2016, and there's speculation that the first trailer might debut with BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE.
