Michael Fassbender gets a second chance in new Assassin’s Creed trailer

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Assassin's Creed Justin Kurzel Michael Fassbender

The questionable music choices continue in the second trailer for director Justin Kurzel's video game adaptation ASSASSIN'S CREED, but the icongruent song here is certainly better than the Kanye West featured in the first trailer.

Music aside, this trailer does set up an intriguing story and mixes cool visuals with the always entertaining sight of Michael Fassbender beating people up (with a little help from his friends).

Fassbender stars as 

Callum Lynch who, through a revolutionary technology that unlocks his genetic memories, is able to experience the adventures of his ancestor, Aguilar, in 15th Century Spain. Callum discovers he is descended from a mysterious secret society, the Assassins, and amasses incredible knowledge and skills to take on the oppressive and powerful Templar organization in the present day.

Marion Cotillard, Michael K. Williams, Jeremy Irons, Ariane Labed, and Brendan Gleeson co-star.

20th Century Fox will be releasing ASSASSIN'S CREED into theatres on December 21st.
