Watch an exclusive teaser clip of Michael Fassbender in the upcoming Assassin’s Creed
Starring Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard, the film adaptation of the video game is out in January
AS it creeps up on us, for the gamers out there, January 1, 2017 only means one thing.
The film adaptation of Assassin's Creed will finally be released in UK cinemas.
Starring Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard, the film focuses on Callum Lynch (Fassbender) as he is sent back to relive his ancestor's past.
The film is based on the immensely popular video-game of the same name and follows a similar storyline.
Through a technological revolution, Callum Lynch is to experience the life of his ancestors during the Spanish Inquisition.
It appears that Dr. Sophia Rikkin, played by Cotillard, is a scientist out to understand more about violence through genetic memories.
The clip shows the scene in which Fassbender's Callum Lynch is told that he is about to experience the life of his ancestor, Aguilar.
Already clear from previous trailers, the clip confirms that the film won't be short of action.
Something that this clip does show, that others have not, is just how good Cotillard's performance is set to be.
There's something disturbingly haunting in the way that she portrays the doctor.
Her clinical and soul-less exterior as she says, "Commence regression," is enough to strike fear in anyone.
Callum Lynch discovers a world that proves he descends from a secret society, the Assassins.
The film also stars, Hovik Keuchkerian, Jeremy Irons, Brendan Gleeson and Khalid Abdalla.
Although we have no doubt that Assassin's Creed will comprise of a complex story-line and will undoubtedly leave us asking 'What just happened?' a lot, this latest clip leaves us in a state of pure excitement.
