Netflix and Ubisoft have started working on a series based on Assassin’s Creed

The series was announced on the official Twitter of the online cinema, announcing that it will be produced by Jason Altman and Daniel Kreinik from Ubisoft. The company is currently looking for a showrunner.

Details about the series are currently unknown, as is the approximate release date. Whether the authors will take a specific game from the series as a basis is unknown.

This will not be the first adaptation of Assassin’s Creed — in 2016, the franchise released a film with Michael Fassbender in the title role, which caused a mostly negative reaction from critics. The film’s rating on Metacritic is 36 out of 100 (with an average user rating of 6.1 out of 10).

The series based on a series of action games from Ubisoft is not the first joint project of the publisher with Netflix. The online movie theater is going to release the film adaptation of the Division with Jake Gyllenhaal and Jessica Chastain in the lead roles, as well as an animated series based on Splinter Cell, which is being written by “John Wick”.
