Netflix Greenlights Assassin’s Creed Live-Action Series
Netflix has officially greenlit a live-action Assassin’s Creed series, nearly five years after announcing its partnership with Ubisoft, with Roberto Patino (Westworld, DMZ) and David Wiener (Halo, The Killing) as showrunners and executive producers. The series is described as a high-octane thriller centered on the secret war between Assassins and Templars, exploring themes such as power, violence, sex, greed, vengeance, and human connection. While both Patino and Wiener are longtime fans, some fans are skeptical due to Wiener's involvement in the poorly received Halo adaptation and Netflix's mixed record with video game series. Optimism remains that the show could revitalize the Assassin’s Creed brand, similar to Cyberpunk: Edgerunners' impact on its game. No casting or release date has been announced, and it is unclear how closely the series will follow the game's narrative. Both Ubisoft and Netflix have stated their intention to honor the franchise’s legacy while attracting new audiences.
