During a recent interview with McV, Ubisoft's European chief Alain CorreĪssassin's Creed Preview Goes On Set with Michael Fassbender Assassin's Creed features an all-star cast including Michael Fassbender in the dual role of Callum Lynch and his 15th Century descendant Aguilar, alongside Marion Cotillard, Jeremy Irons, Brendan Gleeson and Michael K. Later this year, another high-profile video game movie will hit theaters, Assassin's Creed, although it seems that the company behind the game itself isn't expecting it to be a huge hit.

Before this year, only one movie, 2001's Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, had earned more than $100 million ($131.1 million) at the domestic box office, but this summer, The Angry Birds Movie took in $105.1 million domestically and $337.5 million worldwide, while Warcraft became the highest-grossing video game adaptation worldwide with $430 million and counting, although only $46.5 million of that tally has come from the domestic market. Why Assassin's Creed Doesn't Need to Be a Hit According to Ubisoftīefore 2016, video game movies have never exactly struck it big at the box office. While he didn't exactly tear the movie apart, he was very clear about his issues The actor recently spoke with Movie'n'co about the Assassin's Creed movie and, now that he doesn't have a marketing obligation to try and get people to see the movie, he was willing to get candid about his thoughts.

He agrees and, given the chance, there are plenty of things he would change about the Assassin's Creed movie. Unfortunately, he couldn't save the movie from being, at best, painfully average. Namely, Assassin's Creed, which was fronted by an A-list cast that included Michael Fassbender, easily one of the finest actors working in Hollywood today. It hasn't been for a lack of trying, as some of the most high-profile, beloved game franchises on the planet have made their way to the big screen in recent years. Hollywood is still waiting to get the video game movie right.
