[Live by the Creed] Michael Fassbender to take lead role in planned Assassin's Creed movie

Go, Clean Cut!!!!

It would seem that the plans for a movie adaptation of Assassin's Creed is in full gear. Ubisoft Motion Pictures head Jean Juliet Baronnet announces that Michael Fassbender is their actor of choice to wear the beaked hood of the Assassin Order.

Fassbender, much known to some people as the young Magneto in the 2011 hit mutant movie X-Men: First Class, was also one of the Spartans in Frank Miller's 300 movie adaptation (namely, Stelios).

Not much information has been released, as to what era or which Assassin this movie will follow. Hopefully, it lives up to the video game.
