Michael Fassbender plots course for the Spanish Inquisition in today’s thrilling new trailer for Assassin’s Creed, the video game adaptation in the works from Snowtown and Macbeth director Justin Kurzel.
Slipping into the shoes of Callum Lynch and his long-forgotten ancestor, Aguilar de Nerha, Assassin’s Creed presents Fassbender with a fascinating dual role, as his characters comes to terms with the clandestine operation at the heart of the story.
