Watch: The newest Assassin’s Creed movie trailer gives us Fassbending action

The newest trailer for Ubisoft’s upcoming Assassin’s Creed film is here, and it pushes the similarities to its gaming counterpart even more. Protagonist Callum Lynch, played by Michael Fassbender, is shifting between present day and the memories of his past relatives, mirroring the video game premise almost to a tee.

This latest trailer shows us why the concept could do well on film. Lynch relives his ancestor’s past as an assassin in 15th Century Spain, and brings that knowledge (and fighting skills?) into modern day to take on the Templar organization.

This may undo all the wrongs of Prince of Persia. We’ll find out December 21 in theaters.
