Bad news Assassin's Creed fans! It seems there have been changes on the upcoming Assassin's Creed movie.
According to reports from The Hollywood News Hound, "X-Men: Days of Future Past" star Michael Fassbender allegedly left the Assassin's Creed movie due to the lack of updates from the studio. Michael Fassbender was a proponent of the film plot being identical of the games' plot but according to reports, the plot has changed to a more "original" storyline that differs from the game.
The X-Men star once expressed his excitement of being part of Assassin's movie during an interview.
"Assassin's, I'm so happy with," Fassbender says. "I can't say anything more, but for a video game, the concept behind it, this idea of DNA memory, it is so interesting."
The movie website reported before that the Assassin's Creed movie will be a thriller in vein of the "Da Vinci" code movies and that it would feature no parkour sequences and the action scenes are similar to the ones shown on the Bourne movies. Michael Fassbender is not going to play Desmond Miles but a different character created for the movie. Desmond Miles is reportedly going to be referenced in passing only, and he would be reduced to a cameo role. Ezio Auditore, Altair and the rest of the featured assassins in Assassin's Creed will not appear in the movie at all but they would be referenced in the film.
