Exodus: Gods and Kings.
The
Assassin's Creed movie recently
got a rewrite from The Wolverine scribe Scott Frank. It's not unusual for big properties to pass through multiple writers' hands on its way to the screen.
New Regency is working with Ubisoft to develop the film.
12 Years a Slave and
X-Men star Michael Fassbender is attached as the lead, though it remains unconfirmed as to whether that will mean he plays Desmond Miles or whether the Animus narrative mechanism will be ditched in favour of a more straight historical approach.
