New Regency along with Ubisoft announced the other day that the popular franchise Assassins Creed, will likely be made into a motion picture.
Whilst the words video game and film in the same sentence inspire dread, melancholy and at worst, depression in us gamers once we think back about shows like Doom and Hitman with wishing for what they may have been, this announcement provokes inside me hope that Ubisoft might be on target.
Ubisoft Motion Pictures, the film brand of the video game titles development business by the same label, created in January 2011, will be maintaining complete creative control of the movie. Which is actually a great thing! With the screenplay already being written as well as characters already cast, shall we hope that Ubisoft provides the very same standard of story and enjoyment they actually do within their video games.
Chief executive officer of Ubisoft Motion Pics, a guy by the name of Jean-Julien Baronnet said "Bringing aboard New Regency's renowned production and distribution expertise while maintaining our own creative and financial flexibility ensures that Assassin's Creed will be a high-quality film that respects the lore and fans of the video game franchise."
The production business New Regency, has developed a number of strongly rated motion pictures for their time for example "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" as well as "Natural Born Killers", nevertheless they have produced some significant flops like "Daredevil". Nevertheless Jean-Julien moved on to express "Ubisoft chose to partner with New Regency because they are a talented filmmaker-driven company, with the same independent and creative mindset that we have at Ubisoft Motion Pictures."
New Regency are now taking care of the Rabbids Tv show, which is to be consists of Seventy Eight times 7-minute episodes carried out in CGI. in partnership with France Televisions and also Nickelodeon. Did you have any idea that had been on the cards? This is the first I have been aware of it, but it surely may be important, not that I actually watch television ever. Cuts too much into my personal playing games time, but I will surely keep my eyes open and rent it online when it comes out.
The major cheese from New Regency - Brad Weston, told us "We wanted to do everything we could to secure the rights to Assassin's Creed, which Ubisoft has maintained with such care and quality over the years." Well I am sure you did Brad, only have a look at the income of Assassin's Creed within the last few years, yet this is the sign for you personally: Those AC video games are awesome... really great. You won't have the same product sales statistics if you do not make the movie every bit as good as the video game, if not superior. There, I said it.
He continued to say: "Having just finished working with Michael on Steve McQueen's 12 Years A Slave (with Plan B) made the partnership even more irresistible."
And by Michael, he means the Michael Fassbender (the guy that played Magneto in X-men First Class) that is currently aboard to perform a key role within the motion picture. Who'll he play? I don't know, I'd personally envision he is either intending to play Desmond Miles or Altar ibn-La'Ahad... Say that A few times fast. Yet my money is Desmond, since they appear quite similar and Michael is German, which puts him in a poor position to play Altar, although he can play each of them technically.
Furthermore, i discovered one more wonderful tidbit of real info, that I 'm quite pumped up about, and forgive me in the event you already knew this, but Ubisoft Motion Pictures is not just doing work on a single game to motion picture adaption. They're presently already in development with Splinter Cell and Ghost Recon. These days there are a couple of movies I'd personally really like to view.
And then to add to the fantastic Assassins Creed 3 news today, you might have noticed it on television, but if you have not or you want to see in High-definition at your personal speed, here is the brand new Television spot for Assassins Creed three. Find it here: http://youtu.be/mc-J2cZEAxE
