Michael Fassbender stars in the first trailer for the much-anticipated film based on Assassin’s Creed.

I’ll be honest, I’ve never played the game so I know nothing about whether the film looks to be a faithful adaptation. However, I am happy to watch Fassbender in pretty much anything.

The cast also includes Marion Cotillard, Jeremy Irons and Brendan Gleeson and the film is directed by Justin Kurzel (who previously worked with Fassbender and Cotillard on last year’s Macbeth).

The story follows Callum Lynch (Michael Fassbender), a descendant of the mysterious secret society the Assassins, must use his deadly skills to battle the powerful Templar organisation.

The film’s due in cinemas later this year.
