The Assassin's Creed film is an upcoming, feature-length motion picture being developed by Ubisoft and Sony Pictures Entertainment for a 2014 release, and is based on the award-winning games of the Assassin's Creed series.[1][2]
The terms and conditions surrounding the agreement between Ubisoft and Sony have been described by Hollywood insiders as "unheard of", with Ubisoft getting the final say on budget, principal cast, script, release date and more.[2] One individual even went so far as to say that "The whole Ubisoft/Sony deal is a waste of ink, paper and time. The level of control Sony gave up means, effectively, that Assassin’s Creed will never – and I mean never – get made."[3]
The level of control being afforded to Ubisoft has divided critics of both games and films, with many noting that whilst Hollywood insiders consider Sony's move to have killed the film before it's even begun, gamers consider the move to be beneficial to the franchise's future, as in recent years game-adaptations have tended to be of poor quality. The movie will be in 3D. [4]
