The film is based onUbisoft’s popular video game series and produced by New Regency, Ubisoft Motion Pictures, DMC Films and Kennedy/Marshall, with 20th Century Fox distributing. Justin Kurzel (Snowtown, Macbeth) is directing and Michael Fassbender (Steve Jobs, X-Men: Apocalypse) stars in it. It went into pre-production in February of last year, but the cameras didn’t start rolling until the very end of August. After four months and 15 days, the film now heads off to post-production to allow the digital artists to give it that spit-shine finish.
