    It looks like the Assassin’s Creed movie is going to be a really real thing. 20th Century Fox has set a May 22, 2015 release date for the film which has X-Men: First Class star and all-around badass Michael Fassbender starring in and producing with a script from Michael Lesslie.

    Let’s hope that Ubisoft can make an Assassin’s Creed game that I will want to finish all the way through before then.

    I am going ahead and giving warning that everytime someone dies in this movie I am going to yell in the theater “Fassassinated!!”.

  • Ellen Page, Anna Paquin And Shawn Ashmore Are X-Men Again

    So can we now officially say that Bryan Singer is making the biggest X-Men movie ever? The director already has the returning cast of X-Men: First Class, including Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy and Jennifer Lawrence as well as Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellan and Hugh Jackman reprising their roles. Singer has just announced that three more X-movie alumni are returning for X-Men: Days of Future’s Past.

    Ellen Page, Anna Paquin and Shawn Ashmore will be donning their suits once again as Kitty Pryde, Rogue and Iceman. All we need now is for Tyler Mane and Liev Schreiber to have a celebrity deathmatch to see which one gets to play Sabretooth and let’s not forget that Vinnie Jones is only a phone call away to play Juggernaut again.

    X-Men: Days of Future’s Past is based on Chris Claremont’s legendary 1981 story where the X-Men have to stop a future event from happening that causes mutants to be kept prisoners in a dystopian future. It is set for release on July 18, 2014.

  • X-Men: First Class Sequel Welcomes Old Friends

    Director Bryan Singer tweeted some welcome news yesterday and confirmed that Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan were both returning to the X-Men franchise as Professor X and Magneto respectively.

    While many thought this would happen with the newest X-Men flick being based on Chris Claremont’s classic Days of Future’s Past story it is good to see the director of the first two X-Men flicks get part of the band back together for the movie.

    So not only do you have James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender returning but now Stewart and McKellan as well as Singer back directing. How can this possibly not be awesome?

  • Splinter Cell Movie Finds Its Sam Fisher

    While the Splinter Cell movie may not have a studio backing it, it does have a writer and now a star attached to it.

    Tom Hardy, who played Bane in The Dark Knight Rises and Shinzon in Star Trek: Nemesis for you trekkies, will play Sam Fisher. Now if we can just get Michael Ironside to dub his voice in for the entire movie we will be set.

    This has been a big few weeks for Ubisoft on the big screen. To go along with the Splinter Cell announcement they also have the Assassin’s Creed film with Michael Fassbender set to begin production next year.
