It’s father’s day for console game adaptation Assassin’s Creed. Which is to say that Brendan Gleeson and Jeremy Irons have jumped aboard the film to play a pair of dads.
Macbeth director Justin Kurzel has his Bard starring pair Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard back for this one, which writers Bill Collage, Adam Cooper and Michael Lesslie have adapted from the high-selling UbiSoft title. Fassbender is starring as an everyman kidnapped by a mysterious, high-tech organisation and forced to relive the memories of his assassin ancestors as he locates powerful artefacts. Gleeson is Fassbender’s father while Irons plays Cotillard’s pop.
They join a cast that already includes Michael Kenneth Williams, Ariane Labed, Carlos Bardem, Javier Gutiérrez and Denis Ménochet, with Kurzel currently cranking the cameras ready for a December 30, 2016 release.
Gleeson, most recently seen Stonehearst Asylum, will next crop up in Suffragette, out October 12 and In The Heart Of The Sea, which docks on December 26. Irons has Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice out on March 29 next year and is in Ben Wheatley’s High-Rise, which has yet to solidify its release date.
