Almost five years after it was announced, Netflix’s Assassin’s Creed TV series is now moving ahead.
Netflix has officially greenlit the show and announced that Robert Patino (Westworld, Sons of Anarchy) and David Wiener (Halo, The Killing) are the creators, showrunners, and executive producers. In 2023, the previous showrunner, Jeb Stuart, quit the show over a “difference in vision.”
Here is the official description for the TV show (via THR): “Assassin’s Creed is a high-octane thriller centered on the secret war between two shadowy factions–one set on determining mankind’s future through control and manipulation, while the other fights to preserve free will. The series follows its characters across pivotal historical events as they battle to shape humanity’s destiny.”
