Assassin’s Creed Film Given Release Date

January 6, 2015

20^th Century Fox announced several dates for their upcoming film lineup in 2016 and 2017, and of particular note to gamers is the inclusion of the long-awaited Assassin's Creed film.

The title is still tied to Michael Fassbender (Inglourious Basterds, 12 Years a Slave) in the starring role, with Justin Kurzel (Snowtown) slated to direct. The film is slated for a December 21, 2016 release, which will put it one week behind the launch of the newest Star Wars film.

That scheduling sure sounds promising. Then again, it's a video game movie. What could possibly go wrong?

I'm currently based out of Las Vegas, NV (no I don't gamble all the time or live in a hotel on the strip) but I'm a So Cal kid through and through. I'm a Nintendiehard -- I stand by my man -- but I'm a fan of games no matter what the console, including Steam. RPGs, fighting, and action/adventure are my fortes. Give me a great story and characters any day. Call of Duty? I guess, if that's your thing. Classic Final Fantasy and Zelda? Now you're cookin' with gas!

When I'm not gaming, I like culinary adventures, moviegoing, and the Intert00bz. Ask me about my favorite web shows! I can get down on some anime, my favorite sports are boxing and baseball, and I can even get in tune with that parapsychological vibe, even though it's well-known and well-documented I'm kinda a pansy with horror stuff. (I think they get a kick out of assigning me those games for review.)

I'm also single and available, but sorry gamer girls, I play with joysticks.
