Assassin's Creed Movie Gets New Release Date
The Assassin's Creed movie starring Michael Fassbender has been given a new release date by 20th Century Fox.
The film is now slated to hit theaters on December 21, 2016 – a week after the planned date for the first Star Wars spin-off movie. The Assassin's Creed movie was originally penciled in for a spring 2015 release, and then it was expected for summer 2015.
Justin Kurzel, who is also directing Fassbender in this year's Macbeth, is behind the camera for Assassin's Creed.

Our Take
The holidays are a great time to release blockbusters, but even a week removed from Star Wars, I wonder if it's a form of release-date suicide.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
