New ‘Assassin’s Creed’ Poster Pays Tribute To Video Game Origins

20th Century Fox has released a brand new Assassin’s Creed poster that pays tribute to the film’s video game origins.

The new poster shows Michael Fassbender (Callum Lynch) overlooking a city and he appears to be planning for a lead of faith.

For fans of the video game, this world and visuals might feel familiar but for those of who haven’t played the game, this feels like a new and interesting world with impressive visual effects and fight choreography. Below we highlight the top five moments from the trailer, both good and bad (yes, we talk about that Kanye West song).

Callum Lynch discovers that his ancestor Aguilar, from 15th century Spain, was an Assassin. Callum relives Aguilar’s memories to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to confront the Templars — age-old enemies of the Assassins — in the present day.

Directed by Justin Kurzel and starring Michael Fassbender, Marion Cotillard, Michael K. Williams, Ariane Labed, Jeremy Irons, and Brendan Gleeson, Assassin’s Creed opens in theaters on December 21.
