His destiny is in his blood–a lineage of violence that stretches 500 years into the past…all the way to the Spanish Inquisition. From the epic video-game series comes this battle-packed action film featuring an Oscar(R)-calibre cast and world-class special effects. Michael Fassbender (Oscar® nominee for “Steve Jobs” and “12 Years a Slave”) stars as Cal Lynch, a death-row inmate sent back in time to learn the killing skills of his ancient relations–a secret society of assassins who fought to save free will from their Templar enemies. Co-starring Oscar®-winner Marion Cotillard (“La Vie en Rose”), Essie Davis, Brendan Gleeson, Michael K. Williams and Oscar®-winner Jeremy Irons (“Reversal of Fortune”). Directed by Justin Kurzel; screenplay by Michael Lesslie and Adam Cooper & Bill Collage.
