Assassin's Creed The Movie Is Coming

Prometheus star Michael Fassbender's production company DMC Film have begun to develop a script based on the popular video game Assassin's Creed.  Fassbender is also expected to star in the film.   No time table for which the movie will be released or which game in the series it will be based on is known yet.  Assassin's Creed is the story of a bartender called Desmond Miles who is kidnapped by a shady corporation and forced to relive the memories of his 12th century ancestor, Ataïr Ibn-La’Ahad. Ataïr was an Assassin who happily stabbed his way to the truth with a big sword and a cool hood, using the unstoppable power of R-trigger+.

First Still From Elysium

Elysium is the follow-up film from director Neill Blomkamp of District 9 fame.  The film stars Matt Damon and the official synopsis is as follows: In the year 2159, two classes of people exist: the very wealthy "Coordinators," people who can afford bio-genetical engineering, who live on a pristine man-made space station called Elysium, built by the Armadyne Corporation, and the rest, who live on an overpopulated, ruined Earth. Secretary Rhodes, a hard government official, will stop at nothing to enforce anti-immigration laws and preserve the luxurious lifestyle of the citizens of Elysium. That doesn’t stop the people of Earth from trying to get in, by any means they can. When unlucky ex-con Max is backed into a corner, he agrees to take on a daunting mission that if successful will not only save his life, but could bring equality to these polarized worlds.

New Walking Dead Game On The Way

Even though TellTale Games will continue to publish episodes of The Walking Dead centered around Lee Everett, Activision will publish a first-person action video game focusing around famous brothers Merle and Daryl Dixon. The game will explore what happened before meeting up with the survivors in Atlanta. Being developed by Terminal Reality, the game is being described as a “haunting, unforgiving quest to make their way to the supposed safety of Atlanta.” Players will have the much-awaited opportunity to control Daryl Dixon as they avoid detection from walkers that use scent, sound and sight to spot you while successfully trying to make your way to Atlanta. The players will have a lot of control as they can decide whether or not to fight the zombies and waste possible ammunition, or just simply sneak by them. In the game, players will have to carefully manage food and ammunition during the trip to Atlanta. This sounds a lot like zombie-epic video game Dead Island. Much like TellTale Games' The Walking Dead, you will encounter "a slew of characters". Should you trust these characters? Should you take them with you for the ride? That is completely up to you. Click this link to check out the official site. The Walking Dead will release in 2013 for Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and PC.

New Details For The Walking Dead Season 3

     The highly anticipated 3rd season of The Walking Dead hits television screens this October and Entertainment Weekly has new details on the show!  The entire landscape has fallen to zombies,” says Mazzara of the start of season 3. “The entire world has collapsed, the apocalypse has taken over, the zombies have taken over, there’s no safe place. And I think in the past our characters thought they could find some safe harbor, and now there’s just no good hiding place at all.”
Wow. That sounds like a major bummer. Will a certain prison turn into their salvation? And what can we expect of the katana-sword wielding Michonne? “Just like in the comic books, she is a badass and she hates the walkers more than anything else,” Mazzara says. “She treats them with contempt. What’s interesting about the version of this character is she has a lot of trouble fitting into human society. She’s probably better off staying out there alone with the walkers. She’ll be very interesting and a complicated character to bring into the fold, if we even do that. She gives us a lot to play with.”    
     As for The Governor, the suave David Morrissey may seem like an odd choice to play the rough and tumble villain, but Mazzara is confident the British actor can deliver the goods. “David is an incredibly talented actor with a lot of magnetism,” says Mazzara, “and we need somebody who can serve as the foundation, the pillar, for an entire storyline, an entire world of Woodbury. David has the strength to do that. I also think that David’s approach to the character was spot on. He understands that this is an interesting, complex, multilayered, dark figure, and he’s very interested in playing that.”

Marvel NOW! Is Coming

Word has been trickling out about the Marvel universe but now it's official.  Entertainment Weekly has everything you need to know about Marvel's new relaunch coming this Fall in an article found right here.
     The relaunch will branch out of the conclusion of X-Men Vs. The Avengers and here is what Marvel Editor-In-Chief Alex Alonso had to say, “It’s not hype when we say that AvX is the culmination of a lot of stories we’ve done over the last several years.  Characters are redeemed or not. Characters are changed. The X-Men and the Avengers are both repositioned for the future. What better time to shake things up? “
     The relaunch will also be handled differently than DC's New 52 last year with a more gradual roll out..  “I feel that it’s a much more humane approach for retailers and fans to tell them: ‘Look. In the months of October through February, every week you can go into a comic book store and find a few new jumping-on points for the Marvel Universe, a place you’re going to like visiting. Or revisiting. This ain’t a reboot. It’s a new beginning.”  For more on the event read the full article at here!
