The games each take place during various historical conflicts, but there is no word as to whether the movie will stick to one time period or have the Desmond character traveling to multiple ones.<\/p>\n<p>Ubisoft will be producing the film in partnership with\u00a0financers New Regency.<\/p>\n<p>Fassbender is pretty much the first creative signed to the project. It has no attached director or screenwriter.
