Assassin's Creed Begins is a 2026 science fiction action film directed by Joseph Kosinski and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and Gore Verbinski from a screenplay by David S. Goyer and Verbinski based on the Assassin's Creed video game franchise. A co-production between Legendary Pictures and The Stone Quarry and set in the same universe as the games, it is the first installment in the Assassin's Creed film series and a soft reboot of the 2016 film Assassin's Creed, which was also set in the same universe. The film stars Sasha Calle and Dove Cameron along with Hugh Jackman, Michael Shannon, Jon Bernthal, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Marion Cotillard, Golshifteh Farahani, Nicholas Hoult, Christian Bale, Amanda Seyfried, and Forest Whitaker. It follows two romantically involved members of the titular Assassin Brotherhood who come into conflict with their creed's oldest enemies, the Templar Order, along with the order's most powerful warrior and hunter, Nighthawk. Assassin's Creed Begins was released on December 10th, 2026; it was a financial success, grossing $1.13 billion worldwide against a budget of $351 million, overtaking the previous film, which had failed to break-even. It also received generally positive reviews from critics and audiences, who praised its action sequences, cinematography, direction, story, Hans Zimmer's musical score, visual effects, and acting performances–particularly Calle, Cameron, Jackman, Shannon, along with Cotillard's return as Sofia Rikkin, but criticized the violent content and long runtime of 170 minutes. A sequel was announced and is set for release on December 8th, 2027.
