Assassin’s Creed Syndicate Cinematic Trailer

Check out a new cinematic trailer for Assassin’s Creed Syndicate.

Info:

Assassin’s Creed Syndicate is the newest installment in the blockbuster Assassin’s Creed franchise, which will be available worldwide on October 23 for PlayStation 4 computer entertainment system and Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft. The Windows PC version will be available this autumn.

Developed by Ubisoft Quebec in collaboration with eight other Ubisoft studios, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate is an epic single player experience set in London during the height of the Industrial Revolution, an incredible age of invention that transforms the lives of millions. During this time, the gap between the poor and the rich expands exponentially, making workers’ lives little more than legalised slavery. The lower classes fight for survival by forming a new kind of family – gangs – and adapting to life in the criminal underworld. Players will embody both Jacob Frye and Evie Frye, twin Assassins raised to follow the Creed. Jacob, a determined, hot-headed and rebellious leader of an underground gang, is vastly different than his sister Evie, a master of stealth and control. Together, Jacob and Evie team up to challenge rivals, plutocrats and Templars alike to free the masses from poverty and corruption, and, ultimately, wrestle back control of London.

In Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, players explore the largest, most modern open-world city ever created in an Assassin’s Creed game. The fighting is more brutal than ever, as players combat rival gangs and grow their sphere of influence throughout London using new weapons, including brass knuckles, a kukri knife, a revolver and the Assassin’s gauntlet. Assassin’s Creed Syndicate also includes innovative navigation and transportation throughout the open world, including a rope launcher for scaling tall Victorian buildings, zip-lining from rooftop to rooftop or performing aerial assassinations, and horse-drawn carriages and high-speed trains for free-running, tracking down enemies or escaping after daring raids.

HITMAN will see players perform contract hits on powerful, high-profile targets in exotic locations around the world, from the highly fashionable Paris and sunny coast of Italy to the dust and hustle of the markets in Marrakesh in this creative stealth action game.

“This is a true HITMAN fantasy, a highly challenging, thinking person’s game where creativity is rewarded,” said Christian Elverdam, Creative Director, Io-Interactive. “You have the power and intelligence of Agent 47 at your fingertips and it is your choice whether to use brute force or orchestrate a genuine masterpiece of assassination.”

“This is new ground for HITMAN, coming out digital first enables us to do something new, bold and exciting,” said Hannes Seifert, Studio Head at Io-Interactive. “We are building a live, expanding and evolving world of assassination where we continuously develop the game, listening closely to the players as we release new locations, missions and hits as soon as they are ready – where $60 and not a dollar more gets you full access to the experience.”

HITMAN will begin on December 8th, evolving and deepening over time, with this initial storyline concluding in 2016.

“This game marks a new direction for the studio,” continued Seifert. “With HITMAN, we are not only embracing our core fans in a new way by bringing them closer to the development than ever before but we are also laying the foundation for a very exciting future by embracing what a live environment can offer a title like this. It is only the beginning for us and for HITMAN.”

New Spider-Man To Possibly Be Named Next Week

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20988:]]Pictured Left: Tom Holland
 

The latest regarding the new Spider-Man is more speculation and rumor, with it now said the new Spider-Man may possibly be named next week.

Deadline calls attention to the recent rumor that Spider-Man is down to two to four actors, with Asa Butterfield apparently out of contention.

While the report doesn’t confirm or deny the rumor, they do state the decision for the new Spider-Man may come next week.

It’s also stated the new Spider-Man used in Captain America: Civil War will be similar to the Marvel Comics storyline in that Spider-Man may be a swing vote when it comes down to super hero registration (or whatever “super hero registration” movie equivalent Marvel goes with). 

The wallcrawler plays a key role in the 2006-2007 Marvel Comics storyline on which the film is based. That story put Iron Man and Captain America on opposite sides of the law, with Tony Stark the public face of a government effort to force superheroes to register with the government, enacted in the wake of outrage over a devastating battle between heroes and villains that left behind numerous civilian casualties. Citing concerns about liberty and freedom, Captain America goes underground and becomes the leader of those heroes who refuse to register. Spider-Man serves as what amounts to the swing vote on the question. At first publicly unmasking himself, as the government becomes more heavily focused on rounding up fugitive heroes, Spidey switches sides. Captain America: Civil War will hit similar beats, and supposedly, Spider-Man is intended to play a role similar to that of the comics, which means Marvel needs him, and quick.

Deadline also repeats the rumor that Marvel and Sony are at a casting standstill over the choice of the Spider-Man actor, though their own report instead mentions Marvel and Sony are “very carefully deliberating over who will play Peter Parker in the Marvel Cinematic Universe for the foreseeable future.”

Regarding Asa Butterfield, Deadline says he is “now apparently out of contention.”

The four actors said to be up to play the new Spider-Man are: Tom Holland, Charlie Rowe, Matthew Lintz and Charlie Plummer.

It’s noted Tom Holland is currently in Atlanta (where Captain America: Civil War is filming) for a golf outing.

Asa Butterfield Said To Be No Longer In Contention For Spider-Man

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20967:]]

It’s now being reported that Asa Butterfield is no longer being considered for Spider-Man.

Apparently the info is coming from a reporter from The Wrap that was the same one to state he was 95% certain the new Spider-Man would be non-white.

However, every actor said to be up for the role by the Hollywood trade sites (and The Wrap) is white.

It’s said the list of actors to play the new Spider-Man is now down to Tom Holland, Charlie Plummer and Matthew Lintz — with Marvel wanting Plummer while Sony favors Holland, leading to a casting standstill.

It’s also said that Asa Butterfield went on Reddit and made comments replying to fans about his potential casting, which may be a reason why Marvel let him go.

If I had to guess, I would say that Marvel already has their Spider-Man, and that they have had the actor for a while (à la Benedict Cumberbatch or Chris Pratt). 

The new Peter Parker/Spider-Man is thought to be first appearing in Captain America: Civil War and is said to be wanted on set in July.

Really, nothing has been confirmed by Marvel other than the new Spider-Man will be Peter Parker in high school.

Walking Dead’s Chandler Riggs Not Playing New Spider-Man

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20965:]]

With Marvel searching for a new Spider-Man, it’s been said they tested a bunch of young actors for the part.

One of those actors looks to be Chandler Riggs, known for playing Carl on The Walking Dead.

Riggs tweeted out the following a couple of hours ago stating good luck to whoever lands the Spider-Man role, which seems to insinuate he tried out for the new Spider-Man, but didn’t get the part.

Riggs also uses the Captain America: Civil War hashtag, which may mean he has insider knowledge that while trying out for the Spider-Man role, he was told it is for Captain America 3.

According to the Hollywood trade sites, Marvel is close to choosing their new Spider-Man with Tom Holland, Asa Butterfield, Judah Lewis, Matthew Lintz, Charlie Rowe and Charlie Plummer said to be the top contenders.

A new Spider-Man solo movie is also being planned for 2017.

Watch: Mark Ruffalo Talks Hulk Vs. Superman With Jon Stewart

Who wins between the Hulk vs. Superman?

That’s a battle long been argued over by comic fans, and a battle that has taken place a few times in the comics with Superman winning the majority.

Now Mark Ruffalo weighs in as the actor recently appeared on Jon Stewart.

In the above video around the 2:30 mark, Stewart asks Ruffalo about Hulk vs. Superman and makes a point that the Man of Steel can fly.

Ruffalo doesn’t seem to impressed as he responds, “Okay,” and mentions if the high-jump was the determining factor then Superman would win.

While unfortunately the two don’t really get into it as Ruffalo is there to promote his latest indie movie, you can check out the Hulk vs. Superman outcome from the comics:

Mark Ruffalo & Robert Downey Jr. Tease Hulk For Captain America: Civil War

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20963:]]

The big question following The Avengers: Age Of Ultron is where did Banner and the Hulk go off to?

But perhaps the bigger question is will the Hulk appear in Captain America: Civil War?

As of right now, the Hulk is the only Avenger that has yet to make a confirmed appearance in another Marvel movie.

No Hulk solo movie is being planned as there is a rights issue over the character having standalone movies with Universal Studios.

Now we hear from Mark Ruffalo who offers hope that the Hulk might be featured in Captain America: Civil War.

While Ruffalo spoke to the Daily Beast stating he still doesn’t know if the Hulk will make an appearance:

“I don’t know! I heard a rumor about that the other day. I haven’t seen a script, nobody’s told me, and I don’t have dates. But I can only hope so!”

Ruffalo does go on to say that Robert Downey Jr. teased the following:

“I was talking to Robert Downey the other day, and he said, ‘Ruffalo! I heard you’re coming out here,’ and I said, ‘OK! I’ll be there,’” said Ruffalo, with a chuckle.

If indeed Ruffalo hasn’t read a script, it doesn’t necessarlily mean the Hulk won’t show up in Captain America: Civil War as the appearance could be small (such as at the end of the film), and it’s possible that Ruffalo might not be appearing as Banner, but the Hulk would be CGI.

Another rumor/fan-speculation going around the net is that the Hulk will appear – as the Red Hulk. Fans of the Marvel comics know that General Thunderbolt Ross is the Red Hulk; William Hurt returns to reprise Ross for Captain America: Civil War.

Another intersting tidbit is the following tweet Ruffalo posted last month:

“Captain America: Civil War” has  a May 6, 2016 release date directed by Anthony and Joe Russo starring Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Elizabeth Olsen, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Frank Grillo, Paul Bettany, Don Cheadle, Emily VanCamp, William Hurt, Martin Freeman and Chadwick Boseman as Black Panther.
