Callum Lynch uses the Animus in the 2016 Assassin's Creed film.
The Animus is a machine that lets a person experience the genetic memories of an ancestor. In the film, the modern-day Callum is connected to the device so the Abstergo Foundation can access the memories of his ancestor Aguilar de Nerha, an Assassin active in fifteenth-century Spain.
The film adapts the franchise's central science-fiction premise rather than directly retelling one game. The Bleeding Effect is a consequence of repeated Animus exposure, not the machine itself. The Apple of Eden is a powerful Isu artifact, and the Observatory is a location and device associated with Black Flag.
