What is the name of the Assassin's Creed film released in 2016?

The film released in 2016 is titled Assassin's Creed.

Directed by Justin Kurzel, Assassin's Creed stars Michael Fassbender as Callum Lynch and Aguilar de Nerha. The story uses the series' Animus concept to connect a modern character with an ancestor who lived during the Spanish Inquisition. Marion Cotillard, Jeremy Irons, and Michael K. Williams also appear in the cast.

The film was produced as a cinematic adaptation of Ubisoft's video-game franchise rather than as a direct retelling of one specific game. Its historical sections are set in fifteenth-century Spain, while the modern storyline takes place around the Abstergo organization and its research program.

The movie premiered in December 2016. It received mixed reviews and earned less at the global box office than its production budget and marketing costs combined. The title is easy to confuse with game subtitles such as Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla.
