Netflix Green-Lights 'Assassin's Creed' TV Series Adaptation

UNITED STATES, JUL 17 – Netflix officially greenlights the first live-action Assassin's Creed series after nearly five years of development, led by creators Roberto Patino and David Wiener under the Netflix-Ubisoft deal.

  • On July 17, 2025, Netflix greenlit a live-action Assassin’s Creed series, the first project under their 2020 partnership.
  • Launched in 2020, the deal between Netflix and Ubisoft cycled through creative teams over five years, with Jeb Stuart attached in 2021, according to Variety.
  • Emmy nominees Roberto Patino and David Wiener will helm the series as creators and executive producers, blending a modern storyline with up to 75% historical settings to dramatize the Assassins–Templars war.
  • Despite the greenlight, it’s unclear if all scripts have been written, Peter Friedlander said, and it’s uncertain when the series will premiere.
  • Although greenlit, the series won’t debut for several years, joining Netflix’s hot streak of game adaptations while a rumored Assassin’s Creed 4 remake is also in development.
