In this episode of Geek Freaks Headlines, we dive into the newly greenlit Assassin’s Creed live-action series from Netflix. Host Frank Lourence shares updates on the show’s long development journey, breaks down the creative team behind the project, and gives his thoughts on which Assassin’s Creed storylines deserve screen time. With Roberto Patino (Sons of Anarchy, Westworld) and David Wiener (Halo, Fear the Walking Dead) leading the charge, hopes are high for a true adaptation win. Frank also teases his latest interview with actor and producer Chris Maher, now live on the Geek Freaks podcast.
