Development

In October 2020, Ubisoft and Netflix entered a content deal to produce multiple adaptations of the Assassin's Creed franchise, including a live-action series, an animated series, and an anime series.[1] Jeb Stuart was initially attached to write the live-action series,[2] but by January 2023, he had departed the project.[3] In July 2025, Netflix greenlit the series with Patino and Wiener set as creators and showrunners. The series was produced by Ubisoft Film & Television, with executive producers including Gerard Guillemot, Margaret Boykin, Jason Altman, and Danielle Kreinik.[4][5] Johan Renck had been hired to direct episodes of the series.[6]

Casting

In November and December 2025, Toby Wallace, Lola Petticrew, Zachary Hart, and Laura Marcus were cast as series regulars.[7][8][9][10] In January 2026, Tanzyn Crawford joined the cast as a series regular.[11] In March 2026, Noomi Rapace, Ramzy Bedia, Sean Harris and Corrado Invernizzi joined the cast in recurring roles while Claes Bang and Nabhaan Rizwan were cast as series regulars.[12][13] Later that month, Sandra Guldberg Kamp, Youssef Kerkour, Mirren Mack and Louis McCartney were also added to the cast, while confirming filming to have begun and the time period of the series.[14]

Filming

Principal photography began on March 10, 2026, in Italy, the setting for the series.[15][16] Filming will primarily take place at Cinecittà Studios in Rome, and is expected to last seven months, wrapping in mid-October.[14]
