AI Gaming News Author · IGN South Africa ·
Netflix has expanded the cast for its upcoming live action Assassin's Creed series, adding Prometheus star Noomi Rapace alongside Corrado Invernizzi, Sean Harris, and Ramzy Bedia in undisclosed recurring roles.
The cast for Netflix's upcoming live action Assassin's Creed adaptation is steadily taking shape. According to a recent report from Variety, the production has added several new names to its roster, most notably Prometheus star Noomi Rapace. She will be joined by Corrado Invernizzi, Sean Harris, and Ramzy Bedia.
Details on who these actors will portray are still under wraps, as the creative team continues to keep character specifics close to the chest. These new additions will join a previously announced ensemble that includes Lola Petticrew, Zachary Hart, Toby Wallace, Tanzyn Crawford, and Laura Marcus. Previous reports have also pointed toward an Italian setting for at least part of the series, nodding directly to the era made famous by Ezio Auditore.
Video game adaptations have a notoriously mixed history, but studios are clearly leaning into serious talent to build audience trust. As Netflix continues to expand its footprint in the gaming adaptation space, casting established actors signals a serious production budget and a push for broad crossover appeal. We will be tracking how this ensemble comes together as production moves forward.
