Netflix grabbed Toby Wallace for a lead role in their Assassin's Creed show, which has been stuck in development hell since they announced it five years back. The 30-year-old actor from Bikeriders and Eden got the green light to join the cast after the series finally started moving forward over the summer.
Production kicks off somewhere in Italy next year, though nobody knows which historical period the show takes place in or who Wallace will actually play. Fans are betting on a Renaissance Italy setting that could bring Ezio Auditore into the mix, but reports say the characters will be different from the games. The big mystery is whether Wallace ends up in the present-day storyline or as the actual assassin doing parkour in the Animus.
