News Assassin’s Creed The Cast for the Assassin’s Creed Series Continues to Grow The Netflix series is set to start filming in Italy next year By Vanessa Armstrong | Published on December 15, 2025 Photo: Netflix, FX on Hulu Comment 0 Share New Share Photo: Netflix, FX on Hulu The live-action series adaptation of Assassin’s Creed continues to move forward at Netflix. We recently found out that Eden actor Toby Wallace would star on the show. And even more recently, we learned that Lola Petticrew (Tuesday, Say Nothing) would also lead the series with Wallace. Today, one more name has been added to the roster. According to Deadline, Zachary Hart has joined as a series regular. Hart’s previous credits include one-episode stints on shows like The Witcher: Blood Origin, Masters of the Air, and Slow Horses. The roles he and his co-leads are playing, however, remain unknown. One thing we do know is that the show will start shooting in Italy next year, and that Italy will serve as the setting for the show, although the exact time period(s) we’ll see are uncertain. The Ubisoft video game franchise has some convoluted lore, but the crux of it is that there are two factions who have battled each other for centuries over whether humanity should have free will. Part of that battle involves finding and wielding “pieces of Eden,” which are remnants of technology from a technologically advanced species that lived on Earth before humans. It also involves running over a lot of rooftops and certain people (the Assassins) using technology to “travel” back in time to relive the lives of their ancestors and find the aforementioned pieces of Eden (just go with it). No news yet on when the show will make its way to Netflix, and hopefully we’ll get some glimmers on the plot and/or who these actors are playing before then as well.
