It's being handled by Adi Shankar, producer of the Castlevania series which starts this week on Netflix. Castlevania will be an adults-only affair, with Shankar describing it as "R-rated as f**k."

Not much is known about his interpretation of Assassin's Creed yet, but he took to Facebook to write:

"I’m happy to let you guys know that I’ve selected my next project! I played the first edition of Assassin’s Creed the year I moved to Los Angeles to pursue my dream. At that moment I knew absolutely no one in the industry and could never have imagined that one day Ubisoft would ask me to take the world of Assassin’s Creed and create an original story set in it as an anime series. If anyone tells you not to follow your passion in life they are wrong."

Those interested in seeing how Castlevania fares can tune in to Netflix on Friday.
