Will They Ever Make a "Black Flag" Movie???


That would be so epic. If they did do that, I think Chris Hemsworth would be the perfect actor to cast as Edward Kenway. Thoughts, anyone?

reply

The perfect actor would be Josh Holloway. I don't think they plan on making movies directly based on any AC games, but it would be epic indeed.

reply

They're not going to adapt any of the games on screen. Only the new original stories set in the new original settings.

Nolan, I love you forever!

A serie similar to it was made, the name is Black Sails. It's as good as you will ever get, trust me.

Oh yeah, I heard about that show. I may start watching it and see what I think. Thanks for that suggestion.

reply

You're welcome. Just don't stop at the first couple episodes, the show starts off pretty slowly and unspectacular, setting up things, but it gets much better by epis 5 and the second season is amazing.

reply

It would be amazing but alas, Hollywood hasn't the guts.

What's missing in movies is same as in society: a good sense of work ethic and living up to ideals.

reply

So true! I mean, the least they can do is make some kind of awesome pre-quel to AC3, picking up where the end of Black Flag left off with Edward and his kids in the theatre.
That's what they did in Lineage, which was a pre-quel to AC2.

At least then it would still be considered an "original story," since another user here mentioned they won't make any game stories into movies.

reply

They're not remaking any of the games. The films are a new entry in the present day story line.

Abstergo may at some point send another person into the Golden Age of Piracy era, but they would not be doing the exact same thing they did after Desmond's death.
