Three new pictures of Michael Fassbender in Assassin's Creed pack a mean punch and a mighty swing.

New shots released by Empire and Entertainment Weekly reveal the dual roles that Fassbender plays - as both Callum Lynch and his Assassin ancestor Aguilar.

Three striking previews of the video game adaptation juxtapose Callum's dimly lit and grimy holding cell with the majesty of 15th century Spain.

In the Assassin's Creed movie, Callum must gather enough knowledge about the ancient Assassins to defeat their rivals the Templars once and for all.

Reuniting with Fassbender for Assassin's Creed is his Macbeth co-star Marion Cotillard, with Jeremy Irons as the shady boss of Abstergo Industries.

Assassin's Creed is currently scheduled to reach US and UK cinemas next Christmas.
