The live-action adaptation of Assassin’s Creed produced by Netflix has finished filming after six years of development. The series now enters post-production focused on visual effects and editing. The project moves away from the Ezio Auditore era and is set in Rome in 64 AD under Emperor Nero. Filming was split between Italy and Bulgaria with Roberto Patino and David Wiener leading the script.
Visual effects and editing: the technical work after filming
The post-production phase will focus on the series’ visual effects and editing. Recreating Rome in 64 AD requires digital work for sets, costumes, and action sequences. Splitting filming between Italy and Bulgaria provides real locations that will be combined with studio effects. Roberto Patino and David Wiener have coordinated the script during development. Netflix has not set a release date or launched a first <a href="https://cinemamix360.com/2026/11/08/new-trailer-the-further-misadventures-of-cliff-booth/” title=”New Trailer: "The Further Misadventures of Cliff Booth"”>trailer, so the schedule remains open as editing progresses.
Six years to film and still no trailer: the Netflix pace
Six years of development to reach filming and now it’s time to wait for post-production. Netflix confirms its commitment to adapting video games with high-level production, although the release still has no specific schedule. Nero, for his part, waits his turn in the release queue while the visual effects do their work. Meanwhile, fans of the franchise can take comfort in knowing that the project exists and that, at some point, there will be a trailer.
