📰 What Happened
Netflix has greenlit a live-action Assassin's Creed TV series after 5 years of development, to be led by showrunners Roberto Patino (Westworld) and David Wiener (Halo). Announced in 2020, the project aims to adapt the popular video game franchise that began in 2007. The showrunners emphasized themes of 'identity, destiny and faith' while focusing on 'power, violence, sex and greed' across different time periods and cultures.
📖 Prophetic Significance
The showrunners' emphasis on 'questions of identity, destiny and faith' across time periods aligns with 2 Timothy 4:3-4's warning about people turning to myths. The combination of Westworld's consciousness exploration and Halo's spiritual warfare expertise points to an unprecedented mainstreaming of alternative spiritual narratives. The stated focus on 'power, violence, sex and greed' across cultures reflects the prophesied increase in lawlessness (Matthew 24:12) through entertainment that blurs historical and spiritual truth.
