So, get this—Matt Ryan, you know, the dude who brought Edward Kenway from Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag to life? He just casually dropped a bombshell that’s got fans buzzing again about this 2013 swashbuckling adventure. Picture it: a convention signing—autographs flying, smiles everywhere—and Ryan, probably feeling the vibe, lets slip something juicy. Fans went wild thinking, “Oh snap, could this mean a remake or remaster is on the horizon?”
But there’s a twist, of course. Turns out Ryan might’ve overstepped. Ubisoft, the big honchos behind Assassin’s Creed, apparently weren’t thrilled about his little leak. Rumor has it they hit him with a “watch it or else” kinda threat, y’know, legal action and all that jazz. It’s like, one minute you’re having a casual chat, and the next, you’re caught in the storm.
Over on TikTok, user kylo_hd659 caught this exchange on video at Comic Con Manchester. Just your typical scenario: Ryan was relaxed, chatting away, and—surprise!—being recorded. When the Black Flag topic popped up, he seemed blindsided, realizing a bit too late what was happening. Can you imagine? “Oops, I said too much,” vibes all around.
He literally pointed at the camera, a bit like, “Yeah, not falling for that one again.” Probably his way of saying, “Let’s not poke the Ubisoft bear.” We’ve nudged Ubisoft for a word or two on this whole debacle. If they spill anything, we’re on it like a kid on candy.
Now, switching gears a bit—Ryan’s not dived back into the gaming seas since Black Flag. Instead, he’s been rocking it as John Constantine, especially with those DC Comics projects. Live-action, animated—he’s been everywhere. Seriously, James Gunn, if the DC Universe needs a sprinkle of magic, Ryan’s your guy. Just think about it, okay? Thanks much.
