Explained simply
Assassin’s Creed began as a video game series about a long-running conflict between the Assassins, who resist control, and the Templars, who seek influence. Its stories mix invented characters and secret organisations with real historical settings.
This television story is set in Rome in 64 AD, during the reign of Emperor Nero, long before the better-known Renaissance-era character Ezio Auditore. Netflix has described it as a secret struggle between two factions unfolding alongside historical events, with actors including Lola Petticrew, Toby Wallace, Zachary Hart and Claes Bang.
