THE FUSE

Everyone who’s anyone in the gaming industry is currently having their hit game franchise turned into a movie or TV series. For Ubisoft, that means an Assassin’s Creed adaptation on Netflix and a new Far Cry series on FX. The latter is being run by Noah Hawley, whose illustrious credits include Fargo and Alien: Earth. Odds are he’ll make a good TV show, but it’s not clear he understands how the games he’s adapting really works.
