COMPETITION: Win tickets to see Michael Fassbender kick ass in Ireland’s first screening of Assassin’s Creed

Eoghan Doherty

It’s time to make history… and win some cinema tickets.

Remember that time you looked into your family history and discovered that your great-great-great-great granny’s second cousin was the man who invented Clippy, the really annoying office assistant from Microsoft Office?

Yeah, that was pretty embarrassing for everyone involved.

Michael Fassbender, however, is much, much cooler than that.

The Irish actor is Callum Lynch, the man who’s bloodline can be traced back 500 years to the supremely-skilled and highly-secretive Assassin’s Creed.

Through a revolutionary technology that unlocks his genetic memories, Fassbender’s Lynch is able to experience the adventures of his ancestor, Aguilar, in 15th Century Spain, after discovering that he is descended from a mysterious secret society known as the Assassins.

Armed with this knowledge and incredible fighting abilities, Lynch is able to take on the oppressive and powerful Templar organisation across two time periods.

Plus, he can jump off really, really tall buildings and make it look easy.

To mark the release of the hugely-anticipated cinema adaptation of Assassin’s Creed, we’ve teamed up with the deadly team (but not deadly in a deadly assassin kind of way) at 20th Century Fox to give away tickets to the first screening in Ireland, taking place in The Savoy in Dublin on Tuesday 20 December at 7pm.

You and a very lucky friend will get the chance to see the film in 2016, whereas the rest of the country will have to wait until the film’s official release on 1 January 2017.

Think about it, that’s a whole year after you! (It’s obviously not, but just go with us on this one.)

All you need to do to be in with a chance of winning the tickets is answer the very simple question below…
