i saw this on facebook yesterday. the dude looks nothing like sam fisher, sounds nothing like him and was only cast (probably) because of batman. they could have used ironside with some make-up and prosthetics. plus he's closer in age.

I like tom hardey but he does not fit sam fisher at all..honestly i can't think of any actor besides ironside that would fit sam fisher. i supose what they could do is have a body actor and never show smas face and have ironside do the voice over it..but then i don't think ironside wants to do anything more with splinter cell.

 

I think that's why the recast sam fisher for the newest game

 

"Michael Fassbender will feature in an adaptation of another of the publisher's major properties, Assassin's Creed."

 

He will either play Desmond or Altair..or perhaps both seeing as Desmond and altair look identicle
