Alright, so imagine this: I’m at this Comic Con thing, and there’s Matt Ryan just chillin’ at his table, right? You know, the dude who was Edward Kenway in Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag. So, some fan’s chattin’ with him, and all of a sudden he drops a hint like, “Hey, maybe pick up that pirate game again.” Hmm, suspicious, right? Everybody starts buzzing like bees, thinking there’s gonna be a remake or something. But plot twist! Ubisoft wasn’t thrilled. At all. Legal threats flew around like confetti. Yikes.
Some TikTok user, kylo_hd659 (cool handle by the way), caught all this on video at Comic Con Manchester. This whole dramatic scene unfolded by Ryan’s signing spot. Apparently, he didn’t know he was being recorded when he blabbed. Rookie mistake? Maybe. Now he’s zipped up tight, thanks to Ubisoft’s not-so-friendly nudge.
Ryan said something like, “Yeah, I was all chatty, didn’t know I was on camera, and now Ubisoft’s looming over me with a legal hammer.” Poor guy’s playing it safe now, acting all tight-lipped. But hey, with the camera in his face this time, he’s steering clear of more trouble. I guess sometimes silence screams louder than words, right? We shot Ubisoft a message to get their take — hold the popcorn for updates.
Oh, and speaking of Ryan, he’s been doing the John Constantine gig all over the place since Assassin’s Creed days. He’s got that magic warlock vibe nailed down in DC Comics stuff, from Legends of Tomorrow to animated flicks. Here’s a little plea — James Gunn, if you’re revamping DC Universe films, give Ryan a shout. The dude’s got charisma that’s practically spellbinding. Just sayin’.
