Jean-Julien Baronnet, a producer on the Michael Fassbender-led film adaptation of the popular "Assassin's Creed" video game franchise, is taking another property from the gaming world – "Duke Nukem".
Gearbox's Sean Haren says it is ripe for a "Deadpool"-esque franchise: "He [Duke] is a parody of 1980s action heroes and he's like Deadpool in terms of being able to break the fourth wall. We see a lot of humor in his confronting the values of today while trying to save the world."
