Oh boy, where do I even start? So, I was scrolling—procrastinating, really—when I stumbled on this bit about Matt Ryan. You know, the dude who VO’d for Edward Kenway in Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag. Dude gives off serious “cool uncle” vibes. Anyway, he kinda spilled the beans at some con and hinted—maybe accidentally—that we might wanna dust off our gaming consoles for a little pirate action. A remaster? Redo? Who knows.
But get this: Seems like he might’ve spoken out of turn. Ubisoft, with their corporate-sized frown, apparently threatened legal whatnots once the fan’s video hit the socials. Can you even imagine? TikTok user, kylo_hd659, caught the whole exchange on camera at Comic Con Manchester. Matt, probably feeling all chill and whatnot, didn’t realize he was being recorded. Smooth move (or not).
He actually said something like, “I didn’t know they were recording me,” all casual, but you could sense the internal facepalm. Now he’s tighter-lipped than my grandma at Thanksgiving dinner when someone brings up politics. Not a peep from him now. Must be fun trying to keep secrets when the internet’s watching, right?
And I’m just thinking out loud here… but someone tell James Gunn to maybe cast Ryan in the new DC flicks as Constantine? I mean, come on. It’d be like putting chocolate and peanut butter together—just makes sense. Finger’s crossed for some Hollywood magic.
Anyway, I was saying… oh, right—gaming remakes! We’ll just have to wait and see, I guess. Or, you know, rewind this whole mess and pretend it never happened. The internet never forgets, though. Or forgives.
