Ubisoft, Netflix Share Early Look at ‘Splinter Cell: Deathwatch’ in Annecy’s First Work-in-Progress Session of 2025
Netflix's 'Splinter Cell: Deathwatch' revives Ubisoft's stealth-action franchise in a gritty, realistic animated series, starring Liev Schreiber.
An Ubisoft TV & Film Division project co-produced by Æsten and Fost Animation studios, the series dives deep into what made the “Splinter Cell” franchise successful: gritty realism, a stealth/espionage setting and geopolitical warfare. The French studio, which had already launched another franchise based on Clancy’s “Rainbow Six,” captivated the video game community with harsh, riveting infiltration-based gameplay infused with geopolitical warfare and a highly cinematic approach. Along with an older version of Splinter Cell’s iconic hero Sam Fisher, voiced by Liev Schreiber, the team led by directors Guillaume Dousse (“Flee”) and Félicien Colmet-Daâge (“The Summit of the Gods”) will take the audience into a near future where authenticity is key in bringing this universe to screen.
