Michael Fassbender is having a booming career with 12 Years A Slave and the summer blockbuster X-Men Days of Future Past on the way. Along with an adaptation of Assassin’s Creed currently in development and a possible return for a Prometheus sequel. While The Counselor is floundering at the box office, it’s not going hurt Fassbender’s options by any means. His supporting role in 12 Years A Slave could eventually earn him awards consideration. Including a Best Support Actor Oscar nomination.
