Splinter Cell: Deathwatch, the animated series based on Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell, will premiere globally on Netflix on October 24, 2025. Netflix dropped a new teaser trailer on August 21, giving fans a first look at Sam Fisher (Liev Schreiber) in action. He's visibly older, but as stealthy and dangerous as ever. While it's still unclear to viewers what his mission is, Sam says that it's personal.
In this first-ever adaptation of the acclaimed stealth video game franchise Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell, legendary agent Sam Fisher is drawn back into the field when a wounded young operative seeks his help.
Joining Schreiber in the cast is Kirby Howell-Baptiste (Barry, The Good Place). Splinter Cell: Deathwatch is produced by Ubisoft, in partnership with animation studios Sun Creature and Fost. Derek Kolstad (John Wick) is the series' head writer and executive producer, with Guillame Dousse and Félicien Colmet-Daage directing. Ubisoft Film & Television's Helene Juguet, Hugo Revon, and Gérard Guillemot also served as executive producers.
Netflix will also be the home of the upcoming live-action Assassin's Creed series, which was officially greenlit recently.
Stay tuned for the latest on Splinter Cell: Deathwatch and other projects from Ubisoft Film & Television.
