During the [[2006 Edinburgh Festival Fringe]], Fassbender co-starred with Mel Smith in ''Allegiance'', a play based on the meeting between [[Winston Churchill]] and [[Michael Collins (Irish leader)|Michael Collins]] while coincidentally his mother is great niece of Collins (whom he played).

The British-made Channel 4 film was directed by [[Steve McQueen (artist)|Steve McQueen]].

"There is blood in it, but it's not really a vampire movie," Schumacher says. The first part of the film will be set in 1936, at the height of Hitler's power, and the second half will be set during the present day, the theme being "ghosts of the past rising up to confront today's world."
