The new Uncharted movie, Holland is an interdasting choice, but he fits a younger drake




Marky Mark is sully lmao ... That's an inspired choice, but I was hoping it was J Jonah Jameson... Spidey and him together would have been epic.

In b4 "sjw" jerkoffs

Its a prequel, which is why both are younger. Story based on Magellan, so its not a rehash. Its been in developmental hell for years, not expecting much. But Holland looks good as Drake

I wanted Bruce Campbell or Powers Boothe before he died to play Sully

[Unstumpable]

Seems like a good choice. Fits the look. Have only seen him in spiderman so will be interesting to see how he does at portraying Drake.

[freeburn]

I feel like they are going with younger casting all around for future sequels. He looks pretty good but yeah, younger then I'd picture the character.

[R3L3NTL3SS]

I didn't even know they were doing a movie. Nice! As an Uncharted fanboy, I'll definitely watch it.


Man, I wish ND would do more Uncharted games. I don't know what is about them, but they just do it for me.

[rectifryer]

Tom holland is a fantastic actor. He doesn't really fit but I don't really care .

The obvious choice is that guy from firefly that Nathan drake was modeled after, but such as life.

[ChristmasFnatic]

They are banking on this to be successful and with more movies to come that is why they went for a younger Drake and Sully.

RIP switch!

[ohiostate124]

He is not the right guy for this role. Looks like he is cosplaying.

Wahlberg as Sully? Fuk right off.

Fillion is also almost 50, itd be hard to build action franchise around him at this point unfortunately

He's super old and really has never been an big action star...plus I heard he's a massive jackass

[LovePollution]

No Nathan, no care.

[MrBourbon]

Screwed up the shirt tuck 0/10

[CrimsonSteel]

Looks like Nathan Drake's gender-fluid little brother, "Sage Drake."

Marky Mark is a sh!t choice for Sully, as well.

[Kabamaro]

Why didn’t they just make a game for ps5?

Uncharted in Unreal Engine 5 would have been insane

I just want an Elena in it to make my faps feel less.... less like jerking off to a fictional character. You know exactly what I mean! but it’s a prequel. Chloe can still be cast by a beautiful sexy af actress I’m assuming!!!!!!

[JayJ350]

I'm expecting that to be a B movie on Netflix

[mgftp]

Appears this dik licker is consistently skipping chest day.

[FAPhaggot]

Holland's a skinny little twink; this is stupid. Reminds me of when they tried to get Tom Hiddleston on tech for the King Kong movie.



Chit, you can pretty much see the tech wrecking his hairline right there.

Also, Brie Larson is the biggest bitch on the planet, but her tits in that movie are ****ing phenomenal.

[nkiritsis13]

Hard pass.

It's already been done to perfection, Hollywood:




This just looks like Solo crossed with Sahara.

He is not the right guy for this role. Looks like he is cosplaying.

Wahlberg as Sully? Fuk right off.

Agreed, and it's not because it's "Young Drake," either.

Hollywood does this sh*t all the fukking time these days with casting where legit cosplayers look the part better than whoever they roll out for known characters - regardless of age. All it ends up doing is take anyone who is familiar with the original character out of the movie/show, while the people who couldn't give a damn are just there asking themselves why they aren't watching a better movie.

Using the Solo example again, they screwed themselves right out of the gate by even entertaining the idea that they could find someone who could fill Harrison Ford's shoes, let alone a young actor. What they set out to make was a product that had to conform to a preexisting, beloved character and would be judged by its inability to achieve its nigh impossible task instead of just making anything completely new.

And yeah, it's not just YA Novel Drake that's the only questionable casting choice when they have bloody Mark Wahlberg as someone with as much personality as Sully.

No idea. Probably some twat higher up thought that since Uncharted is so "cinematic" that they should just make a movie.

Except, frankly, Uncharted as a movie isn't exactly going to be blowing anybody's minds on its story alone, and this casting isn't going to have the collective charisma to drag it up from the dregs of, "Another Unnecessary Video Game Movie."

And it's not like anyone's betting on Hollywood at the moment, whereas video games are rising real estate with all the recurring lockdowns.

The idea sounds more like a The Producers style scam more than any sincere effort to make a movie that would even turn out to be a winner with how much they probably spent on the casting alone.

15 minute fan film is better than 95% of movies released in the last decade.

Nathan "The Twink' Drake

[BraneyGumble]

Not a fan, dude's a pasty twink. Interesting how he apparently has two movies - other is Chaos Walking - that have been in development hell for years now.

[Madvillainy]

how are people upset with this, he was easily the most expected as sensible choice. nathan drake isn't arnold, twink mode is fine for that character, especially a younger version. drake is more about agility than strength. holland is also naturally athletic and can do a lot of stunts on his own.

[Deathstroke]

Nathan drake isn’t exactly el macho as much as I love uncharted. Let’s not act like it should’ve been hugh Jackman or Dwayne Johnson lol. I’m just saying isn’t supposed to be some chisled grishold beast.

^ guy above me gets who Nathan drake is

that leads to believe the production company or w/e is bad, how is that Tom Hollands fault lol?

Tom Holland works as the dorky goober teenage Spider-Man, but Nathan Drake is the charismatic lady's man scoundrel with a heart of gold - aka Indiana Jones/Han Solo 2.0 -, so unless they manage to turn it around (unlikely), it's bound to fail.


I get that they're trying to bank on the the mentor-disciple dynamic they had with Tony and Peter and to remake it with Sully and Nathan, but I would be surprised if it worked. Plus video game movies.

uncharted is very similar to indiana jones but i don't think the character is. indiana jones is the gruff, strong-silent type, and drake is cocky/wisecracking which i think holland can pull off. drake is supposed to be a lot more high energy and i think that's what holland is.

"WICKED SMAHT!"

You know, that's not actually so bad .... I think this has a ton of potential. Marky Mark is a solid actor, so is Holland. I think it'll be a stupid albeit fun movie. Cautiously optimistic.

[GolfPants]

I would encourage anyone concerned about this casting to watch The Devil all the Time. Definitely shows that Holland is a talented actor and can play more than the goofy spiderman nerd role. He will do fine as a young Nathan Drake.
