After a decade in development hell, the Uncharted movie is finally almost here, and now the trailer has arrived to prove it.
The film version of Sony’s popular Uncharted video game series has seemingly taken an age to make it to the screen. Over a decade of development has seen a host of directors come and go, with filmmakers as varied as David O Russell, Joe Carnahan, Dan Trachtenberg, Travis Knight, Shawn Levy and Seth Gordon all said to be involved at some point.
However, it wasn’t until Zombieland's Reuben Fleischer came on board that the project finally made it into production.
The film will follow a younger version of Nathan Drake than we know from the games, with Tom Holland portraying the adventurer. Mark Wahlberg will play his mentor, Sully, whilst Antonio Banderas, Tati Gabrielle and Sophia Ali also feature.
Uncharted is scheduled to be with us on February 18th, and marks what Sony are hoping is the first success in a string of adaptations from their PlayStation gaming brand, including a film version of its samurai action epic, Ghost Of Tsushima.
Holland may make a great Spider-Man, but you can get your first proper glimpse of him as Nathan Drake in the trailer below, ahead of the film’s release in February.
