Most fans of the Uncharted franchise are probably taking a "I'll believe it when I see it" approach to the long-gestating film adaptation. First announced way back in 2009, the Uncharted movie has been trapped in development hell ever since, frequently gaining and losing writers, directors and actors over the years.
Luckily, there's been some new progress on the Uncharted front. Spider-Man: Homecoming star Tom Holland has been cast as Nathan Drake, with the film now billed as a prequel to the main Uncharted saga. It's good to see the movie gaining some traction again, but we're not going to get our hopes up just yet. Check out this breakdown of all the fits and stops the project has experienced over the years and you'll understand why we can't be optimistic just yet:
As it stands now, the Uncharted movie will be directed by Shawn Levy (Stranger Things) and features a "monstrously cool script" by Joe Carnahan (The Grey). For more on this latest bit of Uncharted news, check out our thoughts on why Tom Holland is such an inspired choice to play Nathan Drake.
Uncharted isn't the only video game movie to gain new momentum in recent days. Constantin Films is rebooting the Resident Evil franchise for a planned series of six films, and The Conjuring's James Wan is attached to produce the first of these new movies.
