As hard as it is to believe, the long-in-the-works Uncharted movie is, after almost a decade in pre-production and seven directors laters, finally go; and with shooting now underway, we’ve been given a first glimpse of Tom Holland in the lead role.
A movie adaptation of Naughty Dog’s iconic action series was, you might recall, initially announced all the way back in 2009. Since then, six directors have joined and left the project – Travis Knight, Dan Trachtenberg, Shawn Levy, Seth Gordon, Neil Burger, and David O Russell – but a seventh finally stuck in the form of Zombieland and Venom director Ruben Fleischer.
Fleischer’s inherited cast includes Spider-Man’s Tom Holland as a young Nathan Drake and Mark Wahlberg (who was originally set to play Drake in an early, and highly dubious, stab at the project) as his mentor Sully.
