Uncharted: Live Action Fan Film

I'm a huge Uncharted fan, I believe the game franchise is one of the greatest ever created through a combination of fantastic stories, voice acting and construction.

For this reason I've always been on the fence regarding a potential film. Yes I'd love to see it on the big screen but I don't want to see it get the mindless Hollywood treatment and be a complete bust.

For as long as I can remember I've said that Nathan Fillion is Nathan Drake. The man not only looks identical to the character but can play both dramatic and comedic perfectly.

The rumours have been flying the past couple of years that it'll happen but Tom Holland will be playing a young Nathan Drake. This to me seems moronic, making Drake Jnr would surely be a straight to dvd spinoff effort and not the focus of a movie franchise?! Surely!?

This fan made film stars the man himself in the lead role and Stephen Lang as Sully. My belief that he truly is Nathan Drake was confirmed, he was perfect.

At just 15 minutes there really isn't much here and it tells the quick story of our hero breaking free of his confines and battling a series of henchmen.

Fillion is perfection, Lang isn't half bad but our Elena? Certainly a weak link.

This live action fan film is fantastic it goes to demonstrate what could be, a potentially outstanding film just waiting to be made. Sadly however, this is almost certainly the closest we'll get.

Essentially viewing for Uncharted fans.

The Good:

Nathan Fillion IS Nathan Drake

Looks great

The Bad:

That simply isn't Elena

It's a tease

Things I Learnt From This Short:

Nothing they ever do with Tom Holland will come close to this

This could make a brilliant television series!

Wow, this was really good. With all the crap movies getting make for Netflix these days I can't believe they haven't made an offer for this movie to be made.

I can say with confidence that almost everyone that played an uncharted game wanted it to become a movie. I've imagined in my head for so long an uncharted movie staring nathan fillion and it finally came true. I loved every second of it. nathan fillion looks sounds and acts just like nathan drake. Please please sony pick up this film for a full release. Your fan base deserves it. I would like to thank nathan fillion and everyone involved in the making of this short film you can see that everyone involved of this production care deeply about this franchise and just wanted to make the fans happy. Thank you so much

Nathan Fillion is Nathan Drake in the flesh! He was born for this role. Ever since I fell in love with the Uncharted games I've wanted an adventure movie like that with a character as likable as Drake, and my first choice was Fillion. I was amazed that they then did this short and got really excited that they'd make an actual movie as a result. To my sorrow, they're rolling out a take on Uncharted with Tom Holland instead.... He may do a good job, but the movie won't be anything like it could have been.

A movie version of Uncharted never seemed like a good idea (the games were already movies), but I can't speak highly enough of this fan film. It gets by on a minimum, so there's no globe-trotting or big explosive set pieces, but it gets the most important thing right: the spirit. And almost all of that is thanks to Nathan Fillion. He gets the humor, Drake's banter, and just plain looks the part. It's like watching Nathan Drake actually get beat up, outrun machine gun fire and settle arguments with his fists. I'll admit I'm not sold on the supporting cast, but when the credits rolled, I was hungry for more. I'd pay cold hard cash to see the full movie.

Make that happen!
