Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Sony has officially confirmed that Uncharted 2 is in active development – and it’s the perfect opportunity to make the adaptation that the first Uncharted movie should’ve been. It’s hardly surprising that Sony is working on an Uncharted sequel. The first movie was a major box office success despite its mixed reviews, and Tom Holland is one of the biggest stars working today thanks to his tenure as Spider-Man.
Sony's Confirmed Uncharted 2 Should Follow The First Game Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is the perfect template for an action-adventure movie Close Rather than just making a straightforward adaptation of the first game, the Uncharted movie decided to come up with its own story. It cobbled together some memorable set-pieces from the games, like Nate hanging from a cargo plane as it hurtles towards the ground, but it ended up just playing like a generic action-adventure movie.
This official origin story is much more compelling than the new origin story that the movie came up with. The movie randomly turned Nate into Tom Cruise in Cocktail. He’s a bartender at a fancy bar in New York City who uses his sleight-of-hand skills to mix drinks and pickpocket customers. Sully tracks Nate down and recruits him like Nick Fury choosing a new Avenger. If the filmmakers wanted to start with Nate’s origin story, they should’ve at least used his actual, canonical origin story.
