Collider:
Sony Pictures is moving forward with their adaptation of the popular video game Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, as the project now has new writers. Variety reports that Marianne and Cormac Wibberley (National Treasure) will rewrite the script which was previously written by Neil Burger. The Ilusionist and Limitless director signed on to write and direct Uncharted last summer, but Variety now notes that he’s no longer involved with the project. He recently entered talks to direct the young adult adaptation Divergent, so that may have had something to do with his departure.
Hire Nolan, Emily and Richard for the main characters, throw in some big starts mainly as the villains for star power so they can promote the film with them and there good to go.
****Uncharted 3 SPOILERS****
I couldn't shake the feeling that Sully was Nate's father. Marlowe even points out that "Drake" isn't Nate's real last name and that he isn't related to Francis Drake. Then there's the museum heist. Both Sully AND Nate suddenly get the urge to steal that ring? coincidence? Maybe
But Sully did feel,, how should i put this, obligated? to save Nate from Marlowe's mercs at the museum. What drove him to risk his life for some kid. Fatherly instincts maybe? Plus you can't deny that young Sully looks ALOT like Nathan from the nose up.
Not defending O'Russel's script, my eyes threw up while reading it too. I was just stating what i think U3 was trying to tell us. :b
Sully helped Nate just because he was a kid. He wasn't part of Marlowes organization, he was simply paid to find the ring and he did. And I really don't see how is so hard to understand that Sully simply wanted to help out a kid... This kind of stuff happens on movies all the time.
I was watching Raiders of the Lost Ark and Temple of Doom the other day and I don't know what people talk about Drake being a sociopath or having military when Indy is just a university professor and he kills more people than Drake on Uncharted and some of the deaths are like really violent.
