Mark Wahlberg Confirms Starring Role in 'Uncharted' Movie

I'm right there with you. I've not lost all hope/excitement for this movie. This just screams "hey we're making a crappy/generic action/adventure movie, but we're using big names to draw people in anyways". I absolutely HATE this decision. Uncharted the game was awesome. This movie is going to bastardize all that. Thanks a lot Russell.

Not even De Niro or Pesci fit into this. God I hate Hollywood sometimes.

I agree with you guys. I think the only good thing that the big names being brought in for the movie can do is that it will get a lot of sales. Thus, it will bosst Uncharted 3's sales by ALOT. Since, now many more people will be aware of it. But, I hope Sony don't start milking it.

Noooooo!

I don't think even Leo would be that great. Nathan Fillion was perfect for it. Why wouldn't they at least give him a shot?

I mean, even the game developers admitted that Mal Reynolds (Firefly and Serenity character that Nathan Fillion played) was the inspiration for the character of Nate Drake, and a lot of his mannerisms are based off of Fillion' s performance. The man would be perfect for it.

Agreed that Leo wouldn't have been good for this. They needed to go with a unknown or lesser-known. Leo wouldn't be right for the part anyways just cause it's not his style.

I never liked Fillion in the role either. Don't know why, just didn't care for it.

I liked Max Payne movie, as well as Mark's work in it, but he's so not Nathan Drake, neither is Leo, if i was the director i would have gone with an entirely unknown Actor for Drakes role.

But i guess they want to be on the safe side by attaching big names to t he Project.

When have they never. The best thing I guess I can say is that it isn't directed by Uwe Bowell. LOL, we just have to be patient and hope it turns out for the best.
