From Peter to Nate real quick.
After being stuck in development hell since 2008, and no less than seven different directors, the film adaptation of Naughty Dog’s hit action-adventure video game franchise Uncharted has finally started preparing for production today.
This was confirmed by an Instagram post from English actor Tom Holland, who plays protagonist Nathan Drake in the movie. Holland posted a photo of what appears to be the backrest part of one of those typical film cast and crew foldable chairs. The name “Nate” is printed in red letters, similar to the rugged font style of Uncharted’s text logo.
