Uncharted: The Movie

Uncharted: The Movie

YES! DO WANT! YES!  Doing my daily routine of getting acquainted with the world outside of the walls of the office, I found a piece of news that made me jump with joy!

Alright, I’m exaggerating but these are some cool news. I’m pretty sure most of you are familiar with the game “Uncharted” and “Uncharted 2“, if you aren’t… well sucks to be you. Seriously. The game stars a smartaleck/adventurer/pirate guy named Nathan Drake. Basically, a Tomb Raider for dudes with the sex appeal for women.

Sony Pictures announced that David O. Russell was signed to rewrite and direct the movie based on the first game: “Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune”.  However, no one has be chosen yet for the Lead Role.

This sparked a frenzy among people who think Nathan Fillion is the best fit for the part. Nathan Fillion (main character of the popular series “Castle”) couldn’t help himself and started campaigning for himself and urge fans to petition him for the part of Nathan Drake. However, this doesn’t mean that if he get 500,000 people (his followers) to petition that he will get the part. There are other fans out there who think maybe Nolan North (the guy who voices the real Nathan Drake) should do the part. Even Hugh Jackman has been named here and there. (Seriously? Him?)

As much as I like Nathan Fillion as an actor, I think the part should go to Nolan North. He is the real Nathan Drake. Hugh Jackman…I have no idea who suggested that, but no. No reason…just no. Nolan kind of looks like Nathan, however, he needs to loose a few pounds. To be fair though, Nathan Fillion does look a lot like Nathan Drake.

What do you think? Leave me a comment below and let me know.. do you think that Nathan Fillion should be Nathan Drake for the movie or Nolan North?

What about Hugh Jackman? (please no.)

Watch the Trailer for the Uncharted 2 Video game:

If you haven’t played the game and you have a Playstation 3, I suggest you do. Is an amazing game.

    We want Nathan Fillion to be cast as Nathan Drake! Yes! NATHAN FILLION is the BEST choice to play Nathan Drake! He’s got action hero written all over him, with the biceps to prove it. He’s extremely bright, clever, funny, sexy, young, hot, and devilishly handsome. And he wants this role as much as we want it for him!

    It’s his turn to be the next powerful leading man on the big screen. We Browncoats and Castillions are determined to get him up where he belongs, and keep him there. He has single-handedly transformed the term “geek” into “sexgod.” He’s an up-and-coming A-list movie star with muscle and heat and he’s a -comin’ to take over feature films! I feel it! Grab him while you can for the Uncharted franchise. Because he’ll also make the best Indiana Jones when they re-boot those movies!!

    In his campaign to be Nathan Drake, we Browncoats and Castillions firmly support our Captain Nathan Fillion!

    wao such powerful enthusiasm towards Nathan Fillion! :P I agree, he is a great actor. he was awesome in FireFly and in Castle. But the voice would feel weird. Nolan has been giving the voice to Nathan Drake for the past 2 games and it would be great to see him voice the real Nathan Drake. however, I think that Nathan Fillion looks a lot more like Nathan drake. Whoever they choose, I think I would be fine. I personally prefer Nola North, but if Nathan gets it, I think he’ll do a great job at it. Let’s just hope the other people involved don’t ruin the movie like the past movies based on videogames. =/
