Sony Pictures has announced a Dec. 18, 2020, United States theatrical release date for the movie adaptation of the “Uncharted” video game. Tom Holland (“Spider-Man: Homecoming”, “Avengers: Infinity War”) will take the lead role.
Sony has signed up American filmmaker Dan Trachtenberg, who directed “10 Cloverfield Lane”, to helm the big-screen adaptation of the “Uncharted” video game, developed by the American games studio Naughty Dog and first released in 2007. He replaced Shawn Levy, who stepped away from the project due to scheduling issues.
Tom Holland will play treasure-hunter Nathan Drake. The screenplay, written by Jonathan Rosenberg and Mark Walker, is set to portray Drake’s meeting with his future mentor, Victor Sullivan.
“Uncharted” will face tough competition at the box office, with the “West Side Story” remake, produced and directed by Steven Spielberg and distributed by Fox, due in theaters the same day. HM/JB
