In the long history of video game film adaptations, "Uncharted" is a pretty neo -offensive example. Of course, there is only a critical score of 41% of "wounded tomatoes", but there is also 89% of the audience. Dedicated fans of "playing" games (guilty) may have some problems with how certain characters are written and presented, but the film was a clear pleasure with more random fans or movie films that did not play matches.

Uncharted has also been a financial success, earning over $ 400 million worldwide on a fairly modest budget for blockbuster action-adventure film of just $ 120 million. And it was all near the wake of the Kovid-19 pandemic, I warn you.

All those points are quite directly in the sequel, but a few years after the first movie came out, there was little word for tracking. Then, in 2024, Sony Pictures announced that it was officially developing "Uncharted 2." However, while the film is developing, they may spend a few years before doing so in theaters.

Here's what we know so far about the Uncharted sequel.

Sony has confirmed the work of the Cineeurope 2024 "Uncharted 2", but discussions seem to happen much before. "We had a really good time with that movie," said producer Charles Roven Hollywood reporter Almost a year earlier in August 2023. "The fans really liked the film, and people who knew nothing about the game really liked the film. So we definitely ask for another of them." Then, in December 2023, Mark Walberg said Directly That "someone wrote a script and they are still working on it."

It seems that all that development work was productive. The first film was the inaugural project of PlayStation Productions, a division aimed at adjusting different Sony Franchises for Film and Television. From "Uncharted", the studio is also included in films such as "To Dawn" and depicts "The Last of Us" and "Twisted Metal", with more adaptations of games like "Ghost of Tsushima" and "Horizon Zero Dawn" on the road. It is not clear from now that we can expect to see the Uncharted sequel during that period.

While the film is confirmed to be in work, there are a number of problems with scheduling that can keep "Uncharted 2" away from real production for some time. The biggest problem is Tom Holland, who now has a pretty full plug.

"We are working on a script," said producer Charles Roven The deadline In December 2024, "But we'll have to wait now for Chris Nolan's film made by Tom and Zendaya." That would be "Odyssey", which recently missed a classic trailer for Nolan's teaserAlthough the film will not arrive in theaters by July 17, 2026. "And then immediately after that, (the Netherlands) and Zendaya make" Spiderman "," Roven added.

MCU Spider-Man's fourth movie, "Brand New Day", Also produced by Sony Pictures is currently scheduled for a theater edition on July 31, 2026 - just two weeks after the Odyssey premiere. However, after that, the Netherlands may have time in its busy schedule to start working on "Uncharted 2." It will put the film sometime in 2027 at the earliest, although it is impossible to say with certainty at this time.

Tom Holland clearly returns to repeat the role of happiness hunter Nathan Drake in "Uncharted 2", and Mark Walberg also said he would return as a mentoring figure Victor Suli Sullivan. And this time, if you need to trust the post-credit scene from the first film, it will have proper face hair.

"I just got a call today in what they got the script," Walberg said Rant on the screen Back in February 2024. "I can't grow a real beard and a mustache, but they said," Start growing your mustache. Takee lasts for a while. "" As for the story of the story, however, the actor kept his mouth closed.

Of the other actors in the first film, they are likely to return to Sofia Ali as Chloe Fraser. Chloe is a repetitive character during the games, and throughout Nate's life in Canon, so while they meet for the first time in "Uncharted", it will make a lot of sense to return.

We still have no details of the story of "Uncharted 2", or whatever it ends, but video games can give us a decent idea of what kinds of adventures they can come from. The first film was the original story that took certain ideas and set pieces of games (namely the cargo sequence from "Uncharted 2: Drake's Deception"), but mainly did its job. To make that sense, the story was essentially a prophecy, showing how Nate and Suli meet and their first adventure together.

That said, the backstew for the icon duo is very different in the games, so the film version has already made some major changes. It remains to be seen whether the next film will take a more direct narrative inspiration from the games - such as involving the search for El Dorado from the original "Uncharted" or the search for Shambala from "Uncharted 2: Among the thieves." My assumption would be the same basic structure as the first film, with a new story of a similar style that takes some ideas for pieces of source material.

Characteristically, the main franchise, Elena Fisher (played by Emily Rose in the games), seems to be Chile. There is also room for other characters for favorite fans like Eddie Raja, or Nate's older brother, Sam, who plays a key role in the first film, but stays out of the picture (though he plays Rudy Pankow in retrospectives).
