Sony's Christmas present to us all is a brand new trailer for Uncharted -- the movie, that is. Co-starring Tom Holland as Nathan Drake and Mark Wahlberg as Victor "Goddamn" Sullivan, the adventure flick is a fresh take on the Naughty Dog universe, with younger characters and a new forgotten treasure to find. This new trailer emphasises the action, showing off some impressive set pieces.
We won't spoil anything so you can go into the video fresh, but it's safe to say PlayStation Productions wants some of the larger-than-life bombast of the games in the movie. There's some ludicrous stuff that should look amazing on the big screen — and yes, as the headline says, there is a brief teaser of Sully's moustache. Well, the start of it, at least. You'll get there, Mark.
Anyway, what do you think of the new Uncharted trailer? Are you looking forward to the film's release in 2022? Grab some popcorn in the comments section below.

I still think this is going to suck royally hard, but I'm just glad they included an original action set-piece of their own. The flying ships thing could be fun.
No big head mode movie poster for the article picture this time? xD
No doughnut drake, no ticket.
Similar to HFW think I’m just going to skip all future media on this and see what reviews are like at launch. Movie trailers have an awful habit of showing the best bits. I’d rather go in more blind.
The Uncharted series is dear to me and I still think this looks awesome.
MUCH better than the first trailer! Better music and editing, looking great! #releasethesullystache
I'll watch it when it comes to Netflix.
Doesn't look too shabby, definitely gonna check it out.
Just watched full movie without paying anything. Props to trailer makers.
@themightyant I just watched the trailer and it's exactly what you just said. Shame on me.
This is much more like it. Looks like they'll hang the story on Uncharted 4's bones. Still terribly cast though.
I still don’t know how I feel about this. The airplane crash scene was great, but apart from that… . Holland & the girl that plays Chloe look way too young. Sully without the stash just feels wrong.
Nathan Fillion should’ve been drake.
@Bamila Commiserations. Only one thing for it, get blind drunk to forget. I raise you a double whisky, merry Christmas
I saw the first trailer which did enough to grab my attention and think "I'll wait for review scores and as long as they're not horrendous i'm in." But it already showed too much.
Sadly far too many Movie trailers nowadays are often a condensed version of the whole movie and spoil the plot and all the best bits. You go to the cinema and you know what's going to happen because you've seen it before. I HATE that.
Similarly for Horizon Forbidden West I've seen enough to know i'm in... unless reviews or launch code is awful. I don't need to see pictures and videos of all the different regions, enemies, skill trees, moveset, upgrades etc. Harder to spoil a game as completely as a movie but it still happens.
Balancing this thirst for information and being surprised is a hard balancing act though.
Since we're among thieves I guess Pirate Bay will be the fitting place to get this movie.
I think this looks like a lot of fun. Clearly it won't be winning any awards, but it looks better than it has any right to be.
And to be honest, after all of the ridiculous rumours over the years, like one scrip being about an antique dealer and stuff, this definitely "looks" like Uncharted.
I love it, looking forward to the scene with the ships very much.
Looks good, can’t wait. My son and I are big fans of the series.
@Fight_Teza_Fight The whole cast in general feels a bit too young. I don't know why they didn't go for a cast that resemble the game characters we know a little more. Everything looks good so far, but I have a hard time seeing the Uncharted characters in that cast.
@Octane Because they want people who've never heard of Uncharted before to think it's cool, and kids will definitely want to see "Spider-Man in that new movie".
@get2sammyb Which is a problem, because that means they care more about making a quick profit, than making an actual good movie. Chasing a crowd that isn't even familiar with the series. Even if true, Uncharted was already 'cool', so I don't understand this casting choice. If anything, this feels a little underwhelming. The only thing that's missing here is Zendaya playing Chloe, and Robert Downey Jr. playing Sully.
Though he would've had a 'stache at least.
@Octane While I get where you're coming from, I'm just not sure I understand why anyone is surprised. Uncharted, as a game, is literally a popcorn flick — a well done one, absolutely, but it's always been about Hollywood bombast.
So the fact the movie is trying to be as commercially appealing as possible... Well, of course it is! It's a popcorn flick with big explosions and people falling out of planes. 🤷♀️
To be honest, I feel like I'm in a minority, but I'm glad they didn't try to cosplay the cast. Holland will be cheeky and witty, which is Drake enough for me.
@Octane truth be told a movie being good isn't dependant on characters looking the same as a computer game. The case may disappoint you but that is a separate issue to whether the movie is any good I think.
It does look like they have taken the characters from an earlier time which may work out well if they end up making more movies and perhaps the characters grow into their gaming time line? Although Marky Mark and Tom Holland look like the type of people who will never age!
@StonyKL he has a good life, most of his roles demand he’s in peak condition I can however see a day he begins to more resemble Mickey Rooney.
@RiceC03 Really sucks that they removed it in 4.
@Fight_Teza_Fight That's actually Chloe?I honestly thought it was someone else cause she doesn't look that young here.
That was a pretty good trailer actually! I don't have high expectations for this but at the very least it looks like a fun watch. And Mark actually looks pretty good with the stache! Wish they would have just had him have it all movie long but oh well. Bring on February!
So Sully, Nat and Chloe and I guess the black girl is Nadine? I hope not! Nadine is badass without that ridiculous hair😵💫And Samuel? So they put all games into one movie? Why not make a trilogy and built up the characters instead of squeezing everything in one installment? Or quadrilogy? 🙃
I hate every single frame of that trailer.
That looks about as far from Uncharted as you can get. I mean Mark Wahlberg...REALLY. Might have well got the Rock to star in it, not like he isn't in every other film released within the last 10 years
I like it I like it I like it! Great way for a new audience to be introduced to Nathan drake and co & it just looks like one of those films that ppl see for action, as long as they make it solid they can franchise the hell out of this
@MyThoughts31 ye the Rock is so versatile he is in all kinds of movies. 😂😂
Im sorry to all the haters but it looks kinda fun it also has Sully with a moustache im certain it was hard to keep that quiet with people complaining about it every second. (dont worry i was one of those people)
I will watch it with my dad i think he is gonna like this one a lot. 😁
Yeah… no. Basically I still can’t forgive them for that truly dreadful Scottish ‘joke’ from the last trailer 😂
I just can't get behind casting a token 12-year-old type character actor as the Nathan. Wallberg would have been a better fit if they were just gonna mashup 4 games worth of adventures into a cookie cutter action adventure movie.
I actually enjoyed the bit at the end with Sully's mustache😂
I'm with @Octane on this. And @Matej, really. The personalities of the cast are really what makes Uncharted, moreso than the bombast and setpieces. And this crew just doesn't have it.
Heck, why not get Claudia to do Chloe? It's in her wheelhouse, nobody can replace her, and she never ages, anyway....
Zach Galafanacas as Sully
The Rock as Drake
I agree with most here, they got the cast wrong. Even in trailer you can see none of them believe in what they're doing. They should have gone for no name actors ala the original Star Wars and been prepared to build a rep on good films. Heck, they could have started with a modest budget and just made sure they got it right.
This just reeks of disappointment.
Well... looking at the acting Tom Holland is looking the part but Mark is Mark, not so much Sully.
Idris Elba as Drake would have pleased IGN
@MyThoughts31 🤣🤣🤣 ikr.
@MyThoughts31
I love Idris as an actor, but I agree with that.
Woke has gotten out of control. There’s nothing wrong with white characters being played by white actors and actresses.
I say this as a person of color.
@KundaliniRising333 apparently Wahlberg was originally down as Drake but Covid filming restrictions meant they said sod it, just go to a secondary school and pick a random kid to be drake.
@TheRedComet last of us, resident evil and Annie are huge examples of this.
@TheRedComet im just waiting for the remake of only fools and horses where Idris Elba plays Delboy and Adil Ray plays Rodney. And it's not a 3 wheel van anymore, but an electric scooter on Bolt.
@MyThoughts31
Witcher is guilty of it too. I like the show a lot, but when they revealed Triss in season one I had to do a double take.
Like Triss is white with red ass hair. Not my skin tone.
It looks fun but the actors seems out of place, it's like I'm seeing tom holland and mark wahlberg adventure rather than nate and sully.
Can't help but be reminded of Pirates of the Caribbean during the flying ships scenes for some reason.
Is this gonna be like the movie where spiderman killed twilight over his sister?
Ugh there's just no creativity left in anything anymore is there? Movies based on games or old franchises, games soon to all be based on licensed properties (just you wait!), and don't get me started on current music.........where was I? Oh yeah, stay away from my booze!
I watched the fan made Uncharted on Youtube again. 14 minutes and a much better Uncharted than this will ever be, Helicopters lifting pirate ships prove that the scriptwriters have no respect for their audience.
@Cherip-the-Ripper @RBMango Also looking forward to the flying ships, and I'm a big fan of the games!
