At last, we finally get to see what Nathan Drake and co. look like in the upcoming Uncharted film. Although, the following images may disappoint hardcore fans of the games. At least, in the Sully department.
This bit of news about Uncharted came to us courtesy of JoBlo.com. Unfortunately, it seems that JoBlo.com aren’t actually allowed to show the actual footage from CinemaCon. It’s not just them though. No one else as of this writing has any of the footage up. All they have is description of the footage. JoBlo.com describes the footage as having both Tom Holland as Nathan “Nate” Drake and Mark Wahlberg as Victor “Sully” Sullivan present in the footage. Apparently, the camera focuses on Holland rather than Wahlberg, keeping the focus of the footage on the main protagonist. Which fits what we know of the games, since Nate is the main hero, and Sully is his mentor figure.
Fortunately, JoBlo.com does anticipate that we’ll soon see a full trailer for Uncharted. They believe that the footage they saw at CinemaCon will be used in the trailer. They give no timeline, of course, other than soon. We’ll just have to wait for word from Sony to confirm if this is true or not.
Uncharted: Something Not Quite Right About Sully
Eagle-eyed fans of the original Uncharted games by Naughty Dog will notice that something appears to be a bit…off about Sully’s appearance in the still image above. To be clear: Sully is the guy on the left, played by Mark Wahlberg. What could it be…oh, yes. His mustache. You know, his iconic one that he has in every single game?
Fans of the Uncharted games might be really worried about the disconcerting lack of facial hair on Sully in this still. Strangely, it runs counter to an image Mark Wahlberg himself posted on PSU. The image he posted is a lot more faithful to the game’s Sully.
It’s unclear why the Uncharted footage still shows a mustache-less Sully. JoBlo.com makes no mention of it, whether by themselves or from Sony. We’ll just have to wait for Sony to give us the details later.
Conclusion
Sony revealed footage of the upcoming Uncharted film (starring Tom Holland as Nathan Drake) at CinemaCon. While no one has any of the footage up as of this writing, JoBlo.com anticipates a full trailer will come out soon. We do have a pair of new stills from the footage to show you though. Unfortunately, 1 of the stills shows Sully (played by Mark Wahlberg) without his iconic mustache. Why? Well, I guess we’ll just have to wait for Sony to clear that up. Or wait until February 18, 2022 to see how the film explains the lack of ‘stache.
