Forums - Sony Discussion - Uncharted To Become “Film Franchise" Says Movie Producer.

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves was one of the movies games that really made some of Hollywood’s productions look silly. It was put together in such an proper and well thought out fashion that the producers responsible for making the movie feel pressured to guarantee an stellar, award winning effort.

Ari Arad, a Hollywood film producer is the guy responsible for making that happen. But despite the pressure, he feels that the game has so much depth that, just like Indiana Jones, it’ll become a “Film Franchise”. 

Ask by Gamepro Magazine whether he thought that would happen he said, “I would imagine it would eventually become a film franchise.”

“I don’t think we’re going to get sick of telling [stories about Drake] anytime soon.”

He continued: “Drake is such an iconic Hero who is exactly the kind of character you build multiple movies around, like James Bond or Indiana Jones.”

I think the man is right. Naughty has really done a masterfully job, thus far, with Drake.

I think films based on the Uncharted games would do great in the box office as did the Tomb Raider films.

A movie based on Uncharted could be a #1 movie and bring in a lot of money. I think that Sony should produce the film just like did with the Spiderman films.

I don't know what to think of Ari Arad.

He worked on both Punisher movies, Iron Man, Ghost Rider and The Incredible Hulk.

I hope they know what they're doing.



If there is a Uncharted film franchise in development, it would only make sense for Sony Pictures to produce the film since the game is made from the same company.

But Sony IS producing the movie. They hired Ari Arad to do the movie.

Well he is right but only if they choose the right actor to play as Nathan Drake,  if they dont cast him correctly it could be very bad.  They should actually get some of the MOCAP actors to play as their respective parts.  Sully and Elena Fisher for starters



I can't think of anyone that can play Nathan Drake.

How about Nathan Fillion?



Hmmm... so long as it is primarily a game franchise, made by Naughty Dog. I don't want the Uncharted name to be ruined by films
