John Carter flops. What does that mean for Uncharted movie?

Because one of the reason that John Carter did horribly in the box office was that it had a relatively unknown actor as the lead, does that change things for Uncharted movie?

The role of Nathan Drake will likely go to a somewhat of an established bankable star and not a relative unknown or actors with occult followers.  That pretty much rules out Nathan Fillion (who I guess has some support within the Uncharted fan base).  Who do you think will play Nathan Drake?  Unfortunately, Marky Mark seems more likely.  Jake Gyllenhaal?  How about Channing Tatum?

I think Marky Mark would do a much better job than Jake Gyllenhall and Channing Tatum combined.  They are both decent actors, but Jake Gyllenhaal is not a good star character and Channing Tatum can only play in sappy love movies. That's just my opinion.  Tom Cruise wouldn't be bad though.  George Clooney or Alec Baldwin as Sully would be key.
