Uncharted Film In Development, Uncharted 3 Inevitable

Hot off the heels of Uncharted 2: Among Thieves for the Sony PlayStation 3 comes the inevitable questions about the when-not-if sequel.  When will it be released?  Will it be a PS3 adventure or held over as a launch title for the PlayStation 4?  New York Magazine recently had a few words with Uncharted 2's creative director, Amy Hennig, that raises these questions and then dismisses them with a hand wave, but some interesting bits in which the topics of cinematic gaming, creating the moving train levels from Chapters 13 & 14 of Among Thieves, and making the upcoming Uncharted movie are explored.  Here's a taste:

Columbia Pictures is developing an Uncharted movie. Can you tell us anything about it?
It’s definitely in the works, I can tell people. We’ve got the best possible partners we could in Columbia Pictures. If anybody’s got any fears of them not understanding the material or not loving it as much as we do, they can wipe those fears away, because these guys really get it. I can say from the meetings I’ve had with them so far, their hearts and their heads are absolutely in the right place.

Will Uncharted 3 be a PS3 game, or will it be for Sony's next console?
I don’t think I’m able to talk about any of that right now. On a completely general level, the PS3 is an amazing piece of hardware that both us and other developers are only now tapping into its full potential. There’s a lot of life in that box. That’s really the best answer I can give you.

Personally, I'm expecting that we'll see some sort of stopgap Uncharted side-adventure (hopefully not something as lackluster as "The Young Nathan Drake Chronicles") for the Sony PlayStation Portable before we get to the actual Uncharted 3 in 2012 or so to tie-in with the Uncharted film as part of a last great hurrah for the PS3, but that's just my own unsubstantiated theory.

I don't think there's an actor that deserve to play Nathan Drake. No one can make him look as cool as his CG model.



           

Hope they do a good job. Could be the best movie game combo ever.



I hope so too. Im loving the series.



Atleast it's sony making it.. and since even naughty dog seems somewhat excited over it.. :p Yea it might actually be good.

 

It also seems like they have atleast some .. influence over it.

Nathan Fillion = Nathan Drake

That is all.



                            

Who do you think would be good as Nathan Drake? How's Tom Cruise? Or Collin Farell?

David Boreanaz

Has the same type of humor, is a great actor.

 

Well either him or

Nolan North

who drake is based on and who acts drake in the games.

 

 

I sort of think it'd be more cool if they made it cgi though.

I'm glad that ND are excited about it, that means that at least something is going right. The movie might even be a good addition to the series.
