Thanks to his amazingly charismatic and rogueish portrayal in Firefly/Serenity, there has been calls by fandom for years for Nathan Fillion to be cast as Nathan Drake, lead character in the extremely popular Uncharted games. After all, game developers NaughtyDog confirmed years ago that Nathan Drake was loosely based on Nathan Fillion.
The only problem is, Hollywood has a long history of totally messing up video game to movie adaptations: Warcraft, Tomb Raider (twice), Assassin Creed, Max Payne, Mortal Kombat, Super Mario. The list goes on.
There are some who say that Fillion is now too old to play the role, especially with an Uncharted movie in development with Tom Holland cast as a young version of the character.
Fortunately, some enterprising individuals have got together and made a 15 min Uncharted fan film, starring Nathan Fillion. It perfectly captures everything that is fun and captivating about the games, and proof that Fillion is PERFECT for the role.
What do you guys think? Have you played the Uncharted games before? Were you a fan of Firefly? Do you want to see Nathan Fillion given the chance to play the role fans have wanted to see for years? And what do you think of the fan film itself?
