Uncharted film sequel in development, Sony Pictures confirms
Sony Pictures Entertainment has confirmed that an Uncharted film sequel is in the works.
The news was shared by Variety last night, after Sony made mention of the Uncharted sequel at CineEurope 2024.
The first Uncharted film released back in 2022, starring Tom Holland as treasure hunter Nathan Drake and Mark Wahlberg as his mentor Sully. While the film received mixed reviews on its debut, with words such as “tedious” and “colourless” being bandied around, it still managed to do well enough at the box office. It opened at the international box office to a respectable $21.5m from 15 overseas markets.
Soon after its cinematic debut, Sony Pictures boss Tom Rothman declared Uncharted a “new hit movie franchise for the company”. So, where could the Uncharted film series go next? Please be aware of spoilers for the Uncharted film and game series below.
The first film served as an origin story for Nathan Drake, introducing him to both Sully and Sophia Ali’s Chloe Frazer. Elena Fisher – Drake’s main love interest from the video games – was noticeably absent from the 2022’s release, so it would seem likely that she will be introduced in some form for the sequel.
