Uncharted movie still happening

The movie adaptation of action-adventure game Uncharted is still alive, and will allegedly be getting a new director. Seth Gordon, who directed Horrible Bosses and Identify Thief, is the latest name to be attached to the film.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Gordon is "in final negotiations" to direct the Uncharted film. The movie has undergone several director changes in the past, with Neil Burger (Limitless, The Illusionist) previously attached to the film, following David O Russell (Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, Silver Linings Playbook) dropping out of the project. Actresses Amy Adams and Scarlett Johansson were also reportedly considered for the role of journalist/love interest Elena Fisher.

Developer Naughty Dog revealed the latest entry to the Uncharted series in a teaser trailer last year. The game is being developed exclusively for the PlayStation 4. Sony has not yet confirmed a release date.
