Producers want Hugh Jackman to play Nathan Drake

Just read this article on the front page of Kotaku...

I don't like that combination too much. I've always thought either Nathan Fillion or Brendan Fraser would make great Nathan Drake's. How does everyone else feel about Jackman taking on the role?

A good actor is a good actor. I think he would be great but who will direct this movie i ask

Brendan Frasier? :lol: Oh man, if there was one way to make Nathan Drake even more annoying, you've discovered it. raven_squad

Hugh Jackman is a great actor.

Dont know if he'll fit as drake though.

Pick up Carlos Bernard (Tony Almeida from 24).

he doesn't fit. please get rid of him. he'd be better off as a secondary character for an Uncharted movie.

Nolan North (Drakes voice actor) looks like Drake was actually modelled after him, just grittier.

In an older thread of the same subject, someone mentioned Colin Ferrel. And though he is still a pretty poor actor, he's better then most of the riff raff I've heard tossed around for the part. And he definitely can look the role. raven_squad

Hugh Jackman is my favorite actor. I've liked pretty much all his movies. I'd probably have to see an Uncharted movie if he were cast.

LOL, you're right he does look like Harry Flynn.But they will make Drake's Fortune, I think. Now they need to clone the actor who made Golum for those creepy naked guys. According to Nate's journal. Oh and Nate's voice actor is Nolan North. :)

Sigh...Grand another video game movie. Isn't Uncharted 2 enough like a movie? I for one would rather play the adventure then just sit there and see it.GrandJury

I notice people seem to be assuming this movie will be based of the game. That just doesnt happen. Think Tomb Raider, or resident evil, those movies are nothing like the games they are based on.

ive never really seen him in an action adventure type movie, but i think paul rudd would make a good drake.

What's the point? The game is going to be better than any movie ever could hope to be. Haha so pointless.JKnaperek

Ugh, all of those suggestions suck for Drake. Sorry, but I just don't think anyone is going to pull off Drake right. Nobody is going to do him justice.

I freakin' HATE that this movie is being made.

Off the top of my head, Ryan Reynolds would be the perfect "big star" pick to play Drake that I think could do a good job. He definitely has comedic timing and personality and I think he could do Drake justice. Jackman, while a good actor, just doesn't seem to fit. Obviously, I'd love to see Nolan North do it, but we all know that's just not how Hollywood works. Still though, I think Reynolds looks closer and could do it well, even though Nolan North (jokingly) said that he couldn't have the role.:P

reynolds is working on green lantern now, and then x-men origins: deadpool, so uncharted 2 would have to be a loooong way down the pipeline for ryan reynoldsMethodManFTW

Ehh, I didn't know what he's been up to movie-wise. Still, Nathan Fillion would be another obvious choice (to me at least), though I know he's not big enough in Hollywood to get the part.

If he was a better actor, just based on looks, I'd recommend this guy for the part.

NOTE: THIS IS NOT A RECOMMENDATION FOR BEN AFFLECK

Nathan Fillion or Nolan North. Heck, I think it'd be cool if they did the whole movie with the voice actors all hollywood gussied up. Each one of the voice actors looks and sounds like their in game counterparts. Some make up to tweak the looks and viola, a true to life Uncharted live action movie.emitsu97

True. The problem is it wouldn't sell in Hollywood. Me personally? I'd love to see it with all the VAs. Between the mo-cap and other roles they've done in real life they can obviously act.

That is what I hope for as well. Thats really the only way to do real justice to the game. However, like someone mentioned they will probably try to do something as to what was done in Tomb Raider so I guess if the actor was popular enough the movie could turn out alright.

Heck if they want they could bring Jackman, Jolie, Cruise, and Bale in...just make them all the bad guys.

Yeah, but you know that's not gonna happen. My only hope is that if they're gonna do this, they don't sully the good name that the games have already established. I'd hate to see a terrible movie adaptation scare away potential interest in the games for newcomers. It'd also be bad to see people not in the know look at the games and be like, "Oh those are those games based off of that crappy movie with so and so in it," even though the games came first (you know someone, somewhere is gonna do it).

I too enjoyed the Indiana Jones movies and films like The Goonies and whatnot. I just really hope that Amy Hennig has some sort of input on this to stop the movie from potentially sucking.

I wnat Zac Efron :Dryrulez

That would be horrible, he looks nothing like him.
