    Columbia Pictures have announced that a movie adaption of Naughty Dog's Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is in the works. It's being written by Kyle Ward (the man behind the upcoming game adaptations, Hitman 2 and Kane & Lynch) and produced by Charles Roven (Batman Begins, The Dark Knight).

    A year or two ago when the Metal Gear Solid movie was announced I made an extensive list of casting ideas (which was read out on GameSpot's HotSpot podcast by Jeff  when he was still there). So, I figured I'd have a go at Uncharted casting ideas as well. Below you'll see the characters names with the actors I think would be a good fit listed underneath.

    Nathan Drake
    Matthew Fox

    Elana Fisher
    Scarlett Johannson

    Victor "Sully" Sullivan
    Pierce Brosnan (look at him in The Matador - a perfect fit!)

    Gabriel Roman
    Alan Rickman

    Atoq Navarro
    A relatively new/unknown actor

    Eddie Raja
    Amaury Nolasco

    Brosnan and Johannson would be perfect for their respective roles, yes. However, I don't agree with fox as I think he's a really bad actor. My vote goes for either Matthew Mcconaughey or Nathan Fillion.

    I vote for Fillion as Drake, Fox doesnt really have that vibe, that " cool normal guy " effect. 
     
    Anyways it'll end up like all video game movies, nothing to do with the original material so... why should we care? Lets just play Uncharted 2!! :D

    I vote for Nolan North for Drake.....what? He did the voice acting and a lot of the motion-capture for drake, and they modeled Drake after him, I'd say he's a pretty good fit.
     
    Then again, Chris Pine could fit too, he's got the right attitude.....or Nathan Fillion could pull it off too, they certainly sound similar

    The guy that voiced Drake would be perfect but Fox is a pretty good fit too.

    Johansson's too "sexy" for the role of Elena in my opinion. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love Elena, but she's kinda just normal looking isn't she -- which is what makes her attractive. I dunno, I just think Johansson would be too... 
     
    I think they should just use the game's cast. They're all respectable actors, they know the characters, they have the real voices AND they even look like their character.

    And yea I kinda like Fox but... I don't know he doesn't really have that hey I'm cool as ice smooth vibe his acting feels kinda forced but I have only seen him a little bit and most of that was on Lost.
