Uncharted Movie No Longer Has A Release Date
Coming Soon has learned that the film, set to be written by Joe Carnahan and released June 30, 2017, has been pulled from Sony’s release schedule with no new date in its place.

Setting those wheels in motion hasn’t been easy, of course, with Uncharted in particular suffering from a number of creative turnovers – at one point, Mark Wahlberg, David O. Russell and Baywatch helmer Seth Gorden had been attached to the video game adaptation.
In late July it was confirmed The Grey writer and director Joe Carnahan would pen the script for the Uncharted movie, although it didn’t appear he’d be helming it.
Earlier this year Naughty Dog‘s Neil Druckmann explained the developer has only been “somewhat involved” in the development of the Uncharted film. We can’t assume they took it off the calendar for the worst reasons. After years of the project floating around Hollywood aimlessly since its initial announcement in 2009, Carnahan’s arrival to the film was thought to be a sign that it was finally moving forward after several directors committing to and subsequently leaving the adaptation.
I still think Carnahan is ideal fit for this series, which followers a professional thief named Nathan Drake as he embarks on a series of Indiana Jones-esque adventures around the world, most of which conclude with him discovering a secret city of some kind with a supernatural twist. “If you get that core right, there’s a chance it could work”. It’s possible that the Uncharted movie has simply been met with another delay, but until Sony Pictures releases an official statement, fans hoping for Nathan Drake on the silver screen will be fearing the worst.
