When it comes to video game movie adaptations, one project that has been through development hell is that of\u00a0Uncharted<\/em>. The film project based on Naughty Dog’s award-winning franchise (Uncharted 4<\/em> is one of the best PS4 games around<\/a>) has had numerous actors and directors attached (with Mark Wahlberg involved at one point), but has never got off the ground.<\/p>\n

But one man who has always been consistently vocal about being involved is Firefly<\/em> actor Nathan Fillion, who many fans of the Uncharted<\/em> franchise would agree would make a fantastic Nathan Drake.<\/p>\n

Taking to Instagram earlier this week, the actor teased an\u00a0Uncharted<\/em>-related surprise, and today, he revealed what he was hiding: a 14-minute fan-film starring himself,\u00a0Avatar<\/em>‘s Stephen Lang, and a host of other familiar names.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is something I\u2019ve wanted to do, but more importantly, something I\u2019ve wanted to see for a long time,\u201d Fillion said on Instagram. \u201cIf you\u2019ve ever pinned a towel around your neck for a cape, or donned a fedora and nearly put your eye out with a homemade whip, this is for you. Thank you, [Allan Ungar], for letting us all scratch this itch. Thank you, [Naughty Dog], for creating such a wonderful archetype…\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve wanted to do this ever since Uncharted<\/em> first came out in 2007,\u201d said director Allan Ungar said on Instagram. The Canadian writer-director specialises in action films, and has two features (Gridlocked, Tapped Out) to his credit.<\/p>\n
