The plot follows Drake, who is recruited by Sullivan to find the treasure of the Magellan expedition. However, they must race against the clock to beat corrupt billionaire Santiago Moncada, played by Banderas, and mercenary leader Jo Braddock, played by Gabrielle.
Uncharted’s development began in 2008 with producer Avi Arad working with Sony Pictures to develop a film adaptation of the game franchise. However, it faced various challenges and delays, with multiple directors, screenwriters, and lead cast members attached at different points. David O. Russell, Neil Burger, Seth Gordon, Dan Trachtenberg, Shawn Levy, and Travis Knight were initially signed to direct, while Wahlberg was set to play Drake in early development.
Holland was eventually cast in 2017, and Fleischer was hired as the director in early 2020. The filming started in March 2020, but the COVID-19 pandemic halted it. It resumed in July and was completed in October, with locations including Boston, Barcelona, New York City, and Kiamba.’
