RUMOR: Nathan Fillion is Teasing Nathan Drake (Uncharted) Role (Update: Fan-Film)

[emir]

Holy Ssssmokes... My dream cast is real?

Actor Nathan Fillion took to Instagram this morning to make a cryptic post that seems to be teasing something related to Uncharted.

Fillion posted a picture of rapper Drake and captioned it "Sic Parvis Magna" ("Greatness From Small Beginnings") along with the date July 16. Nathan Drake is the name of the Uncharted game series' protagonist, while the Latin phrase Fillion wrote is the same one that's inscribed on Drake's ring in the game and served as a sort-of motto for the character after he lifted it from real-life British privateer Sir Francis Drake. As such, speculation has run rampant that Fillion might be starring in the Uncharted movie.

[Pein]

He's too old to be drake, make him sully.

 

[Spectromixer]

What about Tom Holland?

 

[A real sad boy]

Nathan Fillion isn't someone you try to build a film franchise around.

 

[KrigareN-]

Ugh.

No.

I thought it was Tom Holland?

 

[MoonsaultSlayer]

Old retired Drake is a lock.

 

[DetectiveKenobi]

He's probably gonna be Sully lol.

 

[Maximus Odinson]

Dream cast? lol this isn't 2008 breh

 

[Protome]

Make the film a sequel to 4, make it Drake passing the torch to his daughter.
Make it the best videogame film.

 

[legacyzero]

YAS

 

[illmatic22]

The Sully to Tom Holland's Drake?

 

[DemonCarnotaur]

I mean if it's about a older Nathan Drake it's a great fir honestly.

 

[Invictus]

10 years ago? Sure...
2018? Ehhhhhh

 

[Slayven]

I am guessing animated

 

[Loxley]

If this is related to the movie with Tom Holland, then I'm guessing he'll be playing Sully.

 

[Sephzilla]

This would have been a good casting 10 years ago

 

[HamSandwich]

So this is what he's doing with no more Cayde-6.

 

[Lackless]

Nathan, stay way from this box office disaster.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Tom Holland is Drake, FYI. Nathan will be in the movie though.

 

[Deleted member 135]

What if it's a Sir Francis Drake biopic?

 

[shaneo632]

Don't get hype you will be underwhelmed when it turns out he's voicing an Uncharted animated series.

 

[ZattMurdock]

What if he is playing Sir Francis Drake?

 

[Samara]

Too late. A shame too.

 

[Saifu]

Flash forward of an old Drake telling stories of fhis young days.

 

[Jindrax]

Isn't he fat and old now?

 

[Falchion]

Yep, pretty cool premise.

That could actually work as well.

 

[Chaos Legion]

Please no, Sony.

No to Holland as well.

 

[Dalek]

I think that some people don't realize how old Fillion is.

 

[Deleted member 5666]

Fillion is old and did not age well.

People still post pictures of him from the early 2000s whenever there is an article about him.

 

[gutter_trash]

Nathan Fillion >>>>>>>>> Nolan North

 

[DrROBschiz]

If the movie is a sequel to Uncharted 4 then sure

 

[Violence Jack]

I've got no problem with him wanting to play post UC4 Drake. But this movie should've been made after UC 2 to get Fillion still somewhat in his prime.

I feel like it would be someone along the lines of Chris Pine or Bradley Cooper playing Drake now.

[Seeya]

I imagine they could get him for dirt cheap considering he's almost entirely a minor TV actor. Still, he seems like discount Nathan Drake/Nolan North. With a bigger production and provided they could have pulled it off, I'd have rather had a de aged Nolan North do it.

 

[Wazzy]

That would be the worst choice ever. Young Nathan Fillion? Sure but as he is now I'll take a hard pass. Hopefully it's just a role in the movie that isn't Drake.

 

[Volimar]

Nathan Fillion was my dream choice but he's just not fit enough for that action. If it's animated I'm all for it.


My dream cast for it now is James Roday.

 

[Scullibundo]

Dream cast? lol this isn't 2008 breh

Dreamcast was 1998.

Tom Holland is young Drake already.

He will likely be young Sully or older Drake, telling flashbacks. Young Sully most likely.

 

[wisdom0wl]

this thing is still happening?

Sony why

Sully is Bruce Campbell or no sale

He even played a character just like Sully on Burn Notice in case you need more evidence

 

[hordak]

Nathan Fillion can play any character from video games....10 years ago....

 

[Deleted member 18347]

You know I'd rather see Fillion do an older Nathan than Holland doing a younger version.

But he doesn't look like any of these...He looks like Drake.

 

[Ramala]

If Harrison Ford is still doing Indiana Jones why not? Or if they rebooted the game his voice would be perfect.

 

[QuigleyMcShine]

Seems like you might get both?

Did the Tom Holland announcement actually happen or was it just that he was in talks? I can't remember.

If they make a movie and don't give Nolan North a cameo it's a crime.
