Mark Wahlberg is playing Sully


Okay so I guess they want to have their cake and eat it too. Have a younger Nathan Drake to capitalize on Tom Holland but still attach a recognizable A-list leading man (who could had been a solid Drake in his own right) to draw a crowd.

Eh. I can't imagine Mark being able to pull this off. Should have tried to find someone with a similar voice as the video game Sully.

reply

Should be Bryan Cranston. This movie sounds like a disaster in the making with so many directors leaving.

reply

Bryan Cranston, oh yeah good one. or Kevin Klein or Kevin Spacey. What the hell?

reply

Yeah, I don’t like this either. I think Wahlberg would’ve been more suitable to play Sam Drake ( Drake’s brother) at least than Sully. Wahlberg is not suave and not gentlman-like to play subtle Sully.

reply

Terrible casting, such an unlikable person, and even if he wasn't he wouldn't be able to pull of Sully.

reply

Kinda figured they bomb this from the beginning. Did they even PLAY Uncharted? Mark Wahlberg looks nothing like Sully, a Kevin Spacey or Kevin Klein would do, but Marky Mark? Comeon.

To give you a sense of how long it's been in development hell, Wahlberg was gonna play Drake TEN YEARS AGO!
