New Director Found For Uncharted Film?

Dan Lee 33 Comments

Ever since David O. Russell dropped out of the Uncharted film, the hunt has been on for a replacement. Variety is reporting that a new director has indeed been found, and it’s Neil Burger.

You may remember Burger as Director for Limitless, and The Illusionist. It’s unclear as to whether Mark Wahlberg is still involved with the project.

  1. I like him, Limitless was great. This could be okay, especially without Mark Wahlblergh.

  2. Limitless was awesome as top comment says just dont choose Mark Wahlberg for the film and its good to go.

  3. Somethings is missing from this post. I can’t put my finger on it …

    Maybe a “Thanks, Kovacs”?
    :P

  4. Ffs, bet its shite. The games like an epic film anyways. Dont spoil one of the greatest franchises out there….

  5. Limitless was alrite but a real weak storyline and plot!

    I’m glad he’s dropped it, ESP with his ” I’ll do unchartered how I want and not game related”

    Roll on hopefully a very good unchartered film along the likes of Indiana jones or national treasure

    Oh and a sick trilogy would be nice ;) not asking for much though lol

    • Unchartered… Isn’t this the game where the hero consistently misses his plane?

    • Wait… national treasure was a good film?

  6. limitless was the one with the NZT drug? yeah that was a mighty fine film, looking /slightly/ more forward to it now

  7. How about Christopher Nolan?

  8. I was over at IGN and someone said that David Boreanaz would be a better choice. Check some photos out and I think you will agree.

    • Wow, I’m surprised no-one has mentioned him b4. Looks a spitting image.

    • Holy shit yeah, old angel becoming drake

      • Only if Sarah Michelle Gellar plays Elena ;) Actually that wouldn’t be a bad choice.

    • He did the voice of Cloud in Kingdom Hearts, so no stranger to game-related work.

    • He is a s**t actor imo.

  9. Yet to see Limitless but have heard good things about it. The Illusionist is pretty good too. Glad O Russel went as i really didnt like the idea he was bringing in for it.

  10. Half way thru they should swap to Zack Snyder should make for and interesting film ;)

    • I am with you he could make an awesome Uncharted.
