Uncharted 2 is currently in development and is still to be verified by Sony despite fan demand. The “no news is good perspective but, it also means that we could see one.
It’s more than speculation, however. Sony director Tom Rothman initially referred to Uncharted itself as “a brand-new franchise for us” in an interview with Deadline. However, there’s a different adage you can use to discredit Rothman’s plans The most well-thought-out plans…
One thing that is in the ‘could be happening category is the movie’s box office earning a whopping $400 million in the first quarter of 2022 even with mixed critiques from the critics. The film’s release date was an uncertain period to the industry, this figure is not to be questioned.
It’s currently an eager wait for Sony to officially unveil the game and in the meantime, as you wait for the announcement, this is what you must be aware of.
Uncharted 2 possible release date: What time should we anticipate Uncharted 2 to be released?
The release date for the sequel to Uncharted isn’t yet officially confirmed the release date is been announced but has yet to be confirmed. It is possible to look at the first film for a timeline in a certain extent in order to establish a timetable to the follow-up.
The production of Uncharted began in July of 2020 and ended in October 2020. Then, it began shooting reshoots began beginning in the month of July. The film did however have several changes to its release date that were made before it was released to cinemas for a two and a half years after having completed all of its shooting (that’s February 2022).
Uncharted 2 cast: Who’s coming back for Uncharted 2?
Tom Holland would, of course, have to be back as Nathan Drake in any potential sequel. He is no stranger to a franchise and like his MCU outings, Uncharted ends with a tease for what’s to come in a potential sequel. Mark Wahlberg would also return as his mentor/father figure Victor ‘Sully’ Sullivan.
Sophia Ali will also likely be back as treasure hunter Chloe Frazer who, in the second game, was briefly Nate’s love interest. The first movie had a hint of their potential romance, but ended with them as potential rivals, after Nate tricks Chloe about the treasure’s location.
The credit scene teased the return of Nate’s brother Sam, who Nate believes is dead (this was also a key plot in the game Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End) but it’s not yet clear who will be playing him in the sequel where Sam is sure to have a bigger role to play.
Fleischer told CinemaBlend that he’s got a “list of actors” who could play Sam, but he stopped short of confirming Sam will be in the sequel.
“I couldn’t promise that it’d be in the next movie, but it was really important to me that if we’re gonna bring that character back, that in this film, we acknowledge the fact he’s alive,” he explained.
“I thought it was important to make sure the audience knows that he’s out there somewhere. Nate doesn’t know. Someday he’ll find out himself, and meet him again.”
Don’t expect to see Antonio Banderas back as Moncada though after he was killed by his own mercenary Braddock, played by Tati Gabrielle. Braddock was later killed when a ship fell on her, but since we didn’t see her body, she might have survived.
It’s unlikely, but considering this is a world where Nate can fall from a cargo plane and survive with barely a scratch, you can’t rule anything out.
