Of course, there's always the chance that this is a bit of sneaky misdirection from the studio. It's been established that other UnchartedВ game characters will appear in the movie, with Chloe Frazer (Sophia Taylor Ali) making her appearance in the trailer, so including Sam's character without showing him would be an odd choice. The trailer points to a reunion between Nathan and his lost sibling, and the most likely reason that a face hasn't yet been put to the character is that it will be the film's big final act reveal, possibly in order to set up a franchise with another A-lister to appear alongside Holland and Wahlberg. The trailer seems to have drawn on Nathan and Sam's dysfunctional fraternal bond in Uncharted 4,В depicting a Nathan that's willing to risk life and limb to rescue his brother - and that's not something that can be done if the character isn't present at all. His name isn't used as a throwaway nod to the character - it seems that he directly influences the story, making it clear that the studio has a good reason to keep Sam hidden.В Changes have already been made to Uncharted's timelineВ for the movie, so further narrative reimagining isn't out of the question - all of which points towards the fact that there's likely to be a surprise regarding Sam Drake upon the film's release. With the sheer amount of Easter eggs and subtle nods to the games included in the trailer, Sam's absence is more than a little conspicuous - especially given his apparent importance to the prequel's plot.

Sam is a major character in Uncharted 4, which also adds context to Nathan's story, and now the elder Drake's important role in the UnchartedВ movieВ is evident from the numerous mentions of him in the trailer. One of the things that the UnchartedВ movie trailer reveals is that SullyВ already knows Sam upon meeting Nathan, who is later heard saying thatВ his brotherВ has left behind clues to the treasure. He's mentioned by both Sully and Nathan, with Sully alluding to his disappearance, hinting that finding Sam (as well as Magellan's lost treasure) will be at the center of Uncharted's narrative.

HereвЂ™s what to know about the movie, which will hit theaters come 2022.Despite mentioning him several times, the trailer for the Unchartedmovie keeps Nathan Drake's brother Sam hidden - but why? The full trailer for the prequel drops Sam's name a few times, indicating that he's involved in the film's narrative somehow. Several actors were approached to headline the project, including Chris Pratt, but finally, the film got off the ground with Tom Holland in the lead role. But with the film lagging in development hell, Walberg eventually left the part (instead taking on a more, ahem, mature role). Mark Wahlberg has been attached to the project since 2010, initially in the role of Drake.

With that kind of obvious draw, itвЂ™s not surprising Hollywood has been looking to make a film from the Uncharted series since 2008. The result is perfect for blockbuster action. But Drake also finds himself in spy versus spy situations, bringing a whole James-Bond-in-a-tux vibe to the party.

If one were to say that Indiana Jones inspired Lara Croft from Tomb Raider, and Drake was inspired by Lara Croft, that makes him the next iteration of an Indy-like character. Nathan Drake comes from a long line of action-adventure-inspired heroes. Judging by the trailer the Uncharted movie adaptation promises to be an old-fashioned fun, wild ride. In short, itвЂ™s the kind of game that perfect for inspiring a movie. The original game came out in 2007, starring Nathan Drake, a handsome treasure-hunting hero with a heart of gold and riddles to solve, some of which feature real-life archaeological facts.

While the games that capture mainstream attention tend to be titles like AssassinвЂ™s Creed, Grand Theft Auto, or Animal Crossing, any gamer can tell you that one of the best action-adventure titles for Playstation is Uncharted.
