Uncharted 2 Film is in Production! Let’s Look at Every Reference in the First Film

Nathan Drake’s Treasure Hunt Continues!

Sony confirmed Uncharted movie sequel! Whether or not you are fond of the first movie, starring Tom Holland as the infamous Nathan Drake and Mark Wahlberg as Sully, it is happening! But we don’t know a whole lot about it other than it has begin production with the same cast of characters and hopefully Sully gets to keep the stache at all times now.

So instead of try and think where does Nathan Drake’s second journey will take him next, let’s look back at the references, details and easter eggs in the first film!

Here’s all the references in the first movie!

Video game adaptation of any kind loves to give some acknowledgement and nods to the long-time fans, whether it is a subtle nod or a full blown head bang. Good for us, we got both in the first Uncharted movie. The first and most early that appear is the red dog paw of Naughty Dog’s official logo, the genius development team that brought Uncharted to life since the beginning which turns out to be one of PlayStation’s iconic franchise.

Sic Parvis Magna’s Ring Necklace

The iconic ring necklace that Nathan Drake wore all the time makes an appearance in the movie, of course, it’s a huge part of what makes Nathan Drake the way he is in terms of his eagerness of discovery and purpose. Another reason is it acts as a sort of lucky charm for him! Not only the necklace, but the whole adventure outfit is straight out of the video game, albeit stuck to a new baby-faced protagonist. Let’s hope the second adventure brings in other iconic outfits and more familiar characters from the game.

THE FLIGHT SCENE IS IN THE MOVIE! Uncharted the video game has many prominent fight scenes, particularly the first trilogy which what makes the game stands out head-to-head with another famous treasure hunter, Lara Croft. Not to downgrade Uncharted 4 which has one of the best car fight scenes in the history of media and the best exploration of all the game in the series. Let’s hope the movie sequel brings in a much bigger budget fight scene and set pieces in the future!

The Stache King! We all are furious when the trailer drops and it shows Sully, the very definition of stache king, without a stache! It’s like making a Mad Max movie without Mad Max. But we do get a glimpse of Mark Wahlberg’s Sully with the aforementioned mustache (personally I still don’t like it but it’s still better) during the end credit scene so let’s hope that they keep the look for the entirety of Uncharted 2.

Nolan North Himself!

Nathan Drake meets Nathan Drake! Nolan North, the original voice actor for Nathan Drake makes a surprising appearance in the movie and I LOVE IT! The short interaction between those two Nathan Drakes is the best thing in the movie.

Hopefully the second film will be more successful and features more epic scenes than the first one, understandably so as the first movie needs to set the franchise up by introducing the characters and world.
