An official “Uncharted” movie may be languishing in development, but fans are getting a chance to see Nathan Fillion as Nathan Drake in an unofficial fan-made short film.
Based on the popular video game series, the short film by Canadian director Allan Ungar stars the Edmonton-born actor as the rogue treasure hunter and also features an appearance by “Don’t Breathe” actor Stephen Lang.

It’s a role fans have long-lobbied the actor to play in an official big-screen adaptation that’s been stalled in the development process for nearly a decade with another Canadian at the helm — director and “Stranger Things” producer Shawn Levy.

Fillion himself has been eager to take on the role in a more official capacity, calling it “something I’ve wanted to do” for a long time.
The 15-minute “Uncharted” tribute has fans salivating over Fillion as Drake with his witty dialogue and a video game-worthy battle. It just may be the best video game adaptation ever.
