Not me. Everyone thinks hes right for just about anything, but really i just think he's right for Nathan Drake and Hal.

i think he is too old and big for drake personally

^what have you not heard the direction the director is going with uncharted and the actor he wants?

if not trust me it will piss you off

“This idea really turns me on that there’s a family that’s a force to be reckoned with in the world of international art and antiquities … [a family] that deals with heads of state and heads of museums and metes out justice

“We’ll have the family dynamic, which we’ve done in a couple of movies now. And then you take that and put it on the bigger, more muscular stage of an international action picture, but also put all the character stuff in it. That’s a really cool idea to me.”

quotes from David O Russell

no one really knows lolol it is like he never played the games

not to mention mark is the complete opposite personality wise for Drake Mark is one of the most serious and stoic actors i know and is only funny when he is an ass - see Departed for example

Neil Burger is charting a course to write and direct Sony's adaptation of Naughty Dog's hit videogame "Uncharted: Drake's Fortune." The helmer, who most recently scored with Relativity's "Limitless," a Virgin Produced pic that starred Bradley Cooper, is in negotiations to shepherd the action adventure after David O. Russell recently left the project due to creative differences.
Burger landed the offer after the studio and producers Avi Arad, Ari Arad, Charles Roven and Alex Gartner sparked to his new take on the pic, which Sony will now move forward with. Thomas Dean Donnelly and Joshua Oppenheimer had penned the first draft of "Uncharted."
It's unclear whether Mark Wahlberg will remain interested in starring in "Uncharted" now that Russell is no longer helming. Pic would have reteamed thesp with "The Fighter" director.
Sony is very high on "Uncharted," eyeing a film adaptation as the potential launch of its own "Indiana Jones"-like franchise, which borrows heavily from 1930 serials, after the first two games have turned into a standout hit for the company's PlayStation division. A third game, exclusive to the PS3 console, hits store shelves Nov. 11.
First game, "Drake's Fortune," bowed in 2007, and introduced Nathan Drake, a descendant of explorer Sir Francis Drake, who goes on a quest to seek the lost treasure of El Dorado with the help of his friend Victor "Sully" Sullivan and a journalist. The sequel, "Among Thieves," was released in 2009, while "Drake's Deception" is upcoming.
Overall, the games have sold nearly 6 million copies.
