Uncharted Director Says He's Wanted To Direct The Movie For Years

Shawn Levy is set for taking on Uncharted. The film has floated around for years and years, but it seems, finally, hopefully, the film is on track in the fast lane, especially with the script recently having been completed.

Levy recently spoke to Collider (via Gamespot) about the movie, and revealed it has been a project he's wanted to cover for years. He said:

I've been interested in this project for years. It's as cinematic a game as we've had maybe ever, certainly of late. And it's cinematic because it's not only kind of wildly visual but it's really rooted in character and a very specific tone and a sense of fun. Like, when is the last great, fun, f**king action, dynamic, treasure-hunting movie?

So I've been interested in it and I've been quietly letting people know I'm interested in it. But other people have been involved; I've been busy. A moment finally appeared quite recently where I was like [raises hand], 'Me. Okay? Me.' And Sony and producers were like, 'Yeah, that makes perfect sense.

I think Levy is actually a very competent director and he certainly could make something of this. Here's hoping this turns our great.
