Portrayed by Nolan North in the games, Drake – a self-claimed descendent of explorer Sir Francis – is a much-loved character in the gaming world. North influenced Drake’s personality by ad-libbing segment’s of his dialogue across the Uncharted titles but handed over to Holland for the film. Holland landing the role was somewhat of a surprise, given the likes of Nathan Fillion, Chris Pratt and Mark Wahlberg were all rumoured to play the protagonist – Wahlberg actually ending up as Victor “Sully” Sullivan.įillion even starred in a live short action film based on the Uncharted series in 2018 that fans loved, but 25-year-old Holland was eventually picked to play a younger version of Drake. The British actor began his career in theatre and went on to achieve international fame for playing Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe superhero films. Holland’s turn as Drake comes at an intriguing time, with Daniel Craig appearing for the fifth and final time as James Bond in No Time To Die earlier this year.

Tom Holland has been confirmed as the man tasked with playing Drake, a charismatic and good-natured treasure hunter who travels across the world to uncover various historical mysteries.
