Said WahlbergIt will be his fourth film with O. Russell. He also reported that Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci were in talks to co-star. He confirmed he will play the lead role of an adventurer Nathan Drake (sorry, Nathan Fillion). Speaking to MTV, Wahlberg has clarified the rumors. Earlier this month, the rumor that Mark Wahlberg was the lead role in David O. adaptation s Russell, the video game Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune.
So hopefully we’ll do the film this summer.”The idea that you have is crazy. “David is one of the best writers and directors who have worked with.
Hit the jump to see how De Niro and Pesci fit into the picture and my thoughts on Wahlberg as Drake.
Neither De Niro and Pesci are officially on board, but MTV Wahlberg says he has spoken and people Pesci O. S Russell talked with De Niro. As the two Hollywood icons at play:
It will not be the smoothed version, that’s for sure.”"Obviously I’m in what David wants to do, but the idea is so out of series: be my father De Niro, Pesci be my uncle.
The game focuses first on the search for Drake of El Dorado, while the second game has been looking for Shangri-La.I can not imagine this movie score a Ra despite the violence of video games and basically Drake killing about 500 people throughout history.

This is the guy who says “Oh, shit! We hope you will be able to carry it out, but I’d be lying if I said I was not disappointed that the paper failed FillionWahlberg plays a good tough guy, but Drake (Drake endearing at least the game) is more rudimentary and resourceful. Character is a loser, and while Wahlberg may be able to play, which always seemed too tense and stoic, even in a comedy like The Other Guys. But I’m not a big fan of the cast Wahlberg. Oh, shit Oh, shit!” When a grenade falls next to him.
