10 More Movie Moments Everyone Was Waiting For (That Never Happened)
10. Elena's Appearance - Uncharted
After years in development hell, after going through multiple script changes, multiple directors, and even changing Mark Wahlberg's role from Nathan Drake to that of Sully, Sony's Uncharted movie finally released in 2022. It was a fun outing that certainly featured a lot of the game's elements, but rarely did the characters actually feel like their PlayStation counterparts.
Drake and Sully's backstory was changed completely, Wahlberg couldn't have felt less like Victor Sullivan, and Chloe was portrayed as younger than she ever was in the games. The biggest crime however, was completely omitting Elena Fischer from the movie.
With the post-credit scene, there was certainly a return for the franchise teased, and it's unlikely that Sony would want to throw everything into the first movie with their eyes firmly set on potentially multiple sequels. However, Elena is just as important a character as Nate and Sully, and to omit her entirely from the first movie was a shock.
Including completely original characters but not one of the central protagonists from the series is one thing, but surely she was going to be teased after the credits, right? Nope. Instead, this sting was used to namedrop Gabriel Roman and show off Sully's moustache.
