Uncharted Movie: 8 Characters That MUST Appear

8. Sam Drake

Let’s get this one out of the way with early. It may have taken until the fourth game of the series for Sam to show up, and for anyone to even know about his existence, but he will most certainly show up in the first Uncharted movie.

The story of the movie will follow Nate and Sully on the hunt for Magellan’s treasure, and though he hasn’t been shown or confirmed as of yet, Sam’s presence can already be felt. It was Nate’s older brother that left the breadcrumb trail of clues in the first place, and he who believed there was one last piece of the puzzle missing.

He was namedropped in both trailers, has a so far unexplained previous link to Sully, and there is no way this movie ends without him showing up. It seems certain that he will appear at the end of the story along the path to the treasure he is so deeply connected to.

With it being this obvious, it does beg the question, why bother trying to keep it as a surprise? He looks to be integral to the story, and will almost certainly show his face before the movie is through. How similar he will be to his video game counterpart remains to be seen, however.
