In this episode of the It’s Tom-plicated: A Tom Holland Podcast, hosts Alex Marcus and Manish Mathur explore the video game adaptation Uncharted from director Ruben Fleischer. The film stars Tom Holland, Mark Wahlberg, Sophia Ali, Tati Gabrielle, and Antonio Banderas. Joining the podcast is Dave Giannini from Pop Culture Case Study and InSession Film!
In the episode, they talk about how the movie fares as an adaptation of the popular game. They talk about casting decisions, including Tom himself as the game’s lead Nathan Drake. Further discussion includes which sequences work and which don’t, and how the movie plays to audiences who don’t game. Uncharted was also a surprise hit in post-pandemic 2022, but instead led to a surprising hiatus for its star.
In two weeks, Alex and Manish cover Tom’s foray into prestige TV with Apple TV+’s The Crowded Room. In part one, they discuss the first five episodes of the dramatic miniseries co-starring Amanda Seyfried.
