Mark Wahlberg gives promising update on Uncharted sequel
Mark Wahlberg has confirmed that the script for the 'Uncharted' sequel is complete and that production on the sequel could soon follow.
Mark Wahlberg has teased that an 'Uncharted' sequel is on the horizon.
The 52-year-old actor played Victor 'Sully' Sullivan in the 2022 movie based on the hit video game franchise of the same name and has given a promising update about progress on the follow-up by confirming that the script is complete and that he will have to start growing his alter ego's trademark moustache once again.
Speaking to Screen Rant, Mark said: "Actually, I just got a call today that they got the script in. I can't grow a real beard and moustache, but they said, 'Start growing your moustache. It's gonna take a while.'
"I'd be interested to see what the story's like, and where that adventure takes us. But I'm excited; I know audiences really loved the first one, so we'll see."
The 'Ted' actor confirmed last year that a script had been written although there was no official confirmation from Sony.
Mark told The Direct: "I've heard lots of different ideas. I know somebody's written a script, and they're still working on it, and it would consist of having the moustache the whole entire time, which completely makes sense; obviously, in that final scene, I have the moustache."
'Uncharted' was met with mixed reviews following its release and Wahlberg's co-star Tom Holland admitted to making a "mistake" in his portrayal of protagonist Nathan Drake.
The 'Spider-Man' actor told GQ: "As soon as you start worrying about, 'Do I look good in this shot?', acting becomes something other than playing a character.
"It was an important lesson learned, because, at times, it was less about land a mark and go through this scene and more about land a mark, stand like this and see my bulging biceps ... It was a mistake and is something that I will probably never do again."
