A series of email exchange from Sony executives have been leaked again, this time around it's about the highly anticipated movie adaptation to the hit action-adventure game, "Uncharted."
While the Sony execs talked about their plans for the movie, they did not mention anything about its release date. Making fans worry that it may take a little longer for it to materialize.
According to Game Spot the leaked email exchange posted by WikiLeaks, reveals that the movie adaptation will feature not only the origin story of Nathan Drake, it will also delve on the love story between the lead character and Elena.
"Chief among the changes were adjustments that dialed back the film's 'buddy movie' nature to make it more clearly 'Drake's story,'" Jonathan Kadin of Columbia Pictures said in the email adressed to former Sony chairwoman Amy Pascal.
In addition, "We've added more to Elena's story with Drake so their relationship feels like the primary relationship in the story."
In another email, the planned "Uncharted" movie, which will supposedly feature a love story was even compared to Walt Disney's "National Treasure" starring Nicholas Cage and Diane Kruger.
"It's also worth noting that the Nate and Elena relationship is a lot sexier and more fun than the Nic Cage-Diane Kruger relationship in National Treasure," it said. "A lot more!! The romantic tension in National Treasure was pretty lame."
"National Treasure is fun no doubt, but Uncharted takes the action adventure movie to a more grounded, contemporary and visceral level, and we need to do that given what audiences have been exposed to since the National Treasure movies," he added. "So, we'll get the kids for sure, but we'll have a movie that can be strong enough--and 'cool' enough--for adults."
Still no mentioning of the "Uncharted" movie release date, but Sony execs did mention actors who they think would be great to portray the role of Nathan Drake.
The email dated on May 2014, claimed that "Thor" star Chris Hemsworth is the number one contender for the role. Mark Wahlberg and Channing Tatum were also mentioned in the leaked email.
Director Seth Gordon, on the other hand, said that he is aiming to start the production of "Uncharted" movie this year, in an interview with Zap2It.
"I think very early next year. That's the plan," he said last year. "That's like tomorrow, essentially, because the prep is so complicated for the movie."
He also added that the shooting locations will be "very international" and "all over the world."
