This kid is going places

It’s no secret Sony has been jiggering around with their adaptation of Naughty Dog’sUnchartedseries, but now it sounds like they’ve found a direction. Tom Holland, ofSpider-Man: HomecomingandRihanna’s “Umbrella” fame, will star as a young Nathan Drake in an adaptation of the flashback sequence inUncharted 3: Drake’s Deceptionwhere Nathan meets Sully.

According to Deadline, this new direction was set in place after seeing a cut ofSpider-Man: Homecoming, which bodes well for Sony Pictures’ confidence in both franchises (even going so far as to castTom Hardy as Venomas a branch of the universe).
