At the beach, there were so many extras and people who wanted to see him. “I was super impressed by Tom Holland, not only his talent, but the person he is and watching him interact with the cast and crew. As for Holland’s younger take on Drake, the original actor had nothing but praise. North revealed that he and Holland performed the scene as written, but also improvised a few lines. This was at the time where you order food, they knock on the door, they run and you bring your food in like Gollum.” I’m in beautiful Barcelona - now I can’t leave my hotel room for 36 hours. “I flew from Houston to Barcelona, got off the plane, went straight to their facility for a COVID test and to the hotel. They flew me to Houston, I got an emergency visa in about 90 minutes then I was leaving the next night,” North recalled. had a positive COVID test and they shut down. The next day, the office for emergency visas in L.A. Then I had to get my visa the next day, and I was leaving the day after that. However, this was in October 2020 at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, which made North’s trip to Barcelona something like a twisty, suspense-filled “Uncharted” adventure itself. Under normal circumstances, the cameo would’ve been simple to film. The scene took four days to shoot in Barcelona, where Drake, Chloe and Mark Wahlberg’s Victor “Sully” Sullivan explore during their treasure hunt. It’s a quick little thing, and it works for the scheme of the film and it’s fun. I was adamant with them, I didn’t want it to be self-indulgent.

From what we did, it’s just enough of a nod that everyone goes, ‘Ah, that’s the guy!’ And then we’re right back into the film. “I don’t like to be taken out of a movie. I told them, ‘I don’t need to be in the movie just to be in the movie,'” North said. As Drake and Chloe walk off, North calls out, “Good luck!”įor North, the cameo was short and sweet, exactly what he’d hoped to contribute to the film. You know, something like that happened to me once,” North says knowingly. “Fell out of a car then fell out of a plane,” Holland answers, drenched, but mostly unfazed by his near-death experience. As Drake’s original voice actor appears, the iconic “Uncharted” video game theme swells for the first time in the movie.

“Whoa, what the hell happened to you two?” North asks, lounging in a chair on the beach. They’re eventually carried by the current to a beach town, where a familiar voice greets them. They manage to latch onto a piece of luggage mid-fall and deploy a parachute, allowing them to float down to the water and bob on the waves. The pair of treasure hunters plummet down, a breathtaking and seamless sequence that appears as if it were shot in one take. Right before he makes it back into the plane, Chloe, armed with a parachute, hops into the car and drives it out the cargo bay door - directly into Drake. Thrown from the cargo bay, Drake hangs on to a container for dear life, climbing and battling mercenaries along the way. In true video-game fashion, a shootout ensues aboard the plane, and massive shipping containers are jettisoned mid-flight. The sequence, inspired by an action set piece in “Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception,” begins with Drake stowing away in the trunk of a car being loaded into a plane in order to steal an ancient artifact. I’m 51,” North told Variety.įortunately for fans, North has a brief, but memorable cameo in the “Uncharted” adaptation, right after Holland’s Drake and Sophia Ali’s Chloe Frazer survive plummeting from a cargo plane thousands of feet in the air. “People think, ‘It should’ve been you.’ No, it shouldn’t. In fact, many “Uncharted” fans wanted North himself to star in an adaptation for years, but the actor has one simple response to that.
