Video games are really the talk of the industry at the moment and it’s been proved this year. Especially by the big-screen adaptations based on some of the most popular IPs in the world. One such film is Sony’s Uncharted, starring Tom Holland, which has surprised everyone with its immense success at the box office.
Uncharted was released earlier this year amidst mixed reviews from the critics. Despite the average critical reactions, the film managed to defy the odds, becoming one of the highest grossing movies of the year. Most of the credit for its record-breaking run goes to Tom Holland’s charismatic performance as Nathan Drake.

Since its initial release in theaters, Uncharted has been among the top trending films of the year. Apart from swaying the audience, it has also proved that Tom Holland is really an important asset for Sony right now.
