Tom plays the video game’s memorable hero Nate Drake, a putative descendant of Sir Francis Drake who is after a stash of gold.
Meanwhile Mark, who was meant to play Nate when the project was in development over a decade ago, has taken the older role of Sully.
Over the course of the video game series Sully – a former military man – becomes something of a parental figure to young Nate.
At the beginning of the trailer they are seen becoming acquainted as Sully, decked out in a tuxedo, arrives at a bar being tended by Nate.

‘A little young for a bartender aren’t you?’ cracks Sully to which Nate claps back: ‘A little old for prom aren’t you?’ raising a smile from Sully.
As the trailer progresses Sully shows Nate around his home, which is strewn with maps and various arcana about fortune hunting.
Nate traces a line drawn on one world map and realizes: ‘This is the path that Ferdinand Magellan took to sail around the world.’
Sully approvingly notes: ‘You know your history,’ and when Nate points out that there was a huge loot that has ‘never been found’ Sully estimates it at ‘five billion easy.’

During the trailer the brief specter of Nate’s brother, who is presumed dead, comes up but remains a mysterious subject.
Amid his adventures Nate is also seen boating out to a deserted ocean cave and swimming through the water to make his way inside.
As he surfaces in the cave he clambers up onto a rock, showing off his toned torso in a drenched white shirt, and stares mouth agape at an old shipwreck.
The adventurer Chloe Frazer, who is played by Sophia Taylor Ali and becomes a love interest for the leading man, makes her own memorable appearance.

Nate tentatively introduces himself to her as a ‘friend of Sully’s’ only for her to drily remark: ‘Sully doesn’t have any friends. I should know. I’m one of them.’
Once the good guys are all introduced the villains enter the scene – Antonio Banderas as a treasure hunter and Tati Gabrielle as some sort of assassin.
Sully at one point tries to make his way through what appears to be some sort of underground hall – only for Tati’s character Braddock to hold a knife to his throat.
Antonio is seen looking dapper as ever as he emerges menacingly from a sports car and confronts Nate at a swanky art gallery event.

‘My family has been looking for this fortune for a very long time,’ he tells Nate, ominously adding: ‘So much blood.’
Nate then talks to Sully on an earpiece from across the event saying of Antonio’s character: ‘I’m pretty sure he just threatened to kill me.’
Sully catches sight of his protege on the other side of the party and mentions a more pressing concern: ‘Don’t touch your ear like that, you look like an idiot.’
Amid the swirl of action sequences that are briefly seen onscreen Nate reveals that ‘I’ve been dreaming about this stuff since I was a kid.’

Tom Holland spotted shopping at Walgreens in Los Angeles
One evocative moment shows him reading an old postcard while holding a lighter underneath it so that a message in invisible ink will materialize.
‘My brother Sam left one final clue,’ Nate says in voiceover as he is shown trying to discover clues in a dark cavern.
Apparently Chloe’s patience with either Nate or Sully runs out at some point as she is seen pointing a gun and warning: ‘You have no idea who you partnered with.’
One bombastic action scene shows Nate and Chloe desperately fighting for their lives in the hold of the plane – with the hatch left open.

He manages to grab onto some of the cargo that is still dangling from the hold, desperately clambering back up toward the aircraft.
As the string of hanging cargo finally comes detached from the plane Nate is left with one last chance – he jumps in the hope of landing inside.
Just as he thinks he is safely back on the plane a large red car slides down towards him and knocks him right back out again.

In one chuckle-worthy scene Nate cracks a safe but is suddenly confronted by a burly Scotsman hired by Antonio.
‘Ye shouldn’t’ae come out to play wi’ the big boys, wee’un, ’cause you’re about to get a proper Scottish welcome,’ he says in a thick accent to which Nate replies: ‘What?’
Directed by Ruben Fleischer of Zombieland fame the upcoming Uncharted movie is slated for release four days after Valentine’s Day next year.
