But just how did the the Academy Award Nominated actor and a director with comedy horror roots make the Green Goblin so terrifying and, frankly, goofy? So let's take a look at how heroes and villains work together on screen and how one of the best performances on superhero celluloid came to be.For Tobey Maguire's first outing as Spider-Man, Sam Raimi and co needed a perfect thematic foil and found it in the post Y2K, post dot-com bubble tech infused counterpoint to a Peter Parker that's more organic, with his naturally produced web, a departure from the mechanical web shooters Tom Holland has in Homecoming, Far From Home, No Way Home and the rest of the MCU and with Andrew Garfield in The Amazing Spider-Man series. But in 2002, Willem Dafoe and Sam Raimi created a version of the character so iconic, that it's not a stretch to call it definitive. All the way back to the 1960s and the villains Silver Age origins. Spider-Man and Green Goblin go back a long way. Now that production has finally begun, Tom Holland says it's "everything I dreamed it would be".
#Uncharted movie movie
Then again, perhaps we should be happy to see any Uncharted movie news at all, given the film has had seven different directors attached at one time or another. No mustache, no gray in the hair, no cigar, mehĪre we looking at the newest moustache-related controversy in popular culture, after Superman's CGI-ed top lip in Justice League? Only time will tell. I know they are young Nate and Sully but Where is Sully’s moustache ? For the sake of those working on the film, I hope so, because the initial reaction has been a mixture of shock, disbelief and gifs: It's not entirely clear if these pictures were taken during active filming - there's the chance that what's seen above is a test shot, and Wahlberg will wear a false moustache for the filming. With the Uncharted movie acting as an origin story for Nathan Drake, many expected Wahlberg to sport Sully's younger look from the games, but based on these images, that maybe not be the case. In the Uncharted game series, Sully - an "American treasure hunter, fortune seeker and businessman, as well as a friend, mentor and father figure to Drake - is shown as both a younger and older man sporting a moustache. | and Mark Wahlberg shooting #Uncharted in Berlin last night /ZfjMQwawf1 But what really stood out to fans is the lack of facial hair on display: Shared on Twitter, the images were reportedly taken on-set in Berlin, showing Tom Holland's young Nathan Drake and Wahlberg's Sully, both dressed in suits. The massed ranks of the Internet were similarly rocked by the revelation. That was until today when set photos from the in-production Uncharted movie possibly revealed that Mark Wahlberg's take on the character is clean-shaven, and now I don't know what to believe anymore.

As ZacharyMitzel puts it, "I swear to god if they incorporate the mustache into sully’s arc".įew things in life are certain, but one of my unshakeable beliefs was that Sully from Uncharted has had a moustache his whole life – probably since birth. Of course, there's always the chance that the movie covers a timespan long enough for Wahlberg's Sully to either grow a moustache – or maybe even shave it off in a fit of treasure-related despair. It's literally a part of him and adds so much to his character. James Cowan agreed: "The fact they couldn’t even use stick on a moustache for Sully doesn’t really inspire confidence."įellow Twitter user Jason summed up the confusion around the disappearing 'tache: "I could've sworn there was a BTS photo Mark posted with the mustache and I'm so confused as to why it isn't there.

"I already had very low expectations but they are somehow even lower now after seeing this.they couldn't even do the bare minimum and let Sully have his mustache," wrote Ericka on Twitter. Source: The New York Times / Sony Pictures Entertainment. The internet has been scandalised as a result. The image – which shows Tom Holland's Nathan Drake and Wahlberg's Sully seemingly peering for clues in a church scene – reveals that, at least for this section of the film, Sully wears an entirely naked upper lip.
