00:05No, I mean, it's really simple.
00:06You just run right across there, stay out of the lights on the top,
00:09because that's where they have the guard outpost.
00:10See that pole? It's like a drainpipe.
00:13Shimmy right up there like a gibbon.
00:15Jump in windows, right foot, left foot over that.
00:19Right on top, steal every artifact in place. It's easy.
00:22Yeah, you do know that you're not actually Nathan Drake.
00:25You shut your mouth.
00:27You shut it.
00:28It's a character.
00:28I will cut you, I will open you up, and bleed you out.
00:33Why is it always violence with you?
00:34Because it has to be.
00:37It's how you survive in this business.
00:40You know what's funny is,
00:42I've been with this franchise since the beginning, but in a different way.
00:45Just as a gamer.
00:46This is one of the things that made me want to do this.
00:49So very few people have ever been able to stay with a character
00:54and watch it grow over ten years.
00:55What is that like for you?
00:56Ah, you know, it's surreal.
01:00I mean, if you want to be honest, if we're going to be serious for a moment.
01:03Yeah, it's surreal.
01:04You know, you never think you're going to get the job of a lifetime.
01:08You're not, as an actor, you're not sure if you're ever going to get a job, right?
01:11And then something like this comes along.
01:13And I always tell people, there's no such thing as Uncharted 1.
01:16Right.
01:17You know, it was Uncharted Drake's Fortune, and like, hey, that was fun.
01:21And you're back on the audition trail.
01:23And then, you know, they say, hey, people kind of liked it.
01:26Let's go to the second one.
01:27The second one blows up.
01:28And then you're third, and now here we are, after a Vita game as well.
01:32And here we are in Italy doing Uncharted 4 promotion.
01:35I mean, it's, yeah, it's rewarding.
01:38Especially being a character that they said, put as much of yourself in the character as you can.
01:42And then people like it.
01:44It's like Sally Field.
01:44You know, you like me.
01:45You really like me.
01:46So, now it's all over.
01:52It's bittersweet.
01:53But it's been a great ride.
01:54How much of Nathan Drake do you think is Nolan?
01:57Like a percentage-wise?
01:58I can't, I don't know.
01:59You know, it just, you know how it is.
02:01When we're on the stage, and we're out there, and you're developing a character, and when
02:06you're doing something for years at a time, I don't think people realize that you don't
02:09just go into a booth, and, you know, you do it for a couple hours, and then you're that
02:15guy.
02:15You live this.
02:16You know, for that.
02:17You do this over the course of a couple years.
02:19In this case, what, three and a half, four years?
02:21Four years.
02:21Of development.
02:22Going in a few times a month, here and there.
02:24Sometimes it's time off, maybe a few weeks, weekends in a row, or weeks in a row, you're
02:29in there.
02:30So, it's a real process.
02:31It's one of those things, I'm glad that they let me use my own voice, so it wasn't anything
02:35like that.
02:36How about with Sam, though?
02:37I mean, now, you had the, I know you were a fan of this.
02:40Sure.
02:41I mean, I think the first time you introduced yourself, you're like, oh, I enjoy it.
02:45It's like, oh, God, here we go.
02:46Here we go.
02:46Here we go.
02:47Fanboy.
02:47Who's this guy?
02:48Security.
02:49But, yeah, so you had the, you know, I know you're a big fan.
02:53I know this means a lot to you that you got to come in and do this this way, so
02:56what's
02:56it like being a Drake from the same scene?
03:01I remember the first time, I first played this game, I was doing a terrible movie in
03:07Texas in 2007, and I remember playing Uncharted 1, Drake's Fortune, and saying that all I want
03:15to do, I want to be one of the red shirts that Nathan Drake kills.
03:18You know that Star Trek, though, right?
03:20The red shirts.
03:20Yeah, but we're borrowing.
03:21Okay.
03:22People understand, they get it.
03:23Wow.
03:24So all I wanted to do was that, and I remember where I was when Neil Druckmann called me,
03:28and he said, I got to bring you in, and how do you feel about playing Nate Drake's brother?
03:34And I was like, I told him, I was like, don't mess with me, man.
03:37Don't, don't, don't lie to me if this isn't going to be true.
03:39Right.
03:39And we sat down, and we talked about it, and I remember him saying, you know, so the one
03:44thing about this is that you're his older brother.
03:46And I went, oh.
03:48No, it's fitting.
03:49It's fitting, because I look so much better.
03:51I mean, I look so much better.
03:52You've aged well.
03:54I was like, how is that going to work?
03:56And you know this, it's kind of like the relationship that I have with Travis Willingham, who's younger
04:02than me, but in so many ways, he's much more my older brother, and it's because of life
04:06experiences.
04:06And I think that with Nate, it was, when we were kids, when Nate and Sam were kids growing
04:12up in the orphanage, we needed this.
04:14And then you found, Nate found his own path.
04:17He found Sully, and he found Elena.
04:19And so he kind of grew up, and he became the older brother, and Sam kind of stayed in the
04:22same way.
04:23So for me, to come in and not just be a red shirt, but to come in and be the
04:30brother and
04:31see how this relationship fits in the whole story is, I don't want to say it's the coolest
04:37character in the franchise, but it's really cool because to me, it gives so much more
04:40dimension to Nate, to Sully, to Elena, to Cutter, to everybody who's been in this whole
04:47thing, because there's always been this outlier waiting in the wings for his chance to do
04:52an adventure with Nate.
04:53That Nate's never even talked about.
04:55I mean, he didn't even talk to his wife about it, so it's a cool character to play.
04:58How much has Nate changed, do you think, over, I mean, this is four, really kind of five
05:05games, how much has he changed?
05:08How much has Vi changed?
05:10How much has anybody changed?
05:11You know, it's, you know, wisdom is the sum of your experience.
05:16It's just, I think there's, you know, life hands you different things, and he's, how does
05:21life change anybody?
05:22I think, you know, he became who he is through the adventures that we played, and for whatever
05:30reason now, he's in this situation where he's just, it's this mundane sort of life.
05:35and I was telling somebody earlier, it's that Pacino, they pull me back in.
05:40Oh, that's a different movie, but pull him in.
05:43And it's just, you know, he's brought back into this life that he was, was he trying to
05:50get away from?
05:51Did he feel like that was his responsibility now that he's married and get that, you know,
05:56which I wasn't on board with at the beginning.
05:59Really?
05:59I wasn't really on board with the idea that, oh, he's married, and so now he's going to
06:04just stay away from him.
06:05Domesticated.
06:05He's domesticated, because Elena had that rush for adventure as well.
06:10So, it was a little strange, but, you know, maybe they had made a, and again, this is
06:15where you get to fill in your own blanks.
06:17Like, maybe they just made a decision, like, maybe we want to start a family, and this is
06:20more safe, and let's just calm down.
06:24Well, it's interesting.
06:25It's just interesting to see, like, life, you know, it's not always, like, the decisions
06:30you want to make.
06:31It's like life for Nate and Elena has pushed them to these circumstances, just the way we
06:37all are.
06:38You know, I think it was John Lennon who said, you know, life is what happens when you're
06:43busy making plans.
06:45You know, and I think that's exactly what happened to Nate and Elena.
06:48And there you go, there's reality back in the game that helps everybody relate to these
06:53characters more and more.
06:54What was it like for you, because we've done so many games, what was it like for you the
06:58first time, because we work so much in an abstraction, it's so much theater of the
07:03mind, and we have to make believe so much.
07:04What was it like for you the first time you saw that game come up, and you saw your character
07:10and all the work that you put in?
07:12What was it like for you?
07:14With Drake?
07:15Yeah.
07:16Oh.
07:17Um.
07:19You know, I don't really know if it was, it was cool the first time, because we actually
07:23got a bunch of cinematic scenes cut as a movie for the first one, so you get to watch it.
07:28And it was the first time I actually got to see what all the animators and the designers
07:32did, and how it made it move and walk and run, and it was so cool.
07:36And then I actually did get to play some of the stuff, and I remember being on the first
07:40game on the jet skis, going up and trying to get up this rock, and it was driving me nuts.
07:44and it didn't really hit, it was like, it was cool, it was a cool game, you know, and
07:50by then I had done games, and I heard myself in them.
07:53So, but the biggest thing was for me, for me was, I think when Uncharted 2 had come out,
08:00and my son, he was playing it, and he'd just be like, and he turned to me, he goes, that's
08:08you.
08:09And I'm like, yeah, I know, I did the, he goes, no, but that's you.
08:11And, and he had seen something that I, I didn't see, because I, I, just a different perspective,
08:16and, and when I saw it through his eyes, it's, it's the thing that kind of registered more
08:21for me.
08:21You saw the work, he saw the character.
08:23Yeah, and it was like, oh, because I don't know about you, but every time I see my work,
08:28I think, oh, I should have done that differently.
08:31Sure.
08:31I can't help but self-critique.
08:32It's, it's a, it's a, it's a curse of this business, that you just think of all the other
08:37choices that you could have made in that moment, you know, I may have done that.
08:41But, but for me, anytime it's animated, and especially the stuff with Uncharted, it's
08:45always been amazing with, seeing what they put together from us in those ridiculous looking
08:51suits, and, and to see what they, what they, what they do, is absolutely, it's amazing.
08:58I mean, I did the same thing we did with The Last of Us.
09:00I remember just running around with, with Ashley that, those days that we had to do it, and,
09:05you know, but, and it was such a different tone, but it was that same collaborative spirit,
09:10that, that effort, that, that excitement, that, wow, we're making something really cool.
09:14And then you see it, you know, it's, I just can't speak enough about what, what they do
09:20in that magic building to, to, to make, you know, to make it real.
09:26Well, I'll say this, the, one of my favorite memories so far is actually one of the first
09:31shoots that we had, where Sam and Nathan come together again, and just the scene of them
09:38coming out and sitting down on the bench, kind of looking out over the ocean, and Sam
09:43saying, what have I missed?
09:46Catch me up.
09:47Yeah.
09:48You know, on, on the greatest things, and it's weird to think that the guy who got
09:53called in for an audition, had no idea that he was going to be on a 10-year adventure,
09:58and a guy that played a game almost 10 years later is sitting side by side with him, and
10:04even more so, staring up at a castle trying to figure out how we're going to scale it.
10:07And what's ironic is, as the actors go, you probably knew more about what was happening,
10:12what had happened in those adventures, because I'm a terrible gamer.
10:16I love gaming, but I'm so bad at it, my son will grab it and go, oh, you're just, I
10:22mean,
10:22how many times is that, no, the kid, Uncharted 3 is, oh, you're just killing yourself over
10:28and over, I hand him the machine.
10:30Daddy doesn't want to commit suicide anymore.
10:31Oh, and then he gets you through the level, I'm like, good boy, good boy, double your allowance.
10:35He doesn't get an allowance.
10:38But, yeah, it's, it, those scenes were cool, because those were some of the early ones we
10:42did, where we just, when you walk in, it, I remember, it was cool.
10:48It was cool, because people don't realize it's like, I open a fake door.
10:52Right.
10:53I know it's you, and yet, you know, when you, when you really fall into these characters
10:59and you really close it, I mean, I don't know if I ever told you, but I'd open that door
11:02and say, Sam, and it's like, you know, I'm very close with my own brother, and I'd open
11:07that door and I'd get goosebumps, like, I did for real, even though I know it's your ugly
11:12mug on the other side of the fake door, that I can see through, but, and I think that's
11:18something that's really cool about doing this, this process, is that you can, you can play
11:22make-believe, like you did when you were a kid, you know, and it's, and, and then they
11:27take that and make it look better than even your imagination can, can, can put together.
11:33I think that's what makes it so special to, to me, to you, and to everybody who plays.
11:38Pleasure having you on it, man.
11:39Thanks, man.
11:40Thanks for having me.
11:41I'm sure there's many more things, with you becoming a big director and all.
11:46Ooh.
11:46I might be looking for work soon.
11:49There's no five in sight.
11:51You should call me.
11:53But until then, I say we go back to El Castello and get you some of that red wine.
11:59Let's get a drink.
12:00I'm buying.
12:02It's free.
12:08For the players.
12:12For the players.
