Jason Statham (/ˈsteɪθəm/ STAY-thəm; born 26 July 1967) is an English actor and producer. He is known for portraying tough, gritty, or violent characters in various action thriller films and has been credited for leading the resurgence of action films during the 2000s and 2010s. By 2017, his films had grossed over £1.1 billion ($1.5 billion), making him one of the industry's most bankable stars. While working at local market stalls, Statham began practising Chinese martial arts, kickboxing, and karate recreationally in his youth. An avid footballer and diver, he was a member of Britain's national diving team and competed for England in the 1990 Commonwealth Games. Shortly after, he was asked to model for French Connection, Tommy Hilfiger, and Levi's in various advertising campaigns. Statham's history of working at market stalls inspired his casting in the Guy Ritchie crime films Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (1998) and Snatch (2000). Both films were commercial hits, and they helped catapult Statham to stardom. He played supporting roles in the American action films Turn It Up (2000), Ghosts of Mars and The One (2001). From 2002 to 2008, he played the title role in the first three films in the Transporter film series (2002–2008), which solidified his status as an action star. In 2003, he appeared in the ensemble heist action film The Italian Job. He went on to play leading roles in the commercially successful films Crank (2006), The Bank Job (2008), The Mechanic (2011), Homefront (2013), Mechanic: Resurrection (2016), The Meg (2018), Wrath of Man (2021), Meg 2: The Trench (2023), and The Beekeeper (2024). Statham has also starred as Lee Christmas in the ensemble action film series The Expendables (2010–2023) and as Deckard Shaw in the Fast & Furious franchise (2013–2023), including the spin-off Hobbs & Shaw (2019), which he co-produced. His voice acting work includes the documentaries Thai Boxing: A Fighting Chance (2002), Truth in 24 (2008) and its 2012 sequel, and the animated film Gnomeo & Juliet (2011).

The Uncharted series is one of the most entertaining series of games that I've ever played through. The games really have a lot to write home about, from a varied cast of interesting characters with a wealth of charm and personality, immersive gameplay that's equal parts entertaining as well as challenging, a grandiose and often legitimately cinematic feel that breathes so much life into each entry in the series, an endless assortment of exhilerating and thrilling swashbuckling action mandatory for any game in the action adventure genre, and a style of storytelling that does so much to truly encapsulate the feel of an authentic and compelling treasure hunter narrative. The games are truly excellent in so many ways. However, when it comes to the subject of adaptations, I think we can all agree that the series got a serious raw deal with the 2022 Uncharted movie, and the less said about that thing the better! But I digress. Anyway, I thought it would be fun to cast the characters in the series in a way that would actually faithfully represent the characters as depicted in the games, so that's exactly what I'm going to do. Before we start though, just know that this is going to include all primary/central characters from the four mainline series entries (Uncharted 1-4) as well as Golden Abyss (the vita game) and also the Lost Legacy spinoff game. But enough talk, let's get started shall we?
