From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Rubén Blades Bellido de Luna (born July 16, 1948) is a Panamanian salsa singer, songwriter, lawyer, actor, Latin jazz musician, and politician, performing musically most often in the Afro-Cuban and Latin jazz genres. As songwriter, Blades brought the lyrical sophistication of Central American nueva canción and Cuban nueva trova as well as experimental tempos and political inspired Nuyorican salsa to his music, creating thinking persons' (salsa) dance music. Blades has composed dozens of musical hits, the most famous of which is "Pedro Navaja," a song about a neighborhood thug who appears to die during a robbery (his song "Sorpresas" continues the story), inspired by "Mack the Knife." He also composed and sings what many Panamanians consider their second national anthem. The song is titled "Patria" (Fatherland). He is an icon in Panama and is much admired throughout Latin America, and managed to attract 18% of the vote in his failed attempt to win the Panamanian presidency in 1994. In September 2004, he was appointed minister of tourism by Panamanian president Martín Torrijos for a five-year term. He holds a law degree from the University of Panama and a master's in international law from Harvard University. He is married to singer Luba Mason.

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?
