Yesterday Joe Carnahan spoke about his screenplay for the upcoming Uncharted film adaptation, stating that: “I definitely didn’t write it as a PG-13 movie.”
The decision to go for an R-rating has caused some controversy, with one fan tweeting Naughty Dog’s creative director Neil Druckmann to express their opinion. However, it appears that Naughty Dog, the developer behind the Uncharted series has not been involved in development of the movie, with Druckmann responding to the tweet with the following…
No one at Naughty Dog has read the script. No idea what the movie is about let alone its tone. https://t.co/lc64Pevqyk

So it appears that Naughty Dog has had no creative input into the movie so far, and with production set to get underway in the next few months under director Shawn Levy (Night at the Museum), it would seem unlikely that is going to change.
