Uncharted is slated to hit theaters in the United States on Friday. Other markets have already begun screening the film. It is the first movie Fleischer has directed since Venom, having stepped aside for the Let There Be Carnage sequel. “It’s always nerve wracking when you take on something that’s beloved by fans,” Fleischer said of Uncharted, making a statement which he may also apply to Venom. “And all you can do is hope that you don’t screw it up. So, the fact that you appreciate it makes me really proud and happy.” The full interview premiered on Wednesday’s Phase Zero broadcast.
