Tom Holland is really growing on me. It was nice to see him break out of his shell in The Devil All The Time. I was worried he was going to get typecasted for more comedic roles after Spiderman and wouldn't get serious ones. Glad to be wrong.
I think the director & actor combination makes me look forward to this film. Hope it is good. Even if the story isn't the greatest, I think it can be carried by those factors alone.
If his performance is good in this as well, I have increased faith in his role as Nathan Drake. The more he matures a bit, I find myself warming to him as a young Drake. He fits the bill.
