In addition to his streaming expertise, he has a wealth of experience in watching sports and documentaries, having spent many years following these genres. He is an avid fan of The Detectorists and Blue Planet, and also has a keen interest in English football.
If Hollywood action films and epic video games are your thing, then Uncharted, the Hollywood adaptation of the hugely popular video game franchise of the same name, will be right up your street.
Despite being delayed by COVID-19, the movie was a big hit at the box office, and a sequel is already in production.
If you didn’t manage to catch Uncharted at the cinema, the good news is that you can now watch it on Netflix.
The slightly less good news is that it is not available on Netflix everywhere.
But, with the help of a little tool, it is possible to avoid this and use your Netflix subscription to watch Uncharted no matter where in the world you are. And in this guide, we are going to show you exactly how to do it.
Where can I stream Uncharted?
Netflix does have the rights to show Uncharted to its subscribers. But unfortunately, this only applies to subscribers based in the USA, Italy, or India.
If you find yourself anywhere else right now, for example, travelling, you will not find Uncharted in your Netflix library. Luckily there’s a way around this which I’ll share with you below.
How do I watch Uncharted on Netflix?
If you are not fortunate enough to be in USA, Italy, or India right now, you will need to use a VPN app to alter your ‘virtual’ location.
A VPN works by redirecting your internet traffic through an external server which can be based in another country.
When you do this, it makes it appear to all the websites you visit, including Netflix, that you are located in that country.
The good news is, the VPN app does all the hard work for you.
So, to watch Uncharted, all you have to do is connect to a VPN server located in the USA, Italy, or India, then log into Netflix as usual. They will think you are in that country, give you access to that library, and, hey presto, Uncharted is right there for you to watch.
Where to get a VPN?
A swift Google search will turn up hundreds of VPN providers, but not all are right for switching Netflix locations.
ExpressVPN is the best option for this job.
It works with multiple Netflix libraries and is also fast enough to stream movies like Uncharted, even in HD.
There are lots of ExpressVPN apps for all the devices you are likely to use to stream Uncharted. It even has a 30-day money-back guarantee which gives you a month to try the service out before you commit any money.
If you don’t like the cut of ExpressVPN’s jib and want to check out some other VPNs, two other provider options you might want to consider are NordVPN and CyberGhost VPN.
Both also have a 30-day money-back guarantee and work well with multiple Netflix libraries. But, for our money, ExpressVPN outguns them both.
However, the choice is entirely yours.

What is Uncharted?
Uncharted is an action-adventure video game franchise that has spawned multiple games since it emerged in 2007.
The movie has been in development for almost as long but finally hit our screens earlier this year.
It follows Nathan Drake, who is recruited by a fortune hunter called Victor Sullivan to find the lost Magellan treasure, which he had tried to find with his long-lost brother years earlier.
Along with Chloe Frazer, a contact of Sullivan’s, they travel to Spain and then the Philippines in search of clues and the elusive treasure.
There is plenty of action, angst, and double-crossing galore before the film sets up the sequel after a typically big and high-octane finish.
It is like Indiana Jones on steroids, and while the critics weren’t so keen, “90% of viewers enjoyed the film.” Well, you can’t please everyone all the time, and this just proves that the critics are certainly not always right.
Who stars in Uncharted?
The lead role of Nathan Drake in Uncharted is played by Tom Holland, a young British actor well-used to the rigours of playing the all-action hero from his time as Spiderman.
The role of Victor Sullivan is played by Mark Walberg (The Fighter, Transformers, and hundreds more movies), while Chloe Frazer is portrayed brilliantly by Sophia Ali (Greys Anatomy, Faking It).
There is a great turn as the baddie by Antonio Banderas (Desperado, Interview with the Vampire) and also good performances from Tati Gabrielle (The Owl House), Rudy Pankow (Outer Banks), Steven Waddington (Last of the Mohicans, Kursk), and Pilou Asbæk (Borgen, Game of Thrones).
Summary
Uncharted is all-action rip-roaring Hollywood fun and applies all the best bits from the videogame franchise to make a hit movie.
For Netflix users in the USA, Italy, or India, it is available to enjoy now, but if you’re outside those countries right now, you will need to use a VPN to stream it.
ExpressVPN is the best one to choose. Just sign up for your preferred subscription package, download the ExpressVPN app, log in to your account, connect to a server in the USA, and then enjoy everything that Uncharted has to offer.
It’s plenty, I can assure you.
