Last we heard about the <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2009/06/26/uncharted-drakes-fortune-movie-underway-at-columbia-pictures/">movie version of <em>Uncharted</em></a>, it was in the hands of writer Kyle Ward, who most recently penned the big screen adaptation of <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/kane-and-lynch"><em>Kane and Lynch</em></a>. According to a rumor being reported by <a href="http://www.latinoreview.com/news/exclusive-conan-writing-duo-chart-course-for-drake-s-fortune-8619">LatinoReview.com</a>, Ward has been removed by Sony and producer Avi Arad, who didn't want to wait on the script while Ward finished his current project, <em>Hitman 2</em>.<br />
<br />
Reportedly, Sony is considering filling his slot with Thomas Dean Donnelly and Joshua Oppenheimer, the duo that's currently writing a relaunch of <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0816462/"><em>Conan</em></a>.<br />
<br />
The bigger surprise, of course, is that movies based on video games have scripts.
