Joe Flanigan has also started an online campaign for the role of Nathan Drake and has asked us fans to support him, which we are more than happy to do. I think he would be a perfect choice for the role. Not only is there the uncanny physical resemblance between Nathan Drake Joe Flanigan, but he is also very charismatic and athletic, just perfect for the “rugged action hero” with a quirky, witty sense of humor a la Harrison Ford in Indiana Jones.
Joe Flanigan would be the perfect choice for this role. I also love Nathan Fillion, he is a really great actor, but I cannot imagine him as Nathan Drake. Sorry, Mr. Fillion!
There’s only one actor for this role: JOE FLANIGAN! He’s a great actor, and has not only charisma but also the required quirky wits and the look, not to forget the physical requirement as he’s a very active sportive guy. He’s just the perfect choice for this role. So I say: Joe Flanigan for Nathan Drake!!
Joe Flanigan is the perfect choice to play Nathan Drake. He has the look, the athleticism, charisma and machismo to bring the role to life.
Joe Flanigan should be cast as Nathan Drake, he not only looks like Nathan Drake but he is a great character actor. He would make a great action hero. His role in Stargate Atlantis says it all. I vote over and over again for Joe Flannigan as Nathan Drake!
