Nolan North Doesn't Play Uncharted But His Kids Do
Actor Nolan North is a household name amongst most PS3 owners…not so much with Xbox 360 and PC gamers. Still, any core gamers is familiar with the name Nolan North because he’s the voice and actor behind the incredibly popular Uncharted series, which is, by far, one of the best adventure entertainment properties in all of entertainment.

It’s kind of the complete opposite of how Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie raise their kids…you know, with Pitt wanting his kids playing in dirt instead of playing stuff like Brain Age.

North also talks about a really interesting design aspect to the latest Uncharted, which included tons of adlibbing and how a certain scenario in the game actually formed around fellow voice actor Graham McTavish’s ad-lib for the loveably sarcastic character, Charlie Cutter. North mentioned in the interview that…

You can check out the rest of the Grantland interview with Nolan North, who talks about the casting process for Uncharted as well as Batman: Arkham City and a few other projects he’s worked on.
