Players, Uncharted and more: Top 5 captivating video game-inspired films and shows to watch on OTT platforms
FirstpostFrom Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg’s Uncharted to Idris Elba’s Sonic the Hedgehog 2, these video game-inspired shows and films promise to take you on an entertaining ride. If you’re passionate about the potential of this space and its growth, here’s a list of shows and movies we recommend you watch across Voot Select, Netflix, Disney+Hotstar & Amazon Prime Video. From the Peabody Award-winning creators of “American Vandal ’’, Players is a mockumentary that follows a fictional pro-League of Legends esports team, as they pursue their first championship after years of close calls and heartache. That said, Ben Schwartz’s gleefully chaotic work as Sonic, with a superb Idris Elba added to the mix as the echidna Knuckles, makes Sonic the Hedgehog 2 firmly one of the better films on this list.
