HBO Max's THE LAST OF US Series Gets an Intense and Thrilling Full Trailer
HBO Max has released the full trailer for its series adaptation of the hit video game The Last of Us, and it looks like it’s going to be an awesome adaptation! As a fan of the game, I’ve been very excited about this show and it looks like the creative team behind the series is going to deliver a show that the fans are going to enjoy. It seems to me like they perfectly captured the tone of the game.
Pedro Pascal stars in the series as Joel, and Bella Ramsey is taking on the role of Ellie in the upcoming video game adaptation. They are joined by Gabriel Luna as Joel's brother Tommy, Anna Torv, Merle Dandrige, Nick Offerman, Storm Reid, Nico Parker, Gabriel Luna, Jeffrey Pierce, and Murray Bartlett.
The Last of Us takes place 20 years after modern civilization has been destroyed by a deadly virus. Joel (Pascal), a hardened survivor, is hired to smuggle Ellie (Ramsey), a 14-year-old girl, out of an oppressive quarantine zone to the Fireflies, a cure-searching organization. What starts as a small job soon becomes a brutal, heartbreaking journey, as they both must traverse across the U.S. and depend on each other for survival.
Craig Mazin, the creator of HBO’s acclaimed limited series Chernobyl, wrote The Last of Us and is also executive producing with Neil Druckmann, who is the writer and creative director of the game.
The Last of Us is set for release on HBO Max on January 15th, so we won’t have to wait much longer!
