AceShowbiz - Nine years after it was first announced, "The Last of Us" is finally coming to the small screen. Based on Naught Dog Studios' critically acclaimed sneaky and scary survival horror game, the series is set in 2033, 20 years after the world’s population has been decimated by a fungal infestation of the brain that initially makes its victims violently insane and feral, and later destroys their eyes, forcing them to use echo-location to find people - and rip their throats out.
"The Last of Us" will feature Pedro Pascal ("Game of Thrones", "The Mandalorian") as he's tapped to play the role of father figure Joel. Meanwhile, Ellie will be played by Pedro's "Game of Thrones" co-star Bella Ramsey. As for the people working behind-the-scenes, there will be Craig Mazin, the Emmy-winning creator of HBO's "Chernobyl", who produces the series alongside Neil Druckmann, the creator behind the hit video game series. "The Last of Us" is coming to HBO and HBOMax sometime in 2023.
