HBO - The Last of Us

@HBO: Look for the light.

@clmazin and @Neil_Druckmann to develop the series adaptation of #TheLastOfUs, coming soon to HBO: http://itsh.bo/thelastofus https://twitter.com/HBO/status/12356...572032/video/1

The Last of Us' Series in the Works at HBO From 'Chernobyl' Creator Craig Mazin, Neil Druckmann (Exclusive)

MARCH 05, 2020 9:30AMby*Borys Kit, Patrick Shanley

Craig Mazin, the creator of the acclaimed limited series*Chernobyl,*is reteaming with HBO adapt*The Last of Us, the massive Sony PlayStation video game franchise.
In a rare development in the world of video game adaptations, the writer and creative director of the game, Neil Druckmann, is also involved, and will work with Mazin to pen and executive produce what is intended to be a series.

Carolyn Strauss will also executive produce along with Evan Wells, the president of Naughty Dog, the Santa Monica-based developer of the game. The project is a co-production with Sony Pictures Television and in association with PlayStation Productions and it will be the first television series from PlayStation Productions.
Originally launched in 2013, Sony and Naughty Dog’s*The Last of Us*garnered critical praise for its engrossing tale of the post-apocalypse centered on the relationship between Joel, a smuggler in this new world, and Ellie, a teenager who may be a key to a cure for the deadly pandemic.
Joel, a hardened survivor, is hired to smuggle the14-year-old girl out of an oppressive quarantine zone. 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. The HBO series will cover the events of the original game, which was written by Druckmann, with the possibility of additional content based on the forthcoming game sequel,*The Last of Us Part II, which will release on May 29, 2020.
Mazin, who is said to be an avid player of the game, stated, “Neil Druckmann is without question the finest storyteller working in the video game medium, and*The Last of Us*is his magnum opus. Getting a chance to adapt this breathtaking work of art has been a dream of mine for years, and I’m so honored to do it in partnership with Neil.”
“From the first time I sat down to talk with Craig I was equally blown away by his approach to narrative and his love and deep understanding of*The Last of Us,” said Druckmann in a statement. “With*Chernobyl, Craig and HBO created a tense, harrowing, emotional masterpiece. I couldn’t think of better partners to bring the story of*The Last of Us*to life as a television show.”
Last of Us*won numerous “game of the year” awards and went on to sell more than 17 million copies across both its original release on the PlayStation 3 and a remastered version on the PlayStation 4.
“This is an incredibly exciting opportunity for us to partner with Craig, Neil, Carolyn and the teams at Sony, Naughty Dog and PlayStation to bring the virtual world of this acclaimed game to life,” stated HBO programming president Casey Bloys.
“This is the first of many shows we intend to develop with our friends at PlayStation Productions,” said Chris Parnell, co-president of Sony Pictures Television Studios.*The Last of Us*is a brilliant achievement in storytelling and character development, and we are lucky to have the opportunity to work with this team to adapt it.”
Druckmann is a longtime vet of Naughty Dog, starting as a programming intern in 2004. In 2007, he was given the role of game designer on*Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, the first installment in the action adventure series. In 2013, he created*The Last of Us, based on a concept he developed as a student at Carnegie Mellon University.
Mazin’s*Chernobyl*tackled a bleak and complex true-life event and became a must-see show for HBO. The show won an Emmy for outstanding limited series and landed one for Mazin for outstanding writing. Mazin also won a PGA and a WGA Award.


Holy shit this is gonna be awesome.

not liking a little girl character(in a post apocalyptic show no less) because the actress is ugly is a weird point of contention. Like why is that your focus?

I'm sorry that they didn't find someone hot enough to play a 14 year old girl for you to look at. You'll have to stick to your child porn for that, I guess.

You're upset that the girl playing a 14 year old isn't hot enough.

I don't want it to be. It just is cuz shes so ugly you cant run from it. Regardless, I fail to see the amazing originality in the show. Zombies - from a virus or fungus - is the least likely of all possible apocalyptic scenarios. I love apocalypse movies that AREN'T zombie themed although I did think I am Legend was pretty good.

Also would have liked more immediate focus on how the world reacted instead of going

Do not want hot, there is no such thing in a child actor. Just not ugly so my eyes hurt. Entertainers are not supposed to be ugly. You ever see any ugly babies or child actors? No.

That’s what I was thinking when I first read that comment too.

Like I never played the game, I know nothing about the characters other than what they showed on screen in the show. I had a genuine emotional reaction to it despite only knowing Frank and Bill for like what 45 minutes. Really well written and acted episode

It took me forever to figure out where the guy that isn't Nick Offerman was from then I realized he's the hotel manager guy from season 1 of White Lotus. They both killed it in this episode.

seriously doubt that Chevrolet S10 is still running in 2023. It's 2023 now in normal civilized life and the remaining S10s are running on fumes and duct tape, let alone one that is supposed to get you from Boston to Wyoming in a post apocalyptic wasteland.

Joel even mentions he doubts the piece of shit

That was a really weird episode and not sure exactly why it was even made. Hopefully we can all move on from that which clearly was added to meet some sort of quota since zero part of that was in the game.
However it was cool to see the flour theory confirmed.
