The Last of Us is an American post-apocalyptic drama television series created by Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann for HBO. Based on the 2013 video game developed by Naughty Dog, the series follows Joel (Pedro Pascal), a smuggler tasked with escorting the teenage Ellie (Bella Ramsey) across a post-apocalyptic United States. The supporting cast features Gabriel Luna as Joel's younger brother Tommy, Merle Dandridge as resistance leader Marlene, and Anna Torv as Joel's smuggler partner Tess. In this video DreamcastGuy reviews the Last of us TV show while comparing it to the game that originally came out on PS3 and later came to PS4 Pro and PlayStation 5.
The Last of Us, said to be the largest television production in Canadian history, was filmed in Alberta from July 2021 to June 2022. It is the first HBO series based on a video game, and is a joint production by Sony Pictures Television, PlayStation Productions, Naughty Dog, the Mighty Mint, and Word Games. The first season consists of nine episodes written by Druckmann, who wrote and co-directed the original game, and Mazin. The score was composed by Gustavo Santaolalla, who composed for the game, and David Fleming. The series began airing on January 15, 2023. It received acclaim from critics, who praised the performances, writing, production design, and score; several considered it the best live-action adaptation of a video game. Pedro Pascal as Joel, a hardened middle-aged survivor who is tormented by the trauma of his past. Joel is tasked with smuggling a young girl, Ellie, out of a quarantine zone and across the United States.[5] Unlike in the games, which required Joel to have moments of near-superhuman abilities in order to allow the player to progress, he is more vulnerable in the series—he is hard of hearing in one ear due to a gunshot and his knees ache when he stands.[6] Pascal became available for a new series after the release of the second season of The Mandalorian, attracting several offers for projects from large networks, of which he chose The Last of Us,[5] partly to work with co-creator Craig Mazin.[7] The Mandalorian producers granted Pascal permission to work on the series.[8] He is reportedly earning $600,000 per episode, making him one of the highest-paid American television stars.[9] Pascal was chosen for his ability to portray a tough, tortured, and vulnerable character who suppresses his emotions until necessary.[10] A non-gamer, Pascal watched his nephew play the beginning of the first game because he lacked the skill to play it himself; he found Joel to be "so impressive" but was concerned about imitating the games too closely, instead choosing to "create a healthy distance" and allow the showrunners to decide the characterization.[11] Pascal based Joel's voice on his own experiences growing up in San Antonio, Texas, paring it back from the Southern accent used in the game. In the video games, Joel is portrayed by Troy Baker.
Bella Ramsey as Ellie, a 14-year-old girl who displays much defiance and anger but has a private need for kinship and belonging. She is immune to the Cordyceps infection and may be the key to creating a vaccine.[14] In keeping with the games, she is a lesbian.[15] More than 100 actors had been considered for Ellie;[16] the producers sought a performer who could portray a resourceful, quirky, and potentially violent character. After watching Ramsey's audition tape, they reached out to David Benioff and D. B. Weiss—showrunners of Game of Thrones, in which Ramsey had starred—who assured them of her talent. Ramsey secured the role less than a month after her audition.
