HBO has revealed the first images of its television adaptation of The Last of Us from Naughty Dog, on Sunday, giving fans a brief glimpse of the series slated to arrive in 2023. Sadly, it’s nothing too revealing, it’s just a 20-second trailer dedicated to showcasing what’s coming to HBO Max in the coming months and next year is focused on The Last of Us and its stars, Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey.
Like the earlier glimpses we’ve had of the series of The Last of Us, the teaser trailer looks extremely faithful to the PlayStation games. Ramsey as Ellie and Pascal as Joel recreate a heated moment of dialogue from Naughty Dog’s video game, and the heartbreaking opening of The Last of Us with Joel’s daughter appears briefly. The footage also teases the remains of a Clicker, a creature that threatens the characters’ lives during the journey, as well as giving us a brief glimpse of Nick Offerman as Bill.
The Last of Us tells the story of Joel and Ellie as they roam a post-apocalyptic United States that has been ravaged by a mysterious disease that turns people into dangerous monsters. Along the way, they encounter all sorts of characters, some friendly and many others just as dangerous as the infected they’re running from.
The series is created by Craig Mazin, the creator and writer behind Chernobyl from HBO, and produced by Neil Druckmann of Naughty Dog, the studio that developed the two The Last of Us video games. The series will also star Gabriel Luna (Terminator: Dark Fate) as Tommy and Anna Torv (Mindhunter) as Tess. The Last of Us will have 10 episodes in its first season. There has been no official announcement of a second season.
