The widely awaited TV version of The Last of Us, a beloved video game by Naughty Dog about finding a family in the midst of a zombie apocalypse, has finally received its first trailer from HBO. The new trailer was made available as part of Outbreak Day, also known as The Last of Us Day, which is an annual event held by franchise creator Naughty Dog.
Pedro Pascal is introduced in the new trailer as Joel, a middle-aged guy who turns to delivery work after a devastating virus nearly exterminates all of humanity. The series will follow Joel as he leads Bella Ramsey’s Ellie to a lab so researchers can examine her blood, just like in the first game. Ellie’s body may hold the key to curing the virus and regaining control of society because she appears immune to it. The incredibly hostile Infected are avoided by Joe and Ellie as they move across the wreckage of the United States in The Last of Us. They must also contend with other survivors, some of whom are prepared to do everything to collect supplies and guarantee their own life.
There are many zombie stories available today, but The Last of Us captured the hearts of millions of fans with its intensely emotional tale. The unbreakable friendship that Joel and Ellie develop while collaborating to stay alive raises the stakes of the story. The series trailer demonstrates how closely the HBO adaptation will follow the video game, with some places being faithfully adapted for television. It primarily demonstrates, though, how ideal Pascal and Ramsey are for the parts they are playing. Pascal and Ramsey are brilliant in the new trailer, just like Joel and Ellie are what keeps The Last of Us together. After watching this trailer, we can all relax knowing that the show is in good hands.
