Last year, TV network HBO announced that it will adapt The Last of Us video game into a TV series with Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann attached to the production. In a recent exclusive report, The Hollywood Reporter revealed that Ellie will be played by Bella Ramsey, known for her role as Lyanna Mormont in HBO’s Game of Thrones.

Shortly after, Deadline revealed in an exclusive piece of its own that The Mandalorian's Pedro Pascal will star as Joel in the live-action adaptation.

Craig Mazin, creator of HBO’s Chernobyl series, is responsible for the script and executive production along with Neil Druckmann. The pilot will be directed by Russian filmmaker Kantemir Balagov.

Seems like apt casting. This show could be good. I'm cautiously optimistic!

I just hope it doesn't turn into another Walking Dead and outstay its welcome. It would be good if they have a story to tell and commit to just that.

Rename the show to "The Walking Dad"

Rumors on the net say that Adam Sandler will be playing as a golf club in this adaptation.

Now I want to see Joel's dear scene but with Adam Sandler instead of Abby.
