Everything You Need to Know About the Highly Anticipated HBO 'The Last of Us' Series

HBO's 'The Last of Us' series, adapted from the popular video game released in 2013 and 2020, is set to premiere on January 15th. The series has quickly gained attention from both TV and movie fans alike. In this article, we'll delve into the details of the show including the cast, plot, and all other information you need to know. So, if you're excited for the series, read on for more information!

'The Last of Us' series, which is indispensable for computer game enthusiasts, met with gamers in 2013.

The game, which was brought up again as 'Remastered' in 2014, conquered hearts again with its second game in 2020.

'The Last of Us 2', released for PlayStation 4, became one of the most award-winning games of that period.

What kind of story did 'The Last of Us' game series offer us?

A character named Joel Miller is hired to take care of the plague illness of the character Ellie and accompany the doctors during this process. Meanwhile, the characters are dealing with many post-apocalyptic problems, such as the infected groups, cannibals and giraffes left over from Boston and Salt Lake City.

'The Last of Us' series also follows the story in the game.

But the series is generally expected to include elements from the series 'The Last of Us 2'. Mazin, who is one of the co-producers of the series, said: ''We expanded some of the changes we made in the story even more and filled it in. There was an episode where Joel and Ellie confronted the motorcycle gang, but we didn't add it to the series. If we had added it, there would have been some departmental nonsense and disconnections in the structure of the series.''

In the trailer of the series, the season is mainly winter.

This means that this series may have a topic starting from the end of the first game. In addition, the first season will completely tell the story of the first game. We also see the monologues of Joel, Ellie and other characters in the trailer. So, nothing we don't know so far has been given in the trailer.
