HBO today announced that The Last of Us is to receive a series adaptation Co-produced by Sony Pictures Television and PlayStation Productions – their first television series.  

Award-winning pair Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann will write and executive produce, Carolyn Strauss (Game of Throne, Chernobyl) and Evan Wells are also Executive Producers. 

I can’t believe we get to team up with one of my favorite writers to bring Ellie and Joel’s journey to HBO. https://t.co/GNsl0sUVSK

The story – in the TV adaptation – takes place twenty years after the destruction of modern civilisation. Joel needs to get Ellie out of the quarantine zone and the pair journey across the U.S., relying on each other to survive. 

The HBO series will cover the original game with the possibility of additional content based on The Last of Us Part II which releases this May 29th. 

“This is a true thrill for us at Sony Pictures Television. ‘The Last of Us’ is a brilliant achievement in storytelling and character development, and we are lucky to have the opportunity to work with this team to adapt it,” said Chris Parnell, co-President of Sony Pictures Television Studios. “This is the first of many shows we intend to develop with our friends at PlayStation Productions.

Lachlan's passion for gaming started when he played DOS games like Commander Keen and Wacky Races. His passion grew when he discovered his Aunt's Atari 2600 and was given a Game Boy for Christmas from his Pa. His favourite console has been the PlayStation 1. Right now he has become a little lazy with gaming but still enjoys the occasional FIFA session. He hopes to get back into playing games more regularly so he can switch off from the real world like he did as a Kid. He's excited about the introduction of VR and hopes for some great VR titles.
