HBO shared a brief glimpse of the series in sizzle reel of upcoming shows.
Back in 2020, HBO announced that they were in planning stages for a live-action series based on the blockbuster 2013 video game The Last of Us. Since that initial announcement, the production has been very slowly releasing a drip feed of information about the show, from its cast to a handful of production screenshots. Over the weekend, in conjunction with the release of the hotly anticipated House of the Dragon, HBO released a sizzle reel of their upcoming shows, with a teaser for the Last of Us included.

The Last of Us stars Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey as middle-aged Joel and young Ellie, respectively, in a world ravaged by a fungal zombie plague. Rather than the monsters themselves, the story focuses on what happens in a society that’s become hyper-controlled by localized police states in order to preserve some semblance of order in the face of encroaching horror. Joel is tasked by an associate to smuggle Ellie out of a quarantine zone and on a cross-country trip, as she may contain the secret to stopping the zombie plague.
The Last of Us, The Idol, Succession, The White Lotus, The White House Plumbers, Industry, and so much more are coming soon to @hbomax.⁰
