Happy Last of Us day, everyone!

We finally have our first full look at The Mandalorian’s Pedro Pascal and Game of Thrones’ Bella Ramsey as Joel and Ellie in the highly anticipated Last of Us HBO Max series.

The series sees the duo on the run in a world on the verge of collapse and overrun by monsters and it looks like it’s very, very faithful to the game… and the Clickers are terrifying.

Could this be the first truly successful game-to-series adaptation?

The show is being developed by HBO and the game publisher, Naughty Dog and promises to remain faithful to the games and, if this is the case, we could be in for seriously scary and exciting ride.

The show is being written and produced by Naughty Dog’s co-president Neil Druckmann and Craig Mazin who wrote on Chernobyl

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
