The Last of Us TV Trailer Revealed, Out Next Year

This looks incredible and the clickers look SO GOOD.

I AM PUMPED.

Didn't have much faith in this tbh. But after watching that trailer? It looks pretty damn good and faithful to the games. Actually excited for this now.

It’s a show alright. Pedro Pascal’s always great though so maybe he’ll make it worth a watch.

This trailer hits hard after playing the remake. I still don't think this needed a TV show adaptation but I'm still going to Check it out

Yep, looks suitably epic. Always had faith in this given the folks involved so looking forward to it.

Actually looks good really not a fan of the actor that plays Joel though

Although, not to be super picky but after ‘save who can you save’, there’s a really awkward transition. See better transitions in my A Level Film Studies haha. Still looks super though.

Looks good. To bad HBO issnt available in my European Country and Im not subbing to Sky for one Show since its really expensive and the contract is 12 months minimum

Edit: TV Now is not available in my country either

Arghh, I'm so conflicted..I want to love it because I love the game...but Ellie...I'm going to have to grow to love her again because she looks so different. Joel is close enough to not jar me...but Ellie...it's like not recognising my own kid...

The look of the show is ok though...and the Clicker noise...that's still so unsettling!

Absolutely terrifying (and that's just ellie...)

I need to get used to Bella acting as Ellie but goddamn this looks pretty promising. Looking forward to it!

This looks AMAZING! Even the two buildings leaning on each other is so close to the original!
AND THE CLICKER LOOKS SO GOOD! I seriously can't wait <3

PS: Anyone that complains about Ellie is so so so so...I don't even want to say it here

@ionmagi look for nowtv from sky. usually free trials too.

Calling it now. It's going to win some awards. Looks amazing

@AFCC
I adored Bella Ramsey in Game of Thrones, she was awesome as the little bear... But she doesn't look like her videogame counterpart at all.. we all know that Ellen Page would've been the perfect fit, but that's not gonna happen now.. so well yeah, let's see how this will work out. I'm pretty sure we'll get used to it.

@BrotherFilmriss careful. Don't upset people looking to get offended by using Page's old name. You'll get cancelled.

This and 1899 will be in my watchlist for the winter..I hope there is enough electricity to power my oled tv.

Looks absolutely incredible. Cannot wait.

@stvevan NowTV is only available in UK, Italy and Ireland sadly

Well this looks fabulous, glad the clickers sight and sound have stayed true to the game ,they look amazing.

Pedro really seems like a natural fit. Bella is definitely the less obvious choice but I'm confident she can pull it off.
The environments look amazing but my favorite part was the clicker sound!

@BrotherFilmriss Elliot Page.

For UK people like me, I'm pretty sure the show's gonna be on Sky Atlantic like most HBO shows

The story of the game is fantastic. It deserves to be experienced by people.

I have played the game multiple times, but my wife would never ever play it or get to appreciate it. An adaptation like this will let us share the story together. I'm excited about that.

Haters can hate all they want.

It does look very high quality for sure. I do wish it it followed a more unique path like maybe focusing on the time skip where Joel and Tommy survived together but oh well. Should be a fun watch.

This looks good. Like really, really good. I'm hoping it's a winter release, February at the very latest. We need dark nights to accompany shows like this.

NOW will have this in the UK, via Sky Atlantic, and it will give me a reason to go for the entertainment package having not used that side of things in ages. For anyone that doesn't know, you can get it for £9.99 per month, no contract, but you can usually get 3 months for £4.99 per month, especially if you're a member, as well as other offers, so I'd recommend getting a free trial at some point of either Cinema or Entertainment package so you've got an account ready for this to drop. Or if you have sports package already, for example, keep an eye out on the member offers page from time to time 😃

Why is Ellie a clicker?
Just joking. Great trailer that.

Well this looks fabulous, glad the clickers

This looks really good. I'm glad that the story of the Last of Us will be experienced by a whole new audience.

However, I'm just really struggling to be interested. After the video essay about Part 2 being better than Part 1 and the inevitable debate that formed in the comments section (guilty), I looked more into Druckmann's response to criticism of Part 2 and now I just can't with the guy. He just seems so pretentious. So, when I saw "the acclaimed video game creator Neil Druckmann" I threw up in my mouth a little bit.

@BrotherFilmriss she's way too old now anyway couldn't pull off a 14 year old

@MFTWrecks agree with this sentiment. TV is way more broad and accessible for all. The ideal of course is to make a show that pleases people that know the story already. But the main aim is always to expand and bring it to the many who do not.

Never played the Last of Us but always liked the look of Ellie. This one - not so much.

@Would_you_kindly ‘He’s’ way too old now. Not difficult.

@Would_you_kindly too old and way to big of a head ,its huge

I’m onboard with Pedro as Joel but Bella seems totally miscast as Ellie (looks-wise at least).

Whenever I see Bella I just hear, “We know no king but the king in the Norf, whose name is Stark.”

I’m watching the show regardless but I wish they had done a better job with the likeness of the characters (as they appeared in the game).

@tallythwack 😂 I liked her in that movie hard candy & the game beyond two souls

@liljazzy2 hopefully this is his ticket into Hollywood & out of game development lol

Wow I'm amazed at peoples reactions. To me this looks absolutely awful like some kind of live action school play.

If this ends up a great show I certainly hope it gets a physical 4K release but I'll settle for a standard 1080 bluray set. Game of Thrones and Westworld got physical 4K releases so there is a little hope at least. Refuse to have all these multiple different subs for 99% of their content I won't watch, pointless

Looks like what little I've seen of the game.

Not really into more post apocalyptic stuff so I'll probably catch it sometime but not worried about it.

@Would_you_kindly yeah she was cool in those ,although they did ruin the last season of umbrella academy by bringing their own personal life into a show about people with super powers,just cringe.

I want an airliner to hit the gas station in game now. It needs a remake!

@tallythwack especially as it meant the affair she had with Sissy in series 2 made less sense whenever she mentioned in series 3 how she wanted to get back to her, even though now she is a he. It wouldn't be a given that Sissy would want a relationship.

Looks like The Last of Us Part I Remake.

I'll watch it.

@BrotherFilmriss *Elliot Page

@riceNpea exactly,I just found it odd that a person who makes a living from playing pretend ,couldn't you know,pretend, nonsense pandering.

@BritneyfR_ee It's going to be difficult to watch this and not see Bella as her GoT character as Winterfell is under siege by the white walkers.🤷 Though I kind of have the same problem w/ Pedro Pascal, he's just so, Pedro Pascal looking. 😂

@Octane "The Last of Us Part I: The Movie of the Remake"

@tallythwack I was only saying that earlier. They show incorporated Ellen becoming Eliot purely for no reason other than to make a political statement was how it seemed to me. It made no sense plotwise to the story, as there was never any inclination that this was how Vanya was feeling leading up to the change, it felt forced, and totally changed the dynamics of so many relationships and plotlines. I've never seen a show take onto account events outside the show and shoehorn it into the story, unless perhaps something tragic happens like an actor passing away.

This isn't me saying what they did is bad, all good for Eliot, it's great that they're happy identifying as a man now, it just meant I found that it compromised the story and I lost interest.

@rjejr agreed. It's hard to unsee Lady Mormont because GoT is such a huge show, and Bella has such a distinguishable look.

@OMGitsLiamT yeah, I think if you’re referring to a person in the past tense then it’s ok to use the old pronouns? Like when he was in Juno, he was known as Ellen and used the she/her pronouns at the time. But if you talk about him in the present tense it would be he/him. I honestly don’t know? Like if they re-released Juno on 4K, do they have to change the name from Ellen to Elliot on the box? Or do they just leave it as Ellen? I know they changed his name on all the movies on Netflix where it lists the cast - it’s ‘Elliot Page’, not ‘Ellen Page’, even though they were known as ‘Ellen’ when the movie was originally made. So maybe I’m wrong? 🤷‍♂️

HBO made Silicon Valley and West World so they have my confidence, this is going to be a good product.

Well, the Clicker is recognisable at least 🤣

@GymratAmarillo I think it will be. Looks like they've spent some of the GoT money on this and if the effects are good I'm happy as I think the acting will be good.

But it's going to depend on the Joel/Ellie dynamic. I'm really going to have to be sold on the 2 of them becoming almost father and daughter.

@IonMagi use NowTV. It’s their pay monthly subscription service. Usually there are deals out there too to get first few months free etc.
grab it when it comes out

HBO have never let us down before. Lets go!

@Diani_beachboy only available in the UK, Italy and Ireland

Looks awesome!

@Kidfried Lol, I have them blocked so god knows what they said. Unfiltered transphobia is very hard to even bother interacting with.

@rjejr
Oh plz let her knife a bloater in the eye xD

@SinfulDestroyer oh god please no,im still traumatised

@IonMagi can you get Now Tv?

@IonMagi if in UK, may be able to get it on Now TV. They even do a free trial.

@DreamlandGem fair enough, you're the boss, my apology for going off topic.

If anyone knows a friend with Now TV why not ask them to let you sign in to their account on your device to watch the show when they're not using Now TV?

This has so much potential it's not even funny. They could have a huge hit on their hands if done right.

@Boucho11 No, its only available in 3 countries and not mine

HBO have given me some of the best TV shows I have ever seen and I have full confidence this will be yet another.

@BrotherFilmriss @riceNpea She wasn't in it much, but she had a commanding presence when on screen, you just stared at her. And I can't think of anything else I've seen her in. She probably has been, but if I haven't seen it, she's just that 1 character.

Since it's a show I'll probably get used to her by like mid-season but it's going to take a bit.

@IonMagi what about now tv?

Seriously though, get the torrent.

@rjejr she was in The Worst Witch on BBC I've been told. A kid's show. Yes she's going to take lots and lots of getting used to in TLoU

Fair play to @Anti_Bigot_Patrol! Speaking sense!

@Anti_Bigot_Patrol no need to apologise, but I appreciate the sentiment and understanding.

Those ps6 graphics are looking better than ever! lol

Looks like Joel, Ellie, nothing at all alike.

@SmoothlyRough Pascal needs a full beard. It really bugs me that he doesn't. Maybe I'm overreacting.

Someone mentioned this here but he looks the same to me in everything I've seen him in: Game of Thrones, The Mandalorian, and now The Last of Us. It's like all he does is change his shirt lol even though the characters he's played are very very different from each other.

They should let Ellie die at the end of season 1. Then Joel can go on a rampage in season 2.

@GreatAuk I'm hoping the beard grows fuller as the series goes on. I don't like how scruffy it looks. But it most doesn't matter as I'll be so distracted at how different Ellie is. With Joel they tried. With Ellie it's like HBO must've got on with her well during GoT and gave her a job.

@BrotherFilmriss it truly is a shame, he looked the perfect fit.
My headcanon is that he just played her back then, still don't know who actually did so it checks out.
This lass looks a bit odd lol

@riceNpea it's very possible her in with HBO gave her a major leg up on being casted as Ellie.

@riceNpea she's too young to have been in worst witch unless there was a more modern reboot

@Would_you_kindly she was in it. Have a little Google 😊 didn't know there is more than 1 version.

@riceNpea oh yeah she played Mildred lol & yeah the original is from 1998 I remember watching it when I was a kid

Looks fantastic and Pedro looks perfect as Joel.

@WallyWest except the beard

I’m well aware that I’m in the vast minority who thought the game was good but not ‘GREAT!!!’ , but I will definitely say everything in this trailer - from the casting to the art direction and everything in between- looks absolutely SPOT ON and I’m definitely looking forward to watching this.

Well, the cast pushed me away. Come in, where is the sweet innocen girl... poor choice. Veeery poor choice. I will not ruin my game with this. I like Pedro a lot, but not in this role. He does not have the cold that Joel showed in the beginning.

@DETfaninATL the casting of Ellie is spot on? I'm not so sure.

This looks insane. This looks so good. You can already tell there's so much talent, and hard work, in this. From everyone involved.
I just finished to replay Part 1, and this story, these characters... Everything is as strong as I remembered. Stronger, even, with these awesome improvements in models and motion capture, for the cut scenes.

I love this series so much. Can't wait to experience it again, but in a new way, with this TV show and this awesome cast. Call me a fanboy, cause that's what I am !

I just don't get the casting choices is all. Pedro is alright, but they certainly didn't make him look like joel, or any different than he looks in every single role he's done.

Ellie, however, looks so jarringly different that it is very distracting. I have no doubt the show will be decent but how much it does to differentiate it from the games to make fans love it will be a weird balancing act, as the games, and really all ND has pulled off in the last decade are essentially playable movies/shows. So, we've seen that drama and acting done already on screen with greater interactivity.

Now they are asking us to see it again but with very different looking main protagonists. It will get Rave reviews I'm guessing based on reputation alone, however I think post-apocalyptic series have overall been largely underwhelming and always overstay their welcome. Hopefully this will be like a one two or three season affair at most

@Sergo shouldn't really judge until you've seen at least 1 episode

I wonder what Pedro's contract for season 2 is like...

Looks dope. Will watch.

@rawzeku it ended up being one of the biggest budgets hbo's given a show , they are going all out on this .

@liljazzy2 I thought Neil took the reactions pretty well...He admitted part 2 was 'messier' than the first and something is lost with stories being concise. He also admitted the Abby section was not going to work for some people. And they knew it would be controversial from the beginning since both characters were so beloved.

But I'm almost positive this is the original outline for the trilogy. Games just take forever to make.

@liljazzy2
Good morning.
I agree with how you qualify ND attitude. It’s like the opposite of the first game. First game felt open and humble in that it let the audience free to fill the plot blanks and to use their brain to figure out the right from the wrong in the games world context.
Part 2 seems more like trying to force a message through a ham fisted story and looking down on anyone who doesn’t like it.
This is definitely a very good trailer. I honestly have no idea how the story will end up here in the show ; either making sense and positive with likeable characters or full of plot holes and trying to be Freud 🤔
I like the game’s setting but probably not going to watch a tv show unless it brings something new and exciting (but not dark and making no sense).

@Korgon
The showrunners have teased that this show will spend a little more time exploring the backstories of various characters so i doubt this will be a complete 1:1. Especially not in future seasons.

I can't believe the Push put out a 'Reaction' video.
Do I look 14? fgs I give less a hoot about a stranger's reaction to anything than I do about my next trip to the loo

I'll watch the non-reaction version thank you.

I really like Pedro Pascal, but if this show has anything to do with the Last of Us Part 2 i'm not gonna watch any of it.

@liljazzy2 To be honest seeing "the acclaimed video game creator Neil Druckmann" had the same effect on me, i really dont like him at all, i enjoyed last of us part 1 for what it was, but part 2 is a no no for me, i can't really deal with any medium that is all about "The Message" , so i'll probably not watch the show.

@Futureshark They should go with my idea of killing Ellie at the end of season 1 and Joel goes ballistic in season 2 and goes hunting for all those who were responsible for her death.

Of course side effect is all of humanity is saved (except the people Joel kills in season 2.)

Am I the only one that thought Ellie should have been sacrificed at the end of Part 1?

@Omnistalgic was that before or after he said that people couldn't get behind Part 2's story because of their "egos?" Or before or after he posted Roosevelt's "Man in the Arena" quote implicitly saying his critics didn't matter? Or before or after he explicitly said that some of his critics were "way less important" and that some "were not important at all?"

@Would_you_kindly pull of a 14 year old.......couldn't of phrased that better huh?!

@liljazzy2 I didn't know about all of that. I think TLOU2 deserves some criticism, but at launch with the leaks a lot of it was in bad faith. I'd imagine is was hard to read what was genuine and what was nonsense because everyone thought a trans characters killed Joel etc...

I definitely liked part 1 better, but I do like that ND didn't try and do a safe sequel, I just think it was too long and Joel should've received a "left behind" like DLC.

I also thought more of the studio's culture came through in part 2, some of it was very annoying lol...

@Oisin 😂

@Omnistalgic fair points friend

Am I a bad person for liking Abby more than Ellie in part 2?

Even in the aftermath of COVID people still believe it makes sense that’s how you make a ‘CuRe’ ?
Examine your best ‘specimen’ (the best they found yet) in an hour or so and then decide you got to butcher her in a ‘scientific’ way?
And that (in the first game) somehow despite all the clues, the fireflies aren’t a bunch of cynical mercenaries in a cult with a mengele doc?
Jeez

Edit
Oh yeah and the US is the world, right. 😅

@liljazzy2 likewise buddy

@tallythwack True, but... just tired of all things to be changed for all the wrong reasons.

@rawzeku I bet

@Would_you_kindly aww you will get over it

@Deljo are you trying to be funny?

@BrotherFilmriss so it's about the acting and what the actor's look has to do with the story?
