Sony’s decision to bring some of its major brands to film and television may have looked like a huge risk initially, but following the enormous success of both Uncharted and The Last of Us, it must be feeling pretty satisfied with its decision right now. Of course, in the case of Joel and Ellie’s cross-country adventure, it’s not only successfully adapted a contemporary classic – but it’s also created a critically acclaimed hit capable of standing on its own merits. So, how did it do it?

Well, the latest in its Creator to Creator series peeks behind the curtain, as Naughty Dog’s Neil Druckmann is joined by actors Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey, as well as executive producer Craig Mazin and PS Productions bigwig Asad Qizilbash. The roundtable delves into all kinds of interesting details, like how different it is directing a video game cinematic compared to a television show. It all makes for quite engaging and interesting viewing.

This is just part one of the discussion, with more episodes to follow at a later date.
