The Last of Us' Series in the Works at HBO From 'Chernobyl' Creator Craig Mazin, Neil Druckmann (Exclusive)

MARCH 05, 2020 9:30AMby*Borys Kit, Patrick Shanley

Craig Mazin, the creator of the acclaimed limited series*Chernobyl,*is reteaming with HBO adapt*The Last of Us, the massive Sony PlayStation video game franchise.
In a rare development in the world of video game adaptations, the writer and creative director of the game, Neil Druckmann, is also involved, and will work with Mazin to pen and executive produce what is intended to be a series.

Carolyn Strauss will also executive produce along with Evan Wells, the president of Naughty Dog, the Santa Monica-based developer of the game. The project is a co-production with Sony Pictures Television and in association with PlayStation Productions and it will be the first television series from PlayStation Productions.
Originally launched in 2013, Sony and Naughty Dog’s*The Last of Us*garnered critical praise for its engrossing tale of the post-apocalypse centered on the relationship between Joel, a smuggler in this new world, and Ellie, a teenager who may be a key to a cure for the deadly pandemic.
Joel, a hardened survivor, is hired to smuggle the14-year-old girl out of an oppressive quarantine zone. What starts as a small job soon becomes a brutal, heartbreaking journey, as they both must traverse across the U.S. and depend on each other for survival. The HBO series will cover the events of the original game, which was written by Druckmann, with the possibility of additional content based on the forthcoming game sequel,*The Last of Us Part II, which will release on May 29, 2020.
Mazin, who is said to be an avid player of the game, stated, “Neil Druckmann is without question the finest storyteller working in the video game medium, and*The Last of Us*is his magnum opus. Getting a chance to adapt this breathtaking work of art has been a dream of mine for years, and I’m so honored to do it in partnership with Neil.”
“From the first time I sat down to talk with Craig I was equally blown away by his approach to narrative and his love and deep understanding of*The Last of Us,” said Druckmann in a statement. “With*Chernobyl, Craig and HBO created a tense, harrowing, emotional masterpiece. I couldn’t think of better partners to bring the story of*The Last of Us*to life as a television show.”
Last of Us*won numerous “game of the year” awards and went on to sell more than 17 million copies across both its original release on the PlayStation 3 and a remastered version on the PlayStation 4.
“This is an incredibly exciting opportunity for us to partner with Craig, Neil, Carolyn and the teams at Sony, Naughty Dog and PlayStation to bring the virtual world of this acclaimed game to life,” stated HBO programming president Casey Bloys.
“This is the first of many shows we intend to develop with our friends at PlayStation Productions,” said Chris Parnell, co-president of Sony Pictures Television Studios.*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.”
Druckmann is a longtime vet of Naughty Dog, starting as a programming intern in 2004. In 2007, he was given the role of game designer on*Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, the first installment in the action adventure series. In 2013, he created*The Last of Us, based on a concept he developed as a student at Carnegie Mellon University.
Mazin’s*Chernobyl*tackled a bleak and complex true-life event and became a must-see show for HBO. The show won an Emmy for outstanding limited series and landed one for Mazin for outstanding writing. Mazin also won a PGA and a WGA Award.

Holy shit this is gonna be awesome.

When Dina finds out Ellie is immune, she doesn't ask a single question. They just jump right into a sex scene.

Then Ellie gets excited about "being a Dad." It's so cringe.

It's also performative woke. If HBO was really about it, they would've had Dina get an abortion. pic.twitter.com/YrewXClLPa

I started replaying part two to have a fresher memory.

I don’t recall the “dad” line in the game. That was a bit cringe.

Outside of that, I like the Isaac actor. He’s been in a lot of good roles.

Why do they have to ruin every show with gay shit. Now it's two women gonna have a baby with no man. Really stupid.

Its exactly like the source material. The show had about 5-10 minutes of "gay shit" and Jesse is the dad, dumb shit. Dina literally says it in the show.

The show is woke propaganda.

In the game, "Outbreak Day" happens in 2013. In the HBO show it's 2003.

SJWs always pretend history doesn't exist, & Pride flags were everywhere in 2003 apparently.

Social engineering cloaked in a zombie story wrapper...saw a magazine at the grocery store checkout dedicated to this show...like it's some epic achievement.

It's straight up propaganda...it was obvious from the opening scene. Turned it off...

Someone asked "why is there always "gay shit" shoe-horned into these mindless series...the Luciferian Elite are all sodomites. They are bound. It's a perversion of natural order in which they are trying normalize/glorify in the youth.

"Pride" was Lucifer's downfall...so they double-down on "gay pride".

Interesting tidbit...a natural rainbow has 7 colors & represents "divine completion". A Pride flag has 6...which represents bondage flesh, sin and man.

All the pride shit in Seattle doesn't even make sense in the context of the show, because it takes place in an alternate history where the world as we knew it got destroyed in 2003. The story picks up over 20 years later. You didn't see this pride shit displayed like this publicly with no occasion in 2003 unless maybe you were in the gayest San Francisco area ever. And it makes no sense for someone in an apocalyptic world to decorate their dead, abandoned city with modern woke gay shit now when that political and cultural fad never would have happened in their world. You might as well put in internet memes in the show even though they never existed.

California voted on prop 8 to ban gay marriage in 2008 and Hillary and Obama both publicly did not support gay marriage. The dystopia in the show/game started five years before any of that lol. Purely the woke game and showrunners injecting their politics into the show at the expense of logic and world building.

Well...this show isnt "designed" for those who appreciate critical nuance, metaphor and detail. It's the $1 menu crowd/youth they are after...that's who they want to engineer. These people will be adults by the time agenda 2050 is implemented.

Go woke, go broke. I won't touch these games.
