The Last Of Us
The Last Of Us is getting its very own HBO series starring Game Of Thrones alumni Bella Ramsey (Lyanna Mormont) as Ellie and Pedro Pascal (the Viper) as Joel.
The massive HBO project is being filmed in Calgary, Alberta and is said to be the largest in Canadian history.
Production on The Last Of Us began in July and the first season’s ten episodes are set to be complete by June of next year with a premiere date sometime in 2022, barring any unforeseen problems.
