What Is the Last of Us Series About?
To begin with, The Last of Us is a third-person apocalypse survival game designed for PlayStation. Naughty Dog and Sony developed the game. Now HBO has adapted the game for the series. The series will feature Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey. Pedro Pascal will act as Joel, who is a former highwayman.
What is interesting about his character is that he is assigned to bring Ellie to the quarantine zone. Why? It is because it is believed that Ellie holds the cure for the zombie-like outbreak. Even though not much is known about the outbreak, we know that it is resulting in an apocalypse-like situation. Furthermore, according to the plot, she is also immune to the infection, which can cause the transformation.
