A long-awaited adaptation

While many fans were worried about not seeing “The Last of Us” scheduled in France, Prime Video has just announced its broadcast from Monday January 16 on its streaming platform.

Good news for all those who admire the quality of this now cult video game. 

“The Last of Us” plunges the viewer into a world ravaged by a fungus that gradually transforms human beings into killer zombies.

The program, produced by HBO, retraces the journey of Joël, a notorious trafficker, and Ellie, a young girl mysteriously immune to the virus. 

On the menu, 9 episodes of content with Neil Druckmann, one of the creators of the legendary video game, at the helm, accompanied by Craig Mazin, screenwriter of the multi-award-winning series “Chernobyl”.

Also noteworthy, a nice cast with the very great Pedro Pascal ("Game of thrones", "Narcos") in the role of Joel Miller, joined by the young Bella Ramsey, stunning clan leader of "Game of Thrones" who will interpret Ellie.

The most loyal aficionados of "The Last of Us" can be reassured: the game's universe is respected and its creators even have a few good surprises in store for the most demanding spectators.
