The Last of Us TV series will enhance some events in the original game

The Last of Us 1 was released in 2013. As of October 2019, it has sold more than 20 million copies, becoming one of the best-selling PS3 games of all time. The HBO TV series The Last of Us will start filming in July this year, which also makes many players excited.

The TV series "The Last of Us" is based on the plot of the game "The Last of Us 1". Pedro Pascal, the star of "The Mandalorian", plays Joel, and Bella Ramsey, the "Little Bear Girl" actor in "Game of Thrones", plays Ellie. Chernobyl screenwriter Craig Mazin will write the script and serve as producer for the TV series "The Last of Us" together with Naughty Dog Vice President Neil Druckmann.

Recently, Craig Mazin said in an interview with the BBC that The Last of Us TV series will strengthen certain events in the original game. They will treat the original game with the attitude of treating the original novel, expanding its content instead of starting over.

Craig Mazin said: "I can't say too much, but I know that fans will have doubts in their hearts, that is, will the game be adapted into a TV series, will it be greatly modified or make the plot stupid?" "But I will guarantee that the changes we make are only to fill in and expand the original content. Rather than tearing down and starting over and making another set of things."

Craig Mazin also said that being able to participate in the production of the "The Last of Us" TV series is a "dream come true" for him, because he is a fan of the "The Last of Us" game. However, he also said: "Actually, I am a little scared because everyone's emotions about this game seem very strong."
