Rumor has it that the TV series The Last of Us will move the timeline forward from 2013 to 2003

Recently, according to a news report from Twitter user NaughtyDogInfo, HBO's live-action American TV series "The Last of Us," which was adapted from the game, changed the date of "The Last of Us Day (also known as Outbreak Day)" from 2013 to 2003, and the overall story timeline was advanced by 10 years.

According to Reddit users, the reason why The Last of Us TV series changed the timeline is that if you live in a post-apocalyptic world, it would be cheaper and easier to get shabby-looking cars, props, etc. from 20 years ago than from 10 years ago.

The HBO TV series, based on the game of the same name, stars Pedro Pascal as Joel, who must safely transport Ellie across a zombie-infested America. Gabriel Luna plays Joel's brother Tommy, while Mel Dandridge plays Marlene, Nico Parker plays Joel's daughter Sarah, Nick Offerman plays Bill, and Anna Torv plays Tess.

The series is expected to have a total of 10 episodes, with Craig Mazin of Chernobyl and Neil Druckmann of Naughty Dog serving as writers and executive producers, and may be broadcast in 2022.
