10 Most Hotly Anticipated Horror TV Shows Debuting Or Returning In 2022
2. The Last Of Us
Based on the popular game of the same name, The Last of Us series will follow Joel and Ellie from the first game as they travel across the post-apocalyptic United States.
Filmed in Calgary, Alberta, Canada starting in July 2021 and wrapping up in June 2022, The Last of Us is expected to make its way to our screens in the latter half of the year on HBO for a ten-episode run.
Pedro Pascal will star as Joel alongside fellow Game of Thrones alumni Bella Ramsey as Ellie. The show will also feature Gabriel Luna, Merle Dandridge, Jeffery Pierce, and Nick Offerman. This HBO offering will introduce new characters while also exploring the original characters that we have grown to know from the gaming series. Any changes made are meant to expand the story not undo anything from the games, with a huge focus being put on things that were left out - including a "jaw dropping moment".
The Last of Us' time period will also change for this TV adaptation, taking place ten years earlier than the setting of the game.
