LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: New year calls for new changes, at least that is what, 'The Last of Us' is about to show us this year. 'The Last of Us' will star Pedro Pascal as Joel, and Bella Ramsey as Ellie, and will loosely tell the story from the first game. As the series nears its release date, HBO is ramping up the promotion with a bunch of new promotional videos which are definitely cool and are enough to psych the video games' fans. 

However, recent reports also suggested that Craig Mazin, the showrunner behind HBO's upcoming TV adaptation of 'The Last of Us', has teased his own plans for the show's second season. Although the channel hasn't announced that 'The Last of Us' will be receiving any new seasons beyond this first run of episodes that are slated to premiere later this month.

However, 'The Last of Us' is a 2013 action-adventure game developed by Naughty Dog and published by Sony Computer Entertainment which is now being adapted into a live-action TV series. In the game, players control Joel, a smuggler tasked with escorting a teenage girl, Ellie, across the post-apocalyptic state of the country. 'The Last of Us' is played from a third-person perspective. Players use firearms and improvised weapons and can use stealth to defend against hostile humans and cannibalistic creatures infected by a mutated fungus in the genus Cordyceps.

The post-apocalyptic drama television series is created by Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann for HBO. Apart from Pascal and Ramsey, the series will also feature Gabriel Luna as Joel's younger brother Tommy, Merle Dandridge as resistance leader Marlene, and Anna Torv as Joel's smuggler partner Tess.

Furthermore, the first season will consist of nine episodes written by Mazin and Druckmann; the latter wrote and directed the game. 

'The Last of Us' is set to debut on January 15, 2023.
