The Last of Us: Cannon Launch for HBO and Sony
“Finally!” some will say who have been waiting impatiently the broadcast of the series The last of us produced by HBO and Sony for months or even years. The reception was warm as the series was piloted by Craig Mazin (Chernobyl) and Neil Druckmann the second best start of an HBO series
It must be said that the funds have been provided and that the presence of Pedro Pascal as well as Bella Ramsey, Ana Torv, Nick Offerman or Nico Parker and Gabriel Luna makes you want. The series closely follows the scenario of the first game while introducing new sequences, which the series promises from its first episode there are many hymns of praise. However, among the reviews of the series, we read that it could have strayed a bit more from the game, or even Avoid duplicating until the next shot a series of sequences.
However, it’s a putative choice of production that aims to appeal to both fans and the curious. nothing to satisfy Bruce Straleythe co-creator of the franchise, the uncredited and who complains about it and says it’s an argument in favor of unionization. Anyway it is a full box for Sony and HBO at the moment
Joel, a creepy behavioral figure for Pedro Pascal
In order not to affect the performance of the actors, and particularly the actors playing Joel and Ellie, the production was cut asked Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey not to play the game before or during filming. But the actor who played Joel played the game despite recommendations and enjoyed an interview with Wired to evoke his character. And so much to say that he’s afraid of what he might do if he were in the same situation as Joel:
I think the scary thing about Joel is that none of us really know what we would be capable of when faced with the thought of losing a loved one. Whether consciously or unconsciously, being alive or even being human is directly related to the love you feel. Existence is linked to the love you have for a specific relationship: your child, your partner. What if you lost everything?
Some people are unable to think rationally about that kind of loss, or the threat of that loss, or the threat of reliving that loss, right? That makes you human and inhuman. That’s such a beautiful question that video games ask. I avoid all of that by not having children. And stay out of relationships.
The latter, 47 years old, doesn’t know if he would like to have children one day. A statement that contrasts with the roles he has recently played, where He often acts as a father figure. But the actor likes to imagine how he would behave in such situations if he were a father. Despite everything, the fact of not having children or having started the game despite the recommendations of the production (supported by his nephews, he specifies). didn’t stop Pedro Pascal from portraying a very convincing Joel for the moment. If you want to watch the series in France, you can on Amazon Prime Video, but for now you’ll have to settle for 1080p. The next episode is probably overnight from Sunday to Monday on the platformafter that there are seven episodes left.
