Check out new footage of Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey in The Last of Us

House of the Dragon was HBO’s marquee show for 2022. In 2023 it will be The Last of Us, an adaptation of Naughty Dog’s beloved video game about the aftermath of a zombie apocalypse. Pedro Pascal is Joel, a hardened survivor who lost his daughter in the early days of the outbreak. Fellow Game of Thrones veteran Bella Ramsey is Ellie, a young girl who seems to be immune to the fungus turning everyone into the walking dead. Joel must escort Ellie across a ravaged United States to get her to a team of scientists who can study her immunity, and perhaps rediscover his own humanity in the process.

HBO dropped a trailer for some of its upcoming shows the other day, and it included some new footage from The Last of Us. Check it out below:

We see Joel running through the streets clutching his daughter Sarah, the scene that opens the game. We also get more of Joel and Ellie together, and a scene of Ellie fleeing for her life while firing a gun behind her.

HBO is investing a lot in this series. We’ll see if it pays off when The Last of Us premieres sometime in 2023.

Warrior season 3 is coming to HBO Max!

There are teases for a lot of exciting series in there, including Barry, Perry Mason, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Hacks, Our Flag Means Death, and of course Succession, one of HBO’s current golden children. And don’t forget about The White House Plumbers, a Watergate drama starring Game of Thrones veteran Lena Headey!

All that said, I was actually most excited about the return of Warrior, a fantastic series that aired its first two seasons on Cinemax before getting cancelled and picked up by HBO Max. This show is about Chinese gang wars in San Francisco in the 1870s. The action is great and the characters compelling; I think the series deserves a much bigger audience than it has and hope its third season is when it breaks out.

2022 is almost over. 2023 is coming.
