'The Last of Us' HBO Series (NO GAME SPOILERS!) | Season 2 Coming Spring 2025 (7 Episodes)

[Kiyoshi-Dono]

Too old, she would perfect if they started from Pt. 2 Ellie though. Bella started filming this when she was 17

Too old
Muthafukkas be whole ass 30 year olds playing 15 year olds in high school
But 25
Well that’s where I draw the line head ass
I keep forgetting where I’m posting
Especially when it comes to franchises above criticism
Too old
Thanks for the laugh breh
I needed some dumbshyt to chuckle at today

I seriously have no clue why some people put that much thought on how Ellie looks on the show. She's a teenager . And all that matters is that the actress can nail Ellie's attitude and charisma.

You know how internet fanboys are with their "cosplay" casting.

To them looking like the characters they like is more important than acting or being like the characters they like.

 

[NeoSeeker]

The teaser looks incredible.

I'm not worried about the casting. Some of the best shows ever came from HBO, so I trust them.

 

[NoMorePie]

I'm in for this ride.

[O³ (O cubed)]

Why they got my Ellie looking like that?

Because the person who they based the character on is now a man.

 

[HiiiPower]

Because the person who they based the character on is now a man.

Once again, Ellen page was an average actress and is 35 years o…

…Man Nevermind lol

If we’re talking old fan castings Chloe Grace Moretz was always a way better choice than Ellen Page

 

[ColdSlither]

because Ellen Page is no longer Ellen Page

That and Ashley Johnson is 39. That's who she's really based on.

 

[Jmare007]

I feel they are setting her up to get big backlash from twitter/gamer mobs by doing this. I hope she can act her ass off and make it work, her GOT stuff was dope but that was a very different role than this one.

 

[904]

I have a feeling she's going to be a little less independent than Ellie was in the game..

But then again I have nothing to go off of

 

[CW_1991]

I feel like regardless of how well the show is you're going to have people who call it woke and bytch and moan about it for views and engagement.

The backbone of some of these peoples entire platform is predicated off of negativity and right wing rhetoric.

Naughty dog (specifically neil) already have a bad rep with a certain group who hated the second game. And the pettiness and vindictiveness of those types don't just go away. They're definitely waiting in the cut for its release.

So how big do y'all think this is going to be? Bigger than peak Walking Dead possibly?

Multiple seasons?

Will season 1 cover the entire first games story?

Bigger than the Walking Dead? I doubt it, at least in terms of viewership. That show was MASSIVE at its peak. It averaged 14.38 million viewers an episode in season 5.

For context, Game of Thrones highest season averaged 11.99 and this House of the Dragon show looks like it's getting somewhere in the neighborhood of nearly 11 million, and that's the biggest thing on TV right now outside of sports. The best season of the Sopranos averaged 10.99 million an episode.

So to be bigger than TWD would require it to biggest series HBO has ever aired.

I think a big part of it was being the AMC was a cable channel rather than a premium subscription type deal like HBO is.

As far as the crazy viewership. But it was also a great show.

Also back in the day you didn't really have the streaming wars in full effect like you do now. Cable television was at it's peak then but kind of dying out now I feel.

Such a missed casting as Ellie

She’s way too old fam lmaooo. Ellie supposed to be around 11-14 at the start of the game lol
