Apparently, The Last of Us series will not be just an ordinary series, since HBO spent a huge budget on its production, perhaps even exceeding the budget for the production of several seasons of the platform's biggest work, which is the Game of Thrones series.
According to a report published by The New Yorker, the production budget for The Last of Us is larger than any of the first five seasons of Game of Thrones. While the actual figure has not been disclosed, the said report mentioned a figure of US$1.4T 100 million.
Although this number is large and many do not believe it, the HBO platform has high hopes for the series, which hopes to satisfy the game's large audience, in addition to attracting new followers.
From what we saw in the promotional presentation of the series, it seems that the production team has made great efforts to revive the game world on the ground and give the true nature of the feeling after the disaster, the collapse of the world, and the spread of strange creatures thirsty for human blood.
Also choosing professional actors to play the roles of characters who are linked to each other through backstories and also linked to the game world.
Since the series is based on a video game, the production team may face many challenges in presenting the story and events in a way that viewers feel relatable, yet different and unexpected. Therefore, Neil Druckmann, the game director who co-wrote the story for the series and the production, confirmed that there are many new moments that will impress video game fans that they have never seen before.
Yes, it's very interesting to see how the world of The Last of Us can be transformed into a living thing, while preserving the plot and atmosphere of anticipation and terror.
The Last of Us series will begin airing on Sunday, January 15, exclusively on the HBO TV platform, as the first episode will be approximately 85 minutes long.
Have you been looking forward to watching the series since day one of the show?
