The series format adaptation of the game ‘The Last of Us’, transmitted by HBO Max, had the support of the HBO team to elaborate a production full of details, showing foreign bodies, mental misfortunes, among others. However, within the set of recordings of the series, one word became forbidden: zombie.
To The Credits website, Eben Bolter, the production’s cinematographer, said, “We couldn’t say the Z-word on set. It was forbidden. They are the Infected. We are not a zombie series. Of course, there are tense scenes and many scares, but the heart of the plot is the characters. The infected are an obstacle in the way.”
It is noteworthy that from a biological point of view, the infected characters of ‘The Last of Us’ cannot be considered zombies, as these, when they die, come back and walk in search of brains. The fungus portrayed in the series, Cordyceps, keeps those infected alive, even taking over all motor and brain functions.
In the HBO plot, Pedro Pascal It is Bella Ramsey bring the main characters to life. In addition to them, the cast also has Anna Torv, Nico Parker, Nick Offerman, Murray Bartlett, Storm Reid It is Rutina Wesley. The series is signed by Craig Mazinfrom ‘Chernobyl’, and Neil Druckmann, co-creator of the game. “The Last of Us” has new episodes every Sunday on HBO at 11 pm.
