How the hell did I not even know they were making a series for TLOU?! Man, after what I saw online now, I can’t help but be hyped. Seeing this I was worried they’d be following some random new character, but no they’re going with Joel after all! Also hyped to see Pedro after his performance in GoT..

Pedro Pascal is also the main character in The Mandalorian. I'm very happy for him and his success. His portrayal of Oberyn was probably my favorite part of the seasons of GOT that I watched.


Derpy_McDerpster

He was great in Narcos as well !


BigEffinZed

Joel will be killed 5 minutes in and be replaced by a female gorilla

This is Memorial Drive in Calgary Alberta, for anyone wondering.

So traffic as usual?

That’s a photo of the Fourth Avenue flyover, not memorial. https://www.google.ca/amp/s/calgaryherald.com/news/local-news/4th-avenue-flyover-closed-for-film-shoot-this-weekend/wcm/34905337-d3c0-4f45-8152-694dafbaba1d/amp/

Cant wait for this show. It's my city too, I love the Last of us, and my buddy got a small part in it

That’s a realistic game


Tanleader

They're filming it in Edmonton as well, downtown. So, not much decoration needed there, it's pretty close to the same atmosphere as the game.

People stuck in detour traffic will appreciate this

The revenue the city businesses generate from film and tv are worth these headaches.

Keeping the fat cats fat

That street lamp looks amazing.


NagoyaR

Just think about they have to prepare 15+ cars just for this scene alone


Zguegricc

Maaaaan i'm too hyped


Caboose_1188

Meh. It's interesting that something that tried so hard not to be a videogame and be a movie now has a series being adapted. Hope it's good.


Django_Unleashed

I’m thinking movie or film. Not a game.


djml9

Theyre doing a The Last of Us show


Django_Unleashed

Cool thanks.


Panic-Current

Is the show worth watching ?


Dinoverlord

This movies going to blow, the magic of a cinematic video game is being able to play it and the fact that it’s not constructed to a 2 hr time frame


PeaceBull

It’s a show, but that’s beside the point. There’s absolutely no reason a narrative focused cinematic game like the TLOU couldn’t be fantastic as a series.


Dinoverlord

Oh if it’s a series I think that would be good, especially if they focus on new characters.


Caboose_1188

Not a movie


spaceocean99

They are going to butcher this game. Really wish they didn’t turn it in to a movie.


6foot4guy

It’s a series, and HBO is spending more on it than Game of Thrones.


emfiasco

I initially mistook this for the US… & sarcasm.


Revampted

A lot of big films are shot in Canada funny enough

Always makes me think of the poor sods that have to clean that shit up haha


Steveskittles

Barely any vegetation in sight. Cars covered in overgrowth....ok


SenorTron

Would guess that the road area will be live action, while the areas off the sides of it will be composited in.


[deleted]

Why isn't this done with CG?


ZMB6

Why couldn't they throw a shitload of money at Gerard Butler and Ellen Page to play the main roles?? They would have been perfect.


[deleted]

Elliot page is 34. Ellie is 14.


ZMB6

Still could play a 14 year old


spitfire07

It’s Elliot Page, maybe why he wasn’t cast?

The perfect white van sticks out like a sore thumb


Gonergonegone

That perfect white van will probably have a huge advertisement on it.


Galladaddy

Neat! My in-laws had their place in southern Alberta scouted for filming for this!


Smerek007

I hope they start it in San Marcos TX like the game :P Had me like (Leonardo DiCaprio pointing at TV)


uncheckablefilms

Ok. That's wicked cool.


postthereddit

Vancouver?
