    We are so very pleased to report that Pedro Pascal, star of “The Mandalorian,” and “Wonder Woman 1984” has been tapped to play the lead of Joel in the upcoming HBO series “The Last of Us.“

    Earlier today, we shared the breaking news that fellow “Game of Thrones” alum Bella Ramsey has been cast to play the other leading role, Ellie.

    The role of Joel was performed by Troy Baker throughout the game series.

    What we know about the series so far is that Craig Mazin (creator of hit HBO limited series “Chernobyl”) will write and executive produce, along with the writer and creative director of “The Last of Us” video games, Neil Druckmann.

    HBO greenlit the series, based on the pair of video games from Naughty Dog, back in November of 2020.

    We will of course let you know what else we hear about casting for this and other series.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
