Earlier this evening we reported that “Game of Thrones” actress Bella Ramsey was cast as Ellie, a teenager who may be key to a cure for a deadly pandemic, in HBO’s live-action “The Last of Us” series.

It gets even better. Ramsey will be joined by her “Game of Thrones” co-star Pedro Pascal, who has not only been absolutely killer on Disney+’s “Mandalorian” series, but was also dynamite in Warner Bros. and HBO Max’s Wonder Woman 1984.

Pascal will play the lead role of Joel, “a hardened survivor who is hired to smuggle Ellie (Ramsey), a 14-year-old girl, out of an oppressive quarantine zone. What starts as a small job soon becomes a brutal, heartbreaking journey, as they both must traverse across the U.S. and depend on each other for survival.”

It's like the rooney rule. You just have to interview a PoC for austerity before going with who you really wanted originally.

Pumped about this, especially since it's on HBO.

Really don’t give a shite about watching it because of the game creators who hate their audience. At least stroll through his Twitter during TLOU2 release before supporting the show.

Wasn’t the second game a steaming pile of shite? The Drinker fireballed it.

Seriously?? Holy shite. Now I am even more pumped about it. Chernobyl is one of the best things HBO has ever done. It's that awesome.

I made a thread about it months ago and everyone was like “meh, sounds like Walking Dead on HBO.”

I’m pumped, personally. I think Pedro Pascal is great for this role. I honestly forgot he was in Game of Thrones, feels like a decade ago that he got his eyes popped out by the Mountain. He was fantastic in Narcos though, which I think is a similar role tone-wise to The Last of Us.

I think Kaitlyn Dever would have been the perfect Ellie, but I’m willing to give young Lyanna Mormont a chance.
