Upcoming Video Game Adaptation Can Finally Prove The Last Of Us’ Success Isn’t A Fluke

As seen in the critically acclaimed live-action adaptation of HBO’s The Last of Us, the next major upcoming video game adaptation has the potential to be just as successful if the right approach is with its development. While Hollywood has tried its hand at video games adaptations for decades, the consensus has largely been that they don’t work. In addition to the stellar acting performances and strong writing, the success of The Last of Us season 1 can be attributed to show’s masterful handling of the complexity of the games’ themes.
