HBO’s The Last of Us has plenty of detail to dig into, so who better to talk about it than the actor who originally played protagonist Joel Miller?
The first episode of the adaptation of the lauded Naughty Dog survival action game landed Sunday to critical acclaim and the inevitable need for viewers to obsess over the details. Luckily, HBO is doing what everyone does now and has released an official podcast for the show.
HBO’s The Last of Us Podcast is hosted by none other than Troy Baker, who voiced Joel in the games and also makes an appearance in the TV series — not as Joel, of course, as Pedro Pascal’s in that lead role. For the first episode, Baker chats to the creative leads behind the series, Chernobyl director Craig Mazin and The Last of Us creator/Naughty Dog co-president Neil Druckmann about how the series actually got made.
You can find the podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts, or you can watch it below on YouTube.
Meanwhile,The Last of Us is now streaming on HBO Max with new episodes airing weekly on HBO.
