6 hidden references in the trailer for “The Last of Us” to the video game Naughty Dog – HBO Max (courtesy)
On the subject of video games, “The Last of Us” was one of the watershed titles in the entertainment industry, with a dark, adult story rarely seen in between. That’s why Sony and HBO have decided to adapt it into a series with Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey, which has released its first full trailer, which hides some references and hints to Naughty Dog’s work.
The fireflies
Although it is visible to all, in the trailer for ‘The last of us’ we see a reference to Las Luciérnagas, in a logo painted by two people guarded by police officers. This military group is one of the few resistances in the world, and which has barracks where the cure for CBI, the disease that caused the apocalypse on Earth, is being studied.
Joel’s watch
It is possible that people who did not play the original game have lost or ignored their watch. Joel, the protagonist of ‘The last of us’, which will be played by Pedro Pascal. In a moment we see that he too is damaged, has an affair with his daughter, and the beginning of this whole adventure.
left behind
In the HBO series directed by Craig Mazin, it has been confirmed that it will take some of the events of the sequel, in addition to the downloadable content of “The Last of Us” known as “Left Behind”. This short story tells the events leading up to the main adventure, in which Elli meets Riley, played by Storm Reid (Euphoria), and one of the most special and exciting moments in this universe.
Boston buildings
In the trailer you can see some of the recognizable places in Naughty Dog’s oeuvre, which have been faithfully represented and almost to the millimeter of the original installment. However, there is a moment when you can see the collapsed buildings of Boston, a place that is preceded by one of the most important revelations for the development of the relationship between Joel and Ellie.
return of account
At the moment no specific details are known, but in the trailer you can see for a moment Bill, played by Nick Offerman, the last survivor of Lincoln. Some may have noticed that the scene in which the meeting with Joel takes place is quite different, because, despite falling into his trap, in the video game there is a scene with the protagonist hanged, trying to survive a wave of clicker.
The beginning of it all
Like a beautiful and tragic metaphor, the end of the trailer ‘The last of us’ shows the HBO series logoand with which it is believed that each chapter of the story begins, which refers to what started the whole situation, the spores, the means of transmission of the disease that transforms humans into beings similar to zombies, but caused by one strange virus.
