Set years after a devastating fungal outbreak that has decimated much of the human population, The Last of Us follows the harrowing journey of Joel, who finds himself in a strict militarized quarantine zone. He shares a close bond with Tess, a resourceful survivor thriving in the black market of their community. Known for their ruthless reputation within the local criminal underworld, they embark on a perilous mission to retrieve their stolen firearms, only to encounter the leader of the Fireflies, a resistance group. This encounter leads them to a daunting task: smuggling a young girl named Ellie out of the zone, a mission that spirals into unforeseen challenges and revelations.

In the HBO adaptation, Pedro Pascal portrays Joel, a character grappling with deep-seated trauma and regret as he navigates a post-apocalyptic America. His primary objective is to protect Ellie, a girl who embodies the last flicker of hope for humanity in a world consumed by despair. Joining him is Bella Ramsey as Ellie, an orphan who has only known a ravaged Earth.
