Looks like we may have our first actress for the upcoming The Last of Us movie. Along with the first poster reveal for the upcoming film adaptation of The Last of Us, Naughty Dog’s Neil Druckmann spoke of who will be playing Ellie.
If you missed out at this year’s Comic Con Naughty Dog panel in San Diego, Neil Druckmann, writer for The Last of Us, spoke a bit about the movie. The first poster was revealed and while it’s not picturing a real actor for the character Ellie, Neil did speak of who was given the part of Ellie.
Maisie Williams, actress of Game of Thrones, plays Arya Stark in the smashing HBO hit series. Apparently, Naughty Dog approached Maisie Williams about taking the role of Ellie though it was not confirmed if Maisie Williams is accepting the part or not.
No news was released about who will be taking the role of Joel as of yet. Neil Druckmann only stated that the movie is still in the very early stages as they group continues to write up a script. There’s no indication as of yet on how the movie will tie in with the game or if this will be a completely different story.
That’s not the only Naughty Dog video game being turned into a film. The Uncharted movie was recently announced that the film will be hitting theaters June of 2016.
