Bella Ramsey will be taking portraying Ellie throughout the series, who many will know went on to become the main protagonist of The Last of Us: Part II.
It’s been a big week for fans of The Last of Us, as the opening night of Summer Game Fest saw Naughty Dog’s Neil Druckmann confirm the existence of a part one remake. Simply titled ‘The Last of Us: Part I‘, Naughty Dog has re-built the first entry in the series from the ground up, with a release date of September 2nd for PlayStation 5 and a PC version currently in development.
