Game of Thrones veterans Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey are Joel and Ellie in HBO’s adaptation of The Last of Us, the hugely popular zombie video game from Sony and Naughty Dog! And fans are already hard at work showing us what that’ll look like.
Let’s start with Redditor Misty1780, who mocked up what Pascal mike look like as Joel, a hard-bitten survivor of the zombie apocalypse who takes the young Ellie under his wing. The result was so impressive that The Last of Us director Neil Druckmann even featured it on his Twitter:
Alice X. Zhang took things further by showing us what both Pascal and Ramsey will look like as their characters:
Ramsey is pretty much a perfect choice for Ellie, by the way. Game of Thrones fans know Ramsey for playing Lyanna Mormont, a no-nonsense leader with a commanding presence well beyond her years. Ellie isn’t quite as intense, but she has the same fighting spirit, and I’m sure Ramsey will be able to tap directly into it.

We don’t know when The Last of Us will premiere on HBO, but the more I hear and see about it, the more eager I am to watch it.
