HBO Max debuts new episodes of “The Last of Us” every Sunday night, but you may be wondering if this Sunday’s “Super Bowl” will impact that schedule. Indeed it will, Bloody Disgusting has learned today. Instead of premiering on HBO Max on Super Bowl Sunday, “The Last of Us” Episode 5 will be available to watch this Friday, February 10 at 9pm EST!
Deadline notes this morning, however, “The episode will also still air on HBO during its regularly scheduled time on Sunday at 9 p.m. ET/PT.”
Following this week, new episodes will go back to hitting HBO Max on Sunday nights.
HBO’s “The Last of Us” takes place twenty years after modern civilization has been destroyed. Joel, a hardened survivor, is hired to smuggle Ellie, a 14-year-old girl, out of an oppressive quarantine zone. What starts as a small job soon becomes a brutal, heartbreaking journey, as they both must traverse across the U.S. and depend on each other for survival.
Pedro Pascal (“The Mandalorian”) is starring in the series as Joel and Bella Ramsey (“Game of Thrones”) is playing Ellie. Gabriel Luna (Terminator: Dark Fate) is playing Tommy, the brother of Pascal’s Joel. Storm Reid, Anna Torv, Jeffrey Pierce, Nick Offerman, Merle Dandridge, Nico Parker, Murray Bartlett and Con O’Neil will also star in the series.
Craig Mazin (“Chernobyl”) developed the series for HBO, and worked directly alongside Neil Druckmann to write and executive produce the small screen adaptation.
