Normally don’t care…but I would genuinely be saddened if whatever is going on with HBO/Discovery resulted in The Last of Us adaption getting canned so Discovery can write off $30 million pic.twitter.com/Ikqx0LMt4L

Thankfully, and despite the drama and rumors surrounding HBO Max, it seems unlikely that The Last of Us series will be dropped. As Comicbook.com notes, The Last of Us is an HBO show, not an HBO Max title, and HBO titles air on the TV network with a simultaneous release on HBO Max. HBO Max originals, meanwhile, go straight to the streamer. The current chaos surrounding WarnerMedia has only surrounded HBO Max and Discovery+, not the cable network. This means fans can breathe a sigh of relief, as The Last of Us is most likely safe.
