The premiere of TheLastOfUs was HBO's second largest behind HouseOfTheDragon
It's safe to say The Last of Us is a bonafide hit for HBO. The adaptation of the popular Naughty Dog game debuted on HBO and HBO Max Sunday night with an oversized episode, racking up a record viewership for the company. The success of video game adaptations has typically been mixed, with TV shows and movies attempting to bring fan-favorite characters and storylines to the small and big screens. The tide may be turning to a more positive note, however, as The Last of Us drew 4.
If that wasn't impressive enough, The Last of Us was also a hit on social media. The debut was the top trending topic in the U.S. and worldwide on Twitter Sunday night. The Last of Us teasers and trailers amassed more than 100 million views globally. The first episode of The Last of Us companion podcast also landed the #1 spot on Apple's TV & Film chart in the U.S. within 24 hours of its release.
"Our focus was simply to make the best possible adaptation of this beloved story for as big an audience as we could," said Executive Producers Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann."We are overjoyed to see how many fans, both old and new, have welcomed The Last of Us into their homes and their hearts."
