People who played the sequel to video games in 2020 "The Last of Us Part II" all knew this was coming, but they may not expect it soon. In the second season of games creator Neil Drakmann and the prestige of Prestigan Craig Mazin to adapt to HBO's "Last of Us", Viewers looked at shock and horror likeAt the end of the second episode of the season "Through the Valley", Abi (Caitlin Dever) killed Elloel Miller, one of the protagonists in the series played by Pedro Pascal. At the end of the first season of the show, Elloel kills the whole rebel building to protect his surrogate daughter Eli (White Ramsey), who is immune to the Cordissus virus ... and may be vital to find a cure, but she will have to die for it. ELOEL decided to kill a bunch of people, including an unarmed doctor who, learning in the "via valley", was Abi's father ... And five years later, he paid the final price.

In an interview with Hollywood reporterMazin said that, although everyone familiar with the video game knew Elloel's fate, he still wanted the scene to be filled with so much uncertainty and fears that they would ask if he could somehow survive the attack by Abi. "The audience should doubt everything," Mazin said before saying that despite Abi's insistence that she will Kill ELOEL, she can change her mind. "But what was important here was that when Eloel ended up in that room with Abi and her friends, we are that we are no shocked. We are, in fact, in a state of fear because it happens. We are constantly thinking that it should be a way out of this to the very end. "
That's when Mazin talked to one of the saddest - and the highlights of the stage. "And it was important, that nice moment when Eli says," Elloel, please get up " - that's us," Mazin said, confirming that this accessory was only created for the show. He continued:
"And he has tried that movement of his fingers. It's just a heart. Mark (Milod, episode director) And I spent so much time just talking about where everyone would be. We spent the day on the floor, trying different positions, finding that perfect place of connection and where everyone else would be. It was very much to make sure that Bella and Pedro and Caitlin were able to do this maximally disturbing thing. "

ELOEL realizes that he deserves his fate, according to Craig Mazin
Another deeply daunting aspect of ELOEL's death's death is that he is not only powerless to stop Abi - she and her friends surpass him and Dina (Isabella Merced), Acksexone resident, who is the best friend of Eli and a new kind of surrogate daughter You want to stop Abi. According to Mazin, Elloel's unwillingness and unwillingness to fight at all is the main part of ELOEL's narrative and image.

"When Abi says to him," I will kill you, because there are some things we all agree with, it's wrong, "there was a little moment on a deal," Mazin told the interviewer Jamesimes Hiberd. But he also had no choice (but the murder of the fireflies last season) as he saw it. He did what he had to do. So, we already know that he has a fault for that from the stage of episode one. "(With that last part, Mazin refers to ELOEL scene with Acksecson resident Gail, played by Catherine O'Hara; That particularly influential sequence actually lasted all day to shoot.)
Mazin Also Hiberd told that a major change in the "via valley" helps to inform Elloel's way of thinking - what, in the game, Elloel Tommy's brother (Gabriel Luna) is with the ELOEL and Abi gang when he dies. The play puts dine in action instead, and simply strengthens that Willoel Will Always Protect the people he loves, a category that includes Dina. "It is also one of the reasons we made a change from the game to have ELOEL in that room with Dina, as opposed to Tommy, who is a big, tough man," Mazin explained. "Abi basically said:" Make a mistake and we will kill it. " And, if there is something we know about ELOEL, it's that he's a kind of ultimate father.

Craig Mazin thinks all the links made in the last of us made this scene particularly deep
Okay, so Why? Why did one of this happen, besides the relatively simple explanation (what is that Abi loved his father and wants to punish the man who killed him)? For a show that is supposedly about Zombie Apocalypse, "The Last of Us" actually focuses on the ways people treat each other once society falls apart, and this is a perfect example. Even though ELOEL saves Abi from infected horde just a little bit Before she brutally killed himShe cannot see her own myopic need for revenge, somehow able to look beyond the ordinary enemy that both hits both to avenge.

"That's how things end," Craig Mazz told Jamesesheims Hiberd, putting him outdoors before he continued to say that this moment and sequence in "The Last of Us" is just ... what about mankind at the end of the day. He continued:
"We Break All Relationships, All the Great Loves of Our Life. The Connections We have with our parents, our Children - They Break. To take this Girl - Who had been literally born in blood, who had been an orphan - which was then handed off to this guy and give her a chance at this (Experience). Great Bond Between a parent and a child - and then breaks that's it.
