The wait has nearly come to an end and so begins the fun! After a year of anticipation, HBO’s ‘The Last Of Us,’ will premiere Sunday, January 15th, 2023.

Based on a popular video game, The Last Of Us stars Pedro Pascal (The Mandalorian) as a hardened smuggler tasked with escorting a young girl across post-apocalyptic America and already has a whopping 97% from critics on Rotten Tomatoes.

Excited to see it all in action? Canadians can watch the series on Crave or on HBO via their local TV Provider at 9:00 pm ET.

According to IMDB, each episode will run about 50 minutes – with the exception of the premiere which will be an hour and 25 minutes long – so pop some corn and prepare for a movie-length event.

Happy watching and keep those eagle eyes peeled!
