After a year of anticipation, HBO’s live-action adaption of ‘The Last Of Us’ premiered last week and to our delight is just as good as we hoped it would be. In fact, they did such a good job, that it’s been pretty difficult to determine where exactly in Alberta they shot some of the show’s biggest scenes so far.
Thanks to the trailer, we know that several provincial landmarks (such as the legislature buildings) will appear in the coming weeks, but it’s worth giving it up to those who worked on the set design and CGI.
To the average eye, most of Alberta is unrecognizable – but fear not, series sleuths, because Travel Alberta has us covered.
In favour of us focusing on dialogue, incredible performances and unreal effects – the government organization has created an interactive map, which is loaded with filming locations from Edmonton to Canmore.
