The Last of Us Movie ‘is in Very Early Days’ as Maisie Williams Says She’s ‘Hopeful’ to Play Ellie

January 30, 2015 by Stephen Daly

‘Powerful people’ are helping get the movie off the ground.

Game of Thrones star Maisie Williams has said The Last of Us movie "is in very early days" and reiterated that she's interested in taking on the role of Ellie.

During a Reddit AMA earlier today, Williams, who plays Arya Stark in the HBO hit, remarked "The Last of Us movie is in very early days. I have spoken to powerful people who are getting The Last of Us on its feet. And I'm hopeful that I can play Ellie in the future, but we'll all have to wait and see."

This comes only a few days after The Last of Us writer Neil Druckmann, who is acting as producer and scriptwriter for the movie, commented that while the big screen adaptation would be "faithful" to the story of the game, fans can nevertheless expect some "big changes."

Druckmann also confirmed that the second draft of the script has had a table reading with the actors. In December, Williams said she "would love" to play Ellie.

The Last of Us developer Naughty Dog is currently making Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, which is due to be released later this year and many of those who worked on The Last of Us, including Druckmann, are tackling the game.
