Are they just going to make a TV version of the first game's story? That would be terrible and unnecessary, the game already does a great job with it. It would be much more interesting to follow the story from the beginning of the outbreak to the game's timeline from the perspectives of people besides Joel and Ellie, e.g., doctors, the army, and eventually the fireflies.

Elliot Page should be offered the role of Joel, only then things would come full circle (Ellie's face in early footage from the first game was based on his likeness).
Also, wasn't Mahershala Ali going to play Blade ? I'm interested in seeing that as long as it's R-rated. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!
