The Last of Us series retained scenes directed by Russian filmmaker Kantemir Balagov
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
As it turned out, The Last of Us series crew did not completely scrap the content involving the Russian director
Russian director Kantemir Balagov worked on The Last of Us series for some time. Last year, his departure from the project became known.
Officially, his departure was linked to certain creative differences. The pilot episode of The Last of Us series on HBO filmed by him was not planned to be released.
The premiere of The Last of Us series took place on HBO, and Kantemir Balagov started receiving questions about whether anything he worked on remained in the series.
On social media, he posted “car” and “airplane” emojis. It is presumed that this refers to the scene where the protagonists escape by car while a plane crashes nearby.
The pilot episode of The Last of Us series included 40% of the material he shot for the first 40 minutes, i.e., about 16 minutes.
