The Last of Us: What Are Their Odds Of Winning These Awards?
The competition is pretty tough, I'm not gonna lie. There are lots of cross-nominations with the hit series Succession that may beat The Last of Us to the punch.
Personally, I'm a little bit bitter that Ashley Johnson (who played Ellie's mother in the show and the OG Ellie in the games) didn't get a nomination, but I'll manage. With Succession as competition, it could be hard to get the lead acting categories – our guest actors and actresses may have better chances there.
Thankfully, the HBO adaptations is better than the PC version of The Last of Us.
