Since the release of Episode 2 of the massively mounted post-apocalyptic drama The Last of Us Season 2, fans just can’t stop raving about it. The highly rated episode titled ‘Through the Valley’ is being hailed by some of the viewers as one of the best episodes ever in the history of television. Many are comparing it to the grandeur and ambition of Game of Thrones. But that’s not the only connection between The Last of Us Season 2 and GOT.
The Interesting Connection Between The Last of Us & Game of Thrones
The second episode of the second season of The Last of Us series has been directed by veteran filmmaker Mark Mylod. Interestingly, the English director also went behind the camera to direct six episodes of Game of Thrones across multiple seasons. And the one episode that deserves to be mentioned here is Season 6 Episode 7 of Game of Thrones, which introduced Bella Ramsey’s character Lyanna Mormont in the show. For the unversed, Bella Ramsey is playing the lead role of Ellie in The Last of Us series.
The same connection holds for Succession as well. Because Mark Mylod has directed as many as sixteen episodes of the show. If you have watched the episodes directed by Mark Mylod in Game of Thrones and Succession, you would know that he was the perfect choice to direct the heartbreaking yet very crucial second episode of The Last of Us S2.
