Sony has tried (and tried again) to get a film based on Uncharted out of development hell, and it seems that wasn’t the only property Sony was interested in making the transition. Apparently, they were also trying to get at least an animated short for another Naughty Dog property made in The Last of Us.
According to Nerds4.life, Sony was producing a 20-minute movie based on the original game, with the intention to get everyone up to speed with what’s transpired ahead of The Last of Us Part II being released on May 29th. That project has now been cancelled.
A batch of stills from the animated short has made it online, though there doesn’t appear to be any context to the images. The images appear to originate from a creative agency known as Oddfellows, which used these images as part of its portfolio. However, any trace of the project has been scrubbed from their site. Luckily, someone was able to snag the images before the purge, and posted them on Imgur for safe keeping.
