Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim says he would be excited to see a “blown up,” post-apocalyptic version of city hall after announcing that the hit HBO TV series “The Last of Us” will film Season 2 in “Hollywood North,” moving from Alberta.
The filming will provide Vancouver with more “swagger,” said Sim, adding the series has been one of the most popular and critically acclaimed shows this year.
He said executives for “The Last of Us” were still deciding where to film the next season of the wildly popular show, which stars Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey as their characters traverse the United States 20 years after a fungal pandemic collapses society.“All of a sudden you've landed one of the biggest productions in the country's history, it just feels amazing,” Sim said.
It was his understanding that it cost about $15 million to make each of the nine episodes of the show's first season in Alberta.
