More footage from the set of HBO’s upcoming The Last of Us TV adaption has come to light, and it appears to confirm that we will be seeing more of the original game’s backstory when it airs.
The footage in question was shot in downtown Calgary and shows Military forces moving through the city’s streets.

As the trucks make their way through, red flares go off from the nearby buildings and celebratory gunfire can be seen and heard. The extras making up the crowds on these streets appear to be shouting “Freedom!” and “Fuck FEDRA!”.
You can check out the footage for yourself below.

The footage shown suggests this scene will depict the Pittsburgh Quarantine Zone before the events of The Last of Us, around the time the Hunters (a group of hostile survivors) overthrew FEDRA (the QZ’s original ruling faction) and ultimately took control of the zone. Please do note, however, this is just my theory.
