Horror fans rejoice, for The Evil Dead‘s Sam Raimi has been attached to The Last of Us feature film.

Raimi will co-produce the movie alongside Neil Druckmann.

It wouldn’t be a Raimi film without Evil Dead‘s lead, Bruce Campbell… though don’t expect the famous B-grade actor to be playing Joel. Game of Thrones‘ Maisie Williams has also been reportedly considered for the feature role of Ellie.

The Last of Us: Remastered will be available for PS4 tomorrow. It was released on PS3 last year.
