Production is underway on HBO’s upcoming series adaptation of The Last of Us. In celebration of The Last of Us Day, a special event that has taken place annually since 2013, the very first teaser image of Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey as Joel and Ellie has been shared.
The Last of Us is based on Naughty Dog’s critically acclaimed action-adventure survival video game, which first landed on the PlayStation console in 2013. Set 20 years after modern civilization has been destroyed, the series follows Joel, a hardened survivor, who is hired to smuggle Ellie, a 14-year-old girl, out of an oppressive quarantine zone. What starts as a small job soon becomes a brutal, heartbreaking journey, as they both must traverse across the U.S. and depend on each other for survival.
The series also stars Gabriel Luna as Joel’s brother Tommy, Merle Dandridge as Marlene, Nico Parker as Joel’s daughter, Jeffrey Pierce as a rebel in a quarantine zone named Perry, and Anna Torv as Tess, a hardened survivor and smuggler. Additionally, Murray Bartlett and Con O’Neill will guest star as two survivalists named Frank and Bill, respectively.
The Last of Us is written by Craig Mazin (Chernobyl) and Neil Druckmann, director of the video game and co-president of Naughty Dog, and is a co-production with Sony Pictures Television.

In the seventh and final episode of Midnight Mass, “Book VII: Revelation,” the tides of change are upon Crockett Island, and it’s a bloody affair. Let’s take a look at how everything panned out.
A second chance
Mildred wakes up outside of St. Patrick’s, and the transformation has made her entirely young again. She walks inside of the church to find Father Paul. The two sit side by side, Mildred holding one of his hands, and they talk. He admits to her that the entire reason that he brought the vampire — the angel — back to the island was for her and Sarah … their daughter. He didn’t want Mildred to die, he wanted to save her.
He solemnly reflects back on how they wasted their entire lives staring at one another across the church. He was too scared to come down there and be with her, too scared to tell their daughter the truth. Father Paul tells Mildred that if she would have shown up and asked him to take the collar off, he would have gone anywhere in the world with her.
Now, they can be a family. Getting a second chance? That’s the real miracle.
Door-to-door vampires
Eike Schroter/Netflix
Set free to “spread the gospel” by Beverly, the newly turned vampires begin going door-to-door throughout the town, attacking those who were not at midnight mass. Sarah, Erin, Sheriff Hassan, Warren, Annie, and Leeza have hunkered down at Erin’s house, but Sturge and Beverly soon find them.
Annie goes outside to confront them so that the others can escape, and she knocks Beverly down a peg or two in the process as she tells her that God doesn’t love her any more than anyone else. When Beverly realizes that she’s stalling, Annie slits her throat to distract them further.
When Sturge asks Beverly if they should put out the fire that has begun to spread from the Molotov cocktails that they threw into Erin’s house, she says no. She believes that this is Revelation. Let it burn. And thus they go about burning down every single building on the island besides the church and the rec center.
Humanity remains
Although most of the town has turned into bloodthirsty monsters, spilling profuse amounts of blood against a fiery backdrop, not all have lost their humanity. Annie, freshly turned after her death outside of Erin’s house, finds her husband Ed. He watches as his fellow townsfolk feed on one another and tells Annie that it’s not impossible to hold back from feeding on others. He can hold back from giving in to the hunger.
Vampire sleepover
Beverly has filled the rec center with cots for those that have been chosen. When she brings Father Paul and Mildred outside to proudly show them the burning island, Father Paul tells her that they were wrong and this needs to stop. He now recognizes the error in his ways.
Undeterred from her biblical mission, Beverly dismisses him as her leader and tells him that she hopes they both enjoy the sunrise. Afterward, Sturge informs Beverly that the boats were burned (courtesy of Sarah, Erin, and Sheriff Hassan), so they have no way of leaving the island now.
Let it burn
Father Paul finds Sarah pouring gasoline inside of the church, and he says, “Good.” She’s surprised, and then he goes on to finally admit to her that he’s her father. He tells her how proud of her he is. And then Sturge shoots her.
As Mildred and Father Paul cradle their dying daughter in their arms on the floor, Father Paul attempts to feed her his blood to save her. She spits it out. They carry Sarah’s body out of St. Patrick’s and light the church on fire on their way out.
Meanwhile, Sheriff Hassan and Erin have sabotaged the rec center with gasoline as well. The ancient vampire grabs Erin and begins to feed on her while Sheriff Hassan — shot by Beverly — falls to his knees. Ali, still holding on to his humanity, steps forward to toss the lighter, setting the town’s last salvation on fire. There is nowhere left for them to hide before sunrise.
We are the cosmos dreaming of itself
As the birds on the island begin to chirp, signaling a new day, the ancient vampire feeding on Erin gets up to fly away and seek shelter. It struggles, however, because she had cut holes in its wings while it fed on her.
Erin, lying on the ground and dying, stares up at the stars above. She thinks back to her conversation with Riley, where they discussed what happens when you die. She knows the correct answer now. What follows is a beautiful, breathtaking introspection on life, death, time, dreams, and the cosmos.
And so the sun rises
Leeza and Warren watch from the rowboat as the sun rises over the burning island. The ancient vampire is attempting to head west to escape, but it can barely fly, so it won’t make it. The townsfolk gather, waiting for the sun to rise, and they begin to sing.
Beverly desperately tries to dig herself a hole in the sand to no avail. Sheriff Hassan and Ali pray together on the beach one last time. Father Paul finally removes his collar and tosses it away as he and Mildred look down at their daughter’s lifeless body. He turns to Mildred and asks him to forgive her. They kiss.
And finally, Leeza turns to Warren and tells him that she can’t feel her legs. It’s over.

In the sixth episode of Midnight Mass, “Book IV: Acts of the Apostles,” Erin is still reeling from Riley’s fiery death. She teams up with Sarah and her mother Mildred, but it may be too late, because Father Paul has big plans for Crockett Island during Easter Vigil …
Let’s take a look at the major takeaways from this episode.
Erin looks for backup
Eike Schroter/Netflix
As the morning sun rises, Erin rows back to shore and walks through the town in a daze. She arrives at Sarah’s doorstep, knowing she’s the one person in town who might be able to help her. After telling her everything that happened, Sarah agrees with Erin that her story is crazy, but she believes her. She shows Erin her mother’s blood samples, which immediately catch fire as soon as she places them in the sunlight.
Erin, Sarah, and Mildred sit around the kitchen table and try to understand what’s happening to everyone on the island, and Sarah compares the strange properties of the blood with Erythropoietic Protoporphyria. They also discuss how this would explain why Erin’s baby disappeared from inside of her without a trace.
Riley’s last letters
Before Riley rowed off to his death with Erin, he left letters behind for his parents and Warren. Ed brings these letters to Father Paul the next day, distraught, and he tells him that Riley wrote unsettling things in them. Believing that he’s unwell and delusional, he felt it would be best to give them to Father Paul, along with a letter that Riley had addressed to Monsignor Pruitt.
When Ed leaves, Father Paul opens the letter that’s clearly for him. Riley’s final words to him are, “Remember we are dust, and to dust we shall return.”
Sheriff Hassan’s story
Sarah pays Sheriff Hassan a visit and insinuates that there’s a contagion being spread to the island’s residents — intentionally — at St. Patricks. She plans on taking blood samples to the mainland to get checked out, but she wants Sheriff Hassan to keep an eye on the church in the meantime.
This stirs something inside of Sheriff Hassan, and he finally tells the story of why he moved to Crockett Island. After 9/11, he was inspired to join the New York Police Department. He worked his way up through the force, eventually securing an important, high level position. However, things grew difficult as targeted racism toward himself and other Muslims in the police force became commonplace.
His wife encouraged him to carry himself with dignity regardless, which he did until the day she died. After she passed, he couldn’t handle it anymore, and so he desperately sought out the open position on Crockett Island — a quiet, safe place to live. Sheriff Hassan tells Sarah how he doesn’t overstep in this new posting, and he doesn’t even carry a gun. And yet still there are people on the island who are racist toward him because he is Muslim.
Later, at home, Ali pleads with his dad to join him for midnight mass. Father Paul has a big surprise for everyone. Sheriff Hassan has no desire to go, but after speaking with Sarah, the fact that Father Paul is making such a big deal out of the Vigil is clearly a red flag for him.
A stranded town with no escape
When Sarah, Mildred, and Erin arrive at the docks to take the ferry, Sturge fumbles his way through a series of excuses about how the mayor sent them out to be repaired. Later, the power goes out, and we see that this has all been carefully orchestrated as Wade and Sturge are compromising the power station. They’ve already taken out half of the boats on the island, and Sturge will be taking care of the rest.
Starting at the mayor’s house, members of the town gather in a singing, candlelit procession on the way to St. Patrick’s for the Easter Vigil. Though Sarah, Mildred, and Erin had no intention of going to mass at all, they have no choice but to join in. After all, there’s nowhere else they can go, because the island is 30 miles from shores of the mainland.
During the procession, Sturge also cuts the wires to the town’s cell tower.
Midnight mass(acre)
Father Paul enters the Easter Vigil wearing his gold chasuble. He reflects back on when he wore one on his first day. He clarifies that it was not a mistake, because he was a special day indeed. He admits to the townsfolk that he has lied to them, and finally reveals his identity as Monsignor Pruitt.
Finally ready to share the miraculous gift with them all, Father Paul brings Sturge up for a presentation. Sturge drinks from a cup of water with rat poison in it, and he eventually falls to the floor and dies. The entire room is shaken.
Sheriff Hassan grabs Ali and goes to leave, but the path to the doorway is blocked by the vampire (who looks even creepier donning a gold chasuble). Father Paul is pleased to finally introduce his “angel” to the people of Crockett Island. Sturge wakes up; the resurrection has begun.
Cups full of water and rat poison are handed out to everyone in the room. The blood of the vampire — err, angel — is in everyone’s bodies (courtesy of them taking communion at church), but they need to die in order for the transformation to take effect. Sheriff Hassan is outraged, and he draws his gun (which he decided to carry after all) to bring order to the room, shooting it at the ceiling. He’s pinned to the ground, though, and is forced to watch as his son drinks the poison. (Rahul Kohli’s performance in this scene was incredible.)
Sarah, Mildred, and Erin try to stop people from drinking the poison, but many of them do it anyway. Mildred gets ahold of Sheriff Hassan’s gun and shoots Father Paul in the head, and the vampire roars and grabs her, flying off into the night.
As bodies begin to fall to the floor, it seems that at least half of the room chose not to partake Father Paul’s cult. As the newborn vampires begin to rise, they find that they can’t control their hunger with all of the warm, living bodies surrounding them. And thus an absolute bloodbath commences.
Sheriff Hassan, Erin, Sarah, Leeza, Warren, and Annie manage to escape to the back room, where they find Beverly hiding out. Erin shoots her without much fanfare, buying them time to escape.
When Beverly wakes up, she steps out from the back room to find bodies everywhere and the interior walls of the church covered in blood. She tells Sturge to unlock the doors and let them roam the town, for it is time to spread the gospel.

With the introduction of Tom Swift and the Bobbsey Twins to season 2 of Nancy Drew, the writers of the series indicated that they would be mining the legacy Stratemeyer Syndicate characters and reimagining them for the modern era. Who are the most famous of those characters? Nancy Drew … and the Hardy Boys. Frank and Joe Hardy have been paired with Nancy for years, with the original Nancy Drew television show in the 1970s featuring the adventures of both Nancy and the Hardys each week.
While the two book series wasn’t initially meant to cross over, Nancy and the Hardy Boys have appeared in each other’s worlds for years, both in adaptations and in spin-off book series. Back in the early development of Nancy Drew in 2019, executive producer Noga Landau cryptically answered, “We’ll see,” in response to a question about the Hardys making an appearance, and no explicit reference to the brothers has been made on the series thus far. This begs the question: if the Nancy Drew writers are turning to characters like Tom Swift and the Bobbseys to create a so-called “Drewniverse,” where are Frank and Joe?
Fans of Nancy Drew have an answer to that question, and it’s one fan theory that adds up. Since the premiere of the series in 2019, fans have assembled evidence to prove that at least one Hardy Boy has been in Horseshoe Bay from the beginning: Ace. The lovable hacker is a fan-favorite character, and at first, it appears that he is an original addition among the many book characters like Nancy and Carson Drew, Hannah Gruen, Bess Marvin, George Fan (Fayne), and Nick Nickerson. But on closer inspection, the clues pointing towards Ace being a Hardy have been there all along.
In order to understand how the Hardy Boys could potentially fit into Nancy Drew, we need to go back to their origins. The Hardy Boys were first introduced in 1927, with Nancy Drew arriving in 1930 as a direct result of the success of the Hardy Boys. She was meant to appeal to a female audience while the Hardys were aimed at young boys. Frank and Joe complement each other, with Frank being the logical thinker and Joe being a man of action. The tone of the series varies widely from decade to decade, but the general impression of the Hardys on popular culture is that of two clean-cut, All-American brothers solving crimes in the same way that Nancy Drew is seen as the All-American girl with insatiable curiosity.
Much like Nancy Drew, the Hardy Boys have had many incarnations over the years, with the original Hardy Boys Mystery Stories from the 1920s, 30s, and 40s getting extensive rewrites in the 1950s before their re-release. The Hardy Boys were rebooted in The Hardy Boys: Undercover Brothers from 2005-12. The currently running book series is The Hardy Boys Clue Book, which is aimed at younger audiences and features interactive elements.
The Hardy Boys have also appeared on-screen several times, with and without Nancy Drew. Their earliest depiction on screen was on The Mickey Mouse Club in the 1950s, where the boys featured in two episodes. There was an attempt to make a Hardy Boys television series for NBC in the 1960s, but after the pilot premiered to low ratings the project was abandoned.

However, the next attempt at bringing the Hardys to life would be successful — to the detriment of Nancy Drew. Wanting to combine the two popular series, producers created a hybrid of the two titled The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries in 1977. It alternated between the adventures of the Hardys and Nancy Drew on a weekly basis. There was no crossover between the two storylines in the first season and an equal number of episodes for the Hardys and Nancy. The series as a whole became a favorite of teens, with stars Pamela Sue Martin (who made a cameo in Nancy Drew‘s pilot), Shaun Cassidy, and Parker Stevenson gaining popularity as a result.
However, the second season saw Nancy pushed aside in favor of the Hardy brothers. The storylines combined through crossover episodes, with Nancy leading her own mystery in just three episodes. Martin quit in protest, leading to Nancy being recast with Janet Louise Johnson before being dropped from the series entirely for its third season, retitled The Hardy Boys. This pivot was a failure, and The Hardy Boys was canceled midseason.
In 1995 two additional Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew series were attempted, both facing cancellation after one season and airing as reruns on The WB. The latest and arguably the most successful adaptation thus far is The Hardy Boys on Hulu, which began airing in 2020 and will return for a second season in 2022.
The Case for Ace
Colin Bentley/The CW
With that history established, how does Ace fit into the Hardy Boy theory? Let’s start with some basic comparisons between Ace and the existing Hardy Boys canon. First, and most obviously, Ace has a brother. Grant was introduced midway through season 2 after being teased since the first season, and their chemistry in “The Trail of the Missing Witness” indicates more team-ups are ahead for the two of them. But the similarities between Ace and Grant and the Hardy Boys don’t end there.
As part of the reboot of the Hardy Boys in 2005, some key changes were made to canon. Frank and Joe’s father Fenton went from being an active investigator to a semi-retired police officer, while their mother Laura became a librarian. Why is this significant? Well, Ace and Grant’s father Thom is a semi-retired police officer while Ace’s mother Rebecca’s profession as a librarian is a major plot point in Nancy Drew. Ace and Grant’s first case together with Nancy culminates in a dramatic scene in an old paper mill — a direct Easter egg for the popular early Hardy Boys book The Secret of the Old Mill. For writers who frequently reference obscure Nancy Drew lore in Easter eggs for book fans, these connections are too purposeful to be a coincidence.
Ace is also the only member of the Drew Crew who doesn’t have a Nancy Drew book counterpart. Nick, George, and Bess are all based on Nancy’s friends in the books, even if their personalities are completely different. Additionally, and tellingly: he is the only Drew Crew member without a last name. We know Grant’s mother’s last name is Davis, but at no point do Grant, Ace, or any other character say their father Thom’s last name despite many opportunities to do so. In a show where every detail matters, this glaring omission speaks volumes. Why create only one brand new character with no connection to the books within the Drew Crew, then go through great lengths to avoid giving him an identifying last name? It feels like a strange story choice — unless you were trying to hide that character’s status as a Hardy Boy.
Now, where the comparisons get tricky is in Ace’s personality. He doesn’t really match Frank or Joe, and neither does Grant. But this is where the Nancy Drew writers’ subversion of the classic characters they include comes in handy. Tom Swift was changed from a white character who was a symbol of American (read: white) ingenuity to a Black, gay billionaire while the Bobbsey Twins went from children with silly adventures to skilled thieves played by South Asian actors. The creators have mentioned before that part of their goal with this new Nancy Drew was to modernize the characters, especially considering that many of the Stratemeyer Syndicate stories were overtly racist before being overhauled. Even Nancy is explored in more depth than she was in her original books. It stands to reason that their new take on the Hardy Boys would contain a departure from the brothers we know.
Cristian Perri as Phil Cohen in ‘The Hardy Boys’/Hulu
But departure doesn’t have to mean unrecognizable. In fact, a character in Hardy Boys canon appears to be the perfect template for Ace and only bolsters the theory: Phil Cohen. Phil Cohen is Frank Hardy’s best friend and is one of the first mainstream Jewish characters in literature portrayed in a positive light and as being part of a friend group with WASP-y characters like Frank and Joe. Phil is a quiet, affable character who is the electronics whiz for the brothers. This fits Ace’s personality perfectly. He is a sweet, easygoing hacker who always keeps his cool in stressful situations, and his Jewish faith is an important part of his story.
Ultimately, it all comes back to the writing style of Nancy Drew and the attention to detail shown by the writers. First, the writers have already pulled off one brother related twist involving Ace. Grant’s introduction to the series was teased midway through season 1, with Ace’s secret brother being a key part of the series from the beginning as it was the reason Ace was spying for McGinnis. The twist within the twist came when Grant, The Claw’s newest employee, turned out to be the mysterious long-lost brother Ace was searching for.
With Grant’s reveal came the introduction of The Road Back, a shadowy group that is set to be one of the major antagonists of season 3. While Grant returned to living with his mother and left Horseshoe Bay, a character as long-awaited as Grant doesn’t simply disappear. There’s more to Grant’s story, and creating a Grant/Ace team by officially naming them as Hardy Boys would be a massive game-changer.
As previously mentioned, everything the Nancy Drew writers do is intentional, with tiny details coming back later and playing a key role in the plot. Additionally, these writers have studied every detail of the Stratemeyer Syndicate canon and enjoy hiding references to the books. Knowing this, the many teases and connections linking Ace and Grant to the Hardy Boys become impossible to write off as coincidence.
Why This Works
Colin Bentley/The CW
As the old saying goes, just because you can do something, doesn’t mean you should. So why is season 3 the perfect time to officially welcome the Hardy Boys to Horseshoe Bay? The most important factor is the fact that Nancy has now had two full seasons without the Hardy Boys. In the past, and as was proven by The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries, the pairing of Nancy and the Hardys has sidelined Nancy in favor of the male characters. After all, executive producer Landau was asked about the Hardy Boys before Nancy Drew had even premiered. Introducing them too soon ran the risk of pushing Nancy from the spotlight on her own show. By this point, Nancy is unquestionably the protagonist of Nancy Drew. Even if Grant was brought on in a regular capacity after a Hardy Boys reveal, Nancy would remain the focus of the story.
Ace’s arc is also at a natural point where introducing Hardy origins would propel his story forward. Now that he has found Grant, his main side plot from the past two seasons is resolved. As of now, season 3 will have Ace “on a path to figure out his calling in life” while working out his romantic feelings for Nancy. With Grant’s connection to The Road Back and Ace’s desire to assist Nancy in her mystery solving, Ace growing into his potential as a hacker for good would coincide perfectly with him being revealed as a Hardy.
Why has it been so difficult to create adaptations for the Hardys (and Nancy Drew, for that matter)? Part of the difficulty is deciding what kind of series to make: a wholesome tribute to the 1950s Hardys that ignores the more unsavory aspects of canon, or a more adult version meant to appeal to those who grew up with the Hardy Boys but are looking for grittier fare now? Most of the Hardy Boys shows and more modern book series have split the difference, leading to tonally confusing stories that don’t retain the spark of the original novels.
But Nancy Drew is proving that these stories can be updated in a fresh way that honors the source material while challenging it, as the show did with the introduction of Tom Swift. Ace and Grant becoming the new Hardy Boys would not only fit with the show’s trademark of updating dated characters but also work as a brilliantly twisty bit of fan service.
Nancy Drew returns for its third season on October 8 on The CW. Be sure to check out our other coverage of the show here!
