In addition to The Last of Us, he has composed music for movies and TV shows such as Santaolalla, Brokeback Mountain, Into the Wild, Narcos: Mexico and more.
Santaolalla will also work for The Last of Us Part 2, which launches on PlayStation 4 on May 29.
Druckmann has announced that he is collaborating with Chernobyl creator Craig Mazin to bring The Last of Us to HBO as a limited television series. TLOU2 content is likely to appear in this new HBO TV show, and Druckmann recently said that some characters from the upcoming sequel may appear.
