The Last of Us Ellie’s costume comes from the Sony video game The Last of Us. The character of Ellie is voiced by Ashley Johnson.

In The Last of Us, a pandemic that has raged for 20 years has completely decimated society. The infected humans effectively become zombies.

The humans that have survived without becoming infected are left to fend for themselves in the post-apocalyptic world. Survival can get pretty brutal in a world where food and supplies are steadily dwindling.

Ellie is one of the brave heroes of the story who decides to brave the world outside of the quarantine zone while on a mission to help the last remaining survivors.

She makes the trip with a man named Joel, who tries to protect the young girl on their journey.

Recently, The Last of Us was made into an acclaimed HBO TV series. This has increased the popularity of Ellie’s character and made her a popular cosplay choice.
