Adam Basil in his best physical shape to be the giant zombie in "The Last Of Us"

In the HBO Max hit series there is a huge bulbous zombie infected for decades by a super contagious fungus. In fact, he was the only zombie to reach that huge size. Within the fact of this huge zombie is the British actor Adam Basil and everything is due to his excellent physical form, as prosthesis designer Barrie Gower said: Adam Basil had the perfect "construction, circumference and physical conditioning" for the bloat.

The fact weighs almost 45 kilos, which makes this fact much heavier than actor Jamie Campbell Bower used to play Vecna in "Stranger Things". "We have a whole copy of his body that we model the bloater prostheses on in modeling clay," the designer said in an interview with Variety.

"We threw it from a foam rubber and foam latex, which is very light. It's almost like a upholstery foam, a very spongy type of material. All this was molded and molded into separate sections: upper half, head, arms, legs. We had a team that manufactured all these pieces together. We had a zipper on the back and around the waist so we could close them together. He had all these pendulum folds of fungi that hid zippers and poppers,” he concluded.
