Have you heard all of the wild stories that went into the making of the new HBO series The Last of Us? Based on the survival horror game franchise created by Naughty Dog, the series stars some iconic Game of Thrones alumni, including Bella Ramsay and Pedro Pascal. Pedro Pascal has also become a part of Star Wars history through his work on the Mandalorian for Disney+. And, believe it or not, that may have actually worked against him here, as he needed to ask The Walt Disney company for permission in order to work for a rival company. Not only that, but there were also some concerns that Joel’s relationship with Ellie may just be too comparable to the Mandalorian’s dynamic with Baby Yoda. Still, Pedro Pascal has said that he knew he wanted to work with Craig Mazin ever since he saw his work on the HBO miniseries Chernobyl. Bella Ramsey’s former Game of Thrones co-star Maisie Williams actually auditioned for the role of Ellie as well, but Neil Druckman felt that Bella Ramsey was perfect for the role. Several voice actors from the Last of Us game franchise will also be returning for the HBO series, including Merle Drandridge in the role of Marlene, Ashley Johnson, Troy Baker, and lastly, Misty Lee returns alongside Philip Kovats for the sounds of the Clickers. Troy Baker brings an extensive resume to the series, having previously provided voice work for franchises such as Batman and Marvel, while Ashley Johnson has even appeared in live action on the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the past!
