Season 2 of The Last of Us continues to expand its cast. HBO brings back a face familiar to players of the game and will adapt some of the events.
It was one of the phenomena of last year and The Last of Us series swept away everything that came its way. Audience success, prestigious awards… the adaptation exceeded all expectations. Of course, the sequel is especially anticipated at this time and the cast continues to grow with the return of an actor from the game.
A returning gaming actor for season 2 of The Last of Us
Filming for the second season of The Last of Us is currently in full swing. Bella Ramsey and Pedro Pascal are back in action to film the continuation of the adventures of Joel and Ellie. A handful of upcoming episodes based on the events of The Last of Us Part 2, without covering the entire installment. The game would then be split into two seasons, without us knowing exactly when Neil Druckmann and Craig Mazin plan to stop for this second season. However, we do know that the backstory that pits the Washington Liberation Front (WLF) against the Seraphites will definitely be covered. HBO has just confirmed that Jeffrey Wright will reprise his role in the second season of The Last of Us.
The actor, known for his appearances in Westworld and The Batman, will reprise the role of Isaac Dixon, which he already played in the game TLOU 2, which ultimately revealed little about the past of the ruthless leader of the Washington Liberation Front. Abby is a member. He should benefit from the same treatment as other supporting characters whose story was developed thanks to the first season of The Last of Us series. This was the case, for example, with Bill and Tess, but also with those mentioned in the game who were not present, such as Ellie’s mother or Frank.
Filming for the season is still ongoing in Vancouver, Canada. Since there are a lot of stolen images, some clues may come to light sooner. Otherwise, we’ll have to wait until the first half of 2025 to see him back in action in The Last of Us Season 2.
