A new actress joins the cast of the series The Last of Us for season 2. Her statements confirm that there will be something new!
The filming of the season 2 of The Last of Us is in full swing in Canada. The HBO teams are working hard to provide a sequel that lives up not only to the success of the first season, but also and above all to The Last of Us Part II. In fact, the next episodes will adapt a large part of this sequel, which had broken records for awards received upon its release.
Expected for 2025, this new season is starting to reveal itself little by little. We were recently treated to the first official images of the casting. Thus, we rediscovered Bella Ramsey And Pedro Pascal in their respective roles as Ellie and Joel. But, this time, it’s another actress from the series who tells us more in an interview.
The sequel to The Last of Us HBO reveals a little more
It was the media Premiere which had the first opportunity to hear his statements. Actress Catherine O’Hara (Beetlejuice, Mom I missed the plane) spoke about her participation in the series. A priori, she will not only be an extra in this season 2 of The Last of Us. In fact, she “ will appear in three episodes » out of the seven planned in total.
Officialized in a still unknown role last February, rumors are rife as to the character she could play. Given her age, some have speculated that she may be playing the Seraphite prophetess depicted in the game but never seen before. However, since we know that unpublished elements will be included in this season, it is not impossible to see on screen a character only mentioned in the original version, like Anna in season 1.
However, O’Hara’s statements suggest otherwise. The actress explains that she spent her “ first day of filming 100% alongside Pedro [Pascal] “. The second day, ” it was the same but with Bella [Ramsey] “. From then on, she would more likely play a resident of Jackson. However, if we look behind the scenes at the design of TLOU2, we learn that Joel Miller must have had a romance in the game. This aspect was ultimately ousted to further tighten the action. But, it is not impossible that it will be addressed in the series.
However, we will surely have to wait for the release of season 2 to find out who O’Hara is actually playing. Still, the actress seems to flourish on the set, even though she says how much it was “ intense “. Apparently, she was struck by the good atmosphere and the cohesion between the teams. Even more, she admires Pascal and Ramsey’s ability to “ shoot such strong scenesthen laugh as much during the breaks “. Great things are coming for the sequel to The Last of Us!
