‘The Last of Us’: Did you recognize these actors from ‘Dances with Wolves’ and ‘Doctor in Alaska’ in episode 6?

At the beginning of episode 1×06 of ‘The Last of Us’, the sixth of the first season of the HBO series, we see how Joel (Pedro Pascal) and Ellie (Bella Ramsey) continue on their way several weeks after the tragic events that occurred in Kansas City and They reach the snowy woods of Wyomingvery close to finally meeting Tommy (Gabriel Luna).

There they meet a man and his wife, who live peacefully and apart from the rest of the world in their cabin. Returning from hunting rabbits, the man finds Joel pointing a gun at him and requesting his cooperation. The good way or the bad way. However, the couple of strangers, with very marked Native American features, are very calm and even smiling, although he is a little more grumpy than his wife.

they are Marlon (Graham Greene) and Florence (Elaine Miles), and surely their faces will ring a bell. And a lot.

Graham Greene was nominated for an Oscar for his performance as “Kicking Bird” in ‘Dances with Wolves’Kevin Costner’s 1990 film. Since then, his face has been seen in movies like ‘Die Hard: Revenge’, ‘The Green Mile’, ‘Wind River’ and ‘Antlers. dark creature’. The world of video games is no stranger to him either, having provided the voice of him for the open-world western’Red Dead Redemption II’. And of course, he has also appeared in other series like ‘Doctor in Alaska’where he shared the cast for 5 episodes with Elaine Mileshis wife in ‘The Last of Us’.

‘Doctor in Alaska’ (one of the best series of the 90s), precisely, has been the most important role of Miles’s career. His character Marilyn Whirlwind remained on the series from start to finish during its 110 episode run as Dr. Fleischman’s receptionistwho was unhinged with his brief answers and his permanent passivity.

According to IMDb, Greene and Miles appear in two episodes of ‘The Last of Us’. Although this is not an official confirmation since the platform is often wrong, it opens a door of hope for the return of Marlon and Florence’s marriage in the HBO Max series. AND nothing would make us happier than to check again that they are still safe and sound.
