The last of us season 2: here is Abby
The rumors were right. Last November, when filming on the second season of The Last of Us hadn’t yet begun, we learned that an actress had been found to play the character of Abby. As a reminder, in the video game The Last of Us Part IIfrom which this second season will be based, Abby is one of the new characters. The story takes place several years after the events of the first game (and season 1) and sees the appearance of this protagonist who crosses paths with Ellie. An important character since the player is even required to embody it in a good part of the game.
The actress Kaitlyn Dever it was therefore mentioned several months ago. And this is confirmed today via the Max (formerly HBO Max) account. Regarding this choice, showrunners Craig Mazin and Neil Druckman said in a statement (via The Hollywood journalist):
Our casting process for season two was the same as season one: we are looking for world-class actors who embody the soul of the characters in the source material. Nothing matters more than talent and we are thrilled to have an artist as acclaimed as Kaitlyn join Pedro Pascal, Bella Ramsey and the rest of our family.
Kaitlyn Dever’s latest roles
It’s fun to see Kaitlyn Dever take on the role of Abby, because for a long time some fans saw her as the perfect person to play… Ellie. The actress is in any case an interesting choice. We have already seen her in several roles. You recently participated in the casting of the romantic comedy Ticket to Paradisebefore playing the lead role in the play Rosalina onDisney+. But it is above all with Kickedalways on the Disney platform, where he left his mark a survival against the backdrop of an alien invasion and in which Kaitlyn Dever barely says a word.
However, to play Abby she will have to go in another direction. The character is quite physical and imposing in the video game. The filming of The last of us Season 2 is expected to begin very soon, with a desired broadcast in early 2025.
