Game news Long before the release of The Last of Us 2, he knew that Sony’s video game would make “a lot of people angry”.
The actor, who lent his voice to one of the characters in the iconic title, knew that the sequel would not please everyone.
The Last of Us was especially present in 2023. First, the franchise stood out brilliantly with series adaptations airing on HBO and Amazon Prime Video in France for Warner Pass subscribers.. It adapts the events described in the first game according to the new vision of its creator Neil Druckman and showrunner Craig Mazin. This adaptation allowed the franchise to expand its horizons and introduce itself to non-video game audiences. So viewers were able to see Pedro Pascal in the role of Joel earlier last year, alongside Bella Ramsey who plays Ellie. A second season is also planned, and its casting is increasingly revealed.
On the video game side, a PC version was released, but was not unanimously acclaimed upon release due to numerous bugs. What’s more, fans recently suffered another disappointment when The Last of Us Online was canceled a few weeks ago in order for Naughty Dog to focus more on his solo projects.
At the beginning of the year, this franchise is still being talked about, but this time with its second creation that was released in 2020. Almost four years later, a statement from Joel’s voice actor, Troy Baker, caused internet users to react. He readily admitted that the sequel would not please everyone by making players “angry”.
