The critically acclaimed TV series The Last of Us is poised to return for a second season. The show, based on the popular video game series of the same name, has everything you could ever want in a drama series: exceptional performances, expertly crafted storytelling, and emotionally wrenching narratives. And it all paid off earlier this year when the series picked up five nominations at the upcoming Emmy Awards.

HBO's decision to renew the show for a second season, inspired by the second video game in the franchise entitled The Last of Us Part II, comes as no surprise to fans and critics alike. But if you're not a huge gamer and don't know what to expect in the upcoming second season of The Last of Us, brace yourself for an even more intense ride!

The production of season two has faced obstacles due to the ongoing strikes by the Writers Guild of America (WGA) and the Screen Actors Guild‐American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA), but despite these challenges, the team behind the show managed to secure a pivotal casting decision before Hollywood ground to a halt.

Showrunner Craig Mazin confirmed that the character of Abby Anderson, a central antagonist in The Last of Us Part II, has officially been cast. Mazin confirmed the casting in an interview with the Los Angeles Times, but remained tight-lipped about the details.

"The role has been cast, but Mazin isn't dropping any spoilers," the Times reports.

With the ongoing strikes, the identity of the actor stepping into this challenging role remains a mystery, leaving fans both eager and concerned. As the strikes continue without a clear end in sight, the production of season two faces delays.

While the second season of The Last of Us remains shrouded in uncertainty, fans await the revelation of who will take on the role of Abby, hoping for a resilient and brave performer who can do justice to this iconic character.

The first season of The Last of Us is currently streaming on Max.
