. In the Season 2 premiere, Abby ( Kaitlyn Dever ) promises to kill Joel ( Pedro Pascal ) after his hospital massacre of the Fireflies. The show’s cocreator Craig Mazin spoke out amid speculation about the characters.
“Anybody who has a central role in a story and drives a central relationship of the story will always permeate everything,” he said on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, when asked about the possibility that Joel might not survive. “In a show where people are constantly appearing and dying, every death needs to matter.” “The way it matters is not what it does to us at home.
The way it matters is what it does to the people who survive it inside that story and how it drives them,” he continued. If the creators stick to the video game’s story, Joel will die. The Last of Us Part II was released in 2020, in which Abby got her revenge on Joel for the murder of her father, the Firefly surgeon he killed at the end of the first game, by beating him to death.
“We don’t get too caught up in the idea of the story as religion,” Craig Mazin also told IGN . “We just try and make the best show, but we do it with, I think, an enormous respect for the aspects of the game that work so well. Otherwise, honestly, what the f–k are we doing it for?” Find out which three actors didn’t have to audition for their Season 2 roles.
