The Last of Us is certainly taking its time. Season 1 fleshed out the already cinematic video game by introducing new villains and giving minor side characters heartwrenching tales of their own. A Season 2 renewal was quick to follow, and fans soon learned that showrunners Neil Druckmann and Craig Mazin would take multiple seasons to adapt the second game, The Last of Us Part II.
Even more breathing room means even more story, and Variety recently reported on casting announcements that revealed a slew of new and expanded characters. We can’t speculate on how the former will play into the story, but Alanna Ubach is playing a character named Hanrahan, Ben Ahlers is playing Burton, and Hettienne Park is playing Elise Park. Meanwhile, Robert John Burke is playing Seth, who gamers know as the bartender in the Jackson community.
