Laura Bailey is one of those prolific videogame actors whose voice you've probably heard whether or not you've heard her name. A few of Bailey's recent credits include Marvel Rivals, World of Warcraft: The War Within, and Spider-Man 2. For that reason, Naughty Dog studio head Neil Druckmann says the developer almost didn't cast Bailey as Abby in The Last of Us Part 2, but a single moment from her audition changed his mind
Druckmann mentioned the casting process in a talk with Santa Monica Studio creative director Cory Barlog (God of War) on Wednesday at the D.I.C.E. Summit, an annual industry get-together put on by The Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences.
