Guess who joins the cast of “The Last of Us” season 2? Good old Joey pants, or, more formally, Joe Pantoliano.
In an interview VarietyShowrunners Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann Exclusively dream that pantoliano is Joining the cast of the massively successful show’s sophomore season as eugene, a charater that’s only briefly seen in the video game (specificly, when the in-game characters Ellie and His “abandoned cannabis den” – and in the series, Ellie and dina are Played by Bella Ramsay and Isabela Merced).
Apparently it was Mazin’s idea to make Eugene a fully expanded character, and Druckmann easily accepted. “I am excited when I see these opportunities,” he said at the point of sale. “I say to myself:” Oh, I don’t know that well Eugene! “The story we have told [in the game] was somewhat superficial. The way this character really comes to the heart of Joel [Pedro Pascal] and Ellie and their relationship. “”
Mazin, for his part, celebrated Druckmann’s desire to adapt to changes in big history in the adaptation of the video game that he, Druckmann, originally created. “You are unique in this way, and I am deeply grateful,” Mazin told Druckmann before telling the interviewer Adam B. Vary “, he includes the value of invention, reinterpretation, addition, change.” (Mazin then concluded by telling Druckmann: “You always say that you want to make everything that will make the best show”, to which Druckmann replied: “I appreciate a good brainstoral.”)
The Bill and Frank episode of The Last of Us Season 1 has expanded the story in an unexpected way
Fans of “The Last of Us” know that Eugen is not the first background character in the game who obtains a greater projector in the HBO adaptation. During the first season of the show, the episode “Long Time” presented the doomsday prepper Bill (Nick Offerman, who won an Emmy for his guest role) happy in his bunker while the Cordyce Virus takes over the world; When a foreigner named Frank (Murray Bartlett) accidentally trips in one of the trap tickets fixed for infected zombies, Bill allows him to eat something and take a shower. Then everything changes when the two share an intimate moment, and the episode finally takes place over several years, leaving Bill and Frank’s Love Story taking place in their entirety. When Frank falls ill from a terminal disease, the two choose to end their lives together … Only for Joel and Ellie to find the two men when they visit them, bringing the story of Frank and Bill in the main story.
Like the story of Bill and Frank showed us part of Joel’s story – in particular, his relationship with Tess (Anna Torv) during a previous visit to see the two men – and also linked to her connection with Ellie to the conclusion of the episode, now we also know, from Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann, which Eugene will now also prove important for the link between Joel and Ellie. So, in addition to Joe Pantoliano, someone else joins “The Last of Us” for season 2?

Dina de Merced will be joined by Jesse de Young Mazino, who happens to be Dina’s ex-friendly friend, but there is a tonne New additions to the distribution of “The Last of Us” in its second coming season.
