'The Last of Us' HBO Series (NO GAME SPOILERS!) | Season 2 Coming 2025 (7 Episodes) | Season 2 Official Teaser Released

[Zero]

Yall cant tell me her face doesnt look detachable. Underdeveloped looking ass broad

 

[CreepyMcCreeperson]

What’s the point of the video game? Do you just run, and fight off zombies?

Yeah she's the biggest problem w the show imo.

- the biracial daughter threw me off, not sure why, it wasn’t like it was poor acting or anything….but they gotta chill with forcing that shyt. And it seems likes it’s always a biracial black/white girl.

It threw you off? Why is that?


And what's being forced?


Black people shouldn't get as many acting roles as possible in Hollywood?


And she was definitely one of the best actors on the show. Thandiwe's genes served her well.

That little Sarah girl was the best actress/actor on the damn show last night and nikkas asking why was she there


Wish she would’ve been the main little girl to get all the gamer bros and militants upset

her performance was fire

This.

Thandiwe's daughter crushed her performance.

And the criticism is odd. Because they'd rather the role be played by a cacette instead?

You think the casting call description just included everybody huh? No specificities. Nothing intentional.

A younger Marsai Martin could’ve gotten it, if she just acted better huh

I have no idea, but I don't see why not. Obviously they wanted a young looking woman, who could pass for the daughter of a mid-30ish white/latino(?) man. **edit** Also, they probably wanted someone who looked and seemed very delicate and sweet to contrast Ellie's brassy and vulgar personality.

Let's be reality, there's no objectively good reason why Joel's daughter has to look identical to the video game version of her. They never go into much detail about their relationship -- for all we know she could be his adopted daughter or a step daughter. The only reason why one might not want to make her brown skinned is to appease types and gamer gaters.

Neither of us were involved with casting, so neither of us can know for sure.

watched last night becuase HBO pushed it. Don’t think I’m really interested, added to my stuff, might binge it during the summer lull in tv

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

She got introduced to that old man strength quick

Joel strong AF in the games. He stay knocking out everything

Yo he tossed the shyt out of Ellie into that damn wall shyt look like it hurt her for real

Agree that in this particular episode, she was one of the best actors.


However, I can’t help but notice the intentionality of always skewing towards the Zendaya, Zazie Beats type of biracial people in regards to black actresses.

Not saying they don’t deserve their roles and shyt. But there seems to be an obvious push for them.

To your point about the adoptive possibility….a darker skinned young actress with tighter curls…..(not the super bouncy shyt they always do with the Zendaya’s) could’ve looked very sweet and delicate to contrast Ellie.

Hmm... you're not wrong.

 

[klientel]

Yeah she's the biggest problem w the show imo.

I’m kinda used to it now, it’s not that big of a deal. It’s going to be a problem if they do part 2 though…

Visually she can’t do adult Ellie. She will look exactly the same as she does now. It will be somewhat jarring.

Spoiler

any lesbian shyt they do with her will look real , they might have to scrap the whole Dina thing. It will be awkward as fukk since she’s an adult that looks 12.

 

[DaddyFresh]

Really curious to see how they fit the entire game and dlc in 9 episodes. Some stuff probably gotta get cut

Especially since Bill and the DLC seem to be getting stand alone episodes. So 6 episodes left to tell the whole story does seem short.

 

[DaddyFresh]

Why is everyone so sure they’re going to finish the first game in 1 season?

It’s already been stated the first season will cover the entirety of the first game

 

[DaddyFresh]

Anyone else feel like the pilot was solid but not like groundbreaking? Very good, enough to keep watching, but sort of generic in how it set things up

I felt that exact way personally.

You a grown man nitpicking a teenagers girls looks on a Tv show. Embarrassing
