‘The Last Of Us’ casts Kaitlyn Dever as fan-favourite Abby

Adam B. Vary Senior Entertainment Writer If there’s an Avengers of television directors, “The Last of Us” just assembled it.

EXCLUSIVE: Mark Mylod, coming off his Outstanding Drama Directing Emmy win for HBO’s Succession, is headed to another HBO drama series tipped to succeed Succession as an Emmy juggernaut, The Last Of Us.

The sling was off as The Last of Us star Pedro Pascal made his way through the red carpet for the Sundance Film Festival premiere of his movie Freaky Tales on Thursday.

Pedro Pascal‘s arm sling has been the subject of a lot of online discourse lately among The Last of Us fans.

While The Last Of Us‘ main focus is Joel (Pedro Pascal) and Ellie’s (Bella Ramsey) journey through post-apocalyptic America, the characters they meet along the way leave a major impression as evident by the seven Guest Actor/Actress In a Drama series Emmy nominations for the video game adaptation and wins in both fields for Nick Offerman and Storm Reid.

Succession and The Bear both scored major success with six wins during the Primetime Emmy Awards ceremony, closely followed by Beef which received five on-stage awards. Hollywood stars descended at the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles for the annual awards on Monday, 15 January, which were pushed back from September due to the US actors' and writers' strikes, to celebrate the best in television.

Emmy Awards for the 2022-2023 TV season had to overcome the challenge of seeming like a complete afterthought — and for the most part it succeeded. The ceremony for the 75th Emmys was designed as a tribute to the medium, and featured reunions from shows such as “All in the Family,” “The Sopranos,” “Martin” and “Grey’s Anatomy,” the last of which featured the beloved, departed cast members Katherine Heigl and Justin Chambers, alongside OG stars Ellen Pompeo, Chandra Wilson and James Pickens Jr.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Young Mazino spoke to Variety on the Emmys red carpet about landing a highly-coveted role in HBO’s “The Last of Us” Season 2. The network announced earlier this month the “Beef” breakout is set to star in the new season as Jesse, said to be “a pillar of his community who puts everyone else’s needs before his own, sometimes at terrible cost.” He joins fellow newcomers Isabela Merced and Kaitlyn Dever opposite returning favorites Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey. Mazino says he’s set to start filming the show in two weeks.
