As a gamer with over two decades under my belt, I’ve seen it all – from pixelated beginnings to lifelike realism. The Last of Us has always been a standout, and its second season is no exception. Kaitlyn Dever stepping into Abby Anderson’s boots is an audacious move that I can’t help but admire.
Actress Kaitlyn Dever will portray Abby Anderson, a character disliked since The Last of Us 2, in HBO’s second season of The Last of Us live-action series. Unfortunately, some fans have expressed such intense dislike for her character that it has caused concern on set, as revealed by fellow cast member Isabela Merced. In an interview on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, Merced stated to Variety that Dever required additional security while filming due to individuals who “genuinely despise” Abby, despite the fact that she is a fictional character.
In Season 2 of The Last of Us, the casting choice for the antagonist, played by Dever, has frequently faced criticism since its announcement, as fans are accustomed to a particular appearance for the character and often express their disapproval over Dever’s lack of muscularity excessively. This negativity on set led to increased security measures for the new cast member. Given that Abby is a character who has never had a significant fanbase or advocates, it’s not surprising that being in this situation could be challenging.
“What confuses me is the showrunner and creator of the video game, they work together to make this, so if you like what the guy made and he’s making more of it, why are you mad? I’m too opinionated to be on Twitter. I see this stuff on Twitter, and it makes me want to go Cardi B on them,” Merced continued. “Kaitlyn is such a cool person who does not get phased by things. She really had her head in the right place, and also is going through a lot personally right now. It’s devastating to see, but also give her the damn Emmy, honestly. I’m so excited for people to see how incredibly well Bella and Kaitlyn did on this.”
In Season 2, Dever and Merced make their debuts alongside other new cast members headed by Bella Ramsey and Pedro Pascal, joined by Ariela Barer, Catherine O’Hara, Danny Ramirez, Jeffrey Wright, Tati Gabrielle, Young Mazino, and Spencer Lord. The second season of “The Last of Us” is scheduled to air in 2025.
