Smart move. To that point, Merle Dandridge, who played Marlene in the video game, reprised her role in the first season.
Speaking about The Last of Us Part II, Druckmann told GQ, “Some of the stuff I’m most excited for [in Part 2] are the changes we’ve discussed and seeing the story come to life again in this other version. And I think it’s exciting because it leans into those feelings you had from the game, really heavily, in a new way.” The creators have revealed that there will be more than one season to cover the storyline in The Last of Us Part II.
