    HBO is ramping up for the second season of their hit series “The Last of Us” with another exciting cast announcement. Oscar nominee Jeffrey Wright (“American Fiction,” “The Batman“) has officially been cast as Isaac in the upcoming season! Isaac character he originally voiced in the video game “The Last of Us Part II.”

    Based on the Naughty Dog video game series of the same name, “The Last of Us” takes place 20 years after the fall of modern civilization. After a fungus turns much of humanity into crazed, zombie-like, creatures. 

    The story centers around Joel (Pedro Pascal), a world-weary survivor, that is hired to smuggle 14-year-old Ellie (Bella Ramsey), out of a quarantine zone. What starts as a small job soon becomes a brutal and heartbreaking journey. The pair has to traverse the dangerous remains of the US while learning to depend on each other for survival.

    The Role of Isaac

    In the games, Isaac (Wright) is the quiet but powerful leader of the Washington Liberation Front militia group. They started out seeking liberty in their newly fallen world. However, they soon became entrenched in a seemingly endless war against an unnaturally resourceful enemy. 

    Wright isn’t the first voice actor from the games to join HBO’s adaptation either. Troy Baker and Ashley Johnson (who voiced Joel and Ellie respectively in the games) had roles in season 1. Merle Dandridge also reprised her role of Marlene in the show.

    Pascal and Ramsey will return for the second season.They will be joined by Wright, Gabriel Luna, Kaitlyn Dever, Young Manzino, Isabela Merced, and Catherine O’Hara (“Beetlejuice“).

    “The Last of Us” season two is currently in production. HBO has it slated to release sometime in 2025. We’ll keep you posted on updates as they become available.
