Скачать или смотреть Pedro Pascal REACTION to being cast as Joel in THE LAST OF US

Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey

Pedro Pascal’s portrayal of Joel in The Last of Us has received widespread acclaim, both from fans of the original video game and from those new to the story. Stepping into a role so iconic and emotionally complex was no easy task, especially given the deep attachment many players had to the character voiced by Troy Baker in the game. However, Pascal manages to honour the original while making the character uniquely his own, bringing a depth of emotional resonance that resonates powerfully on screen.

One of Pascal’s greatest strengths in the role is his ability to convey Joel’s internal conflict without relying heavily on dialogue. Through subtle facial expressions, body language, and measured silences, Pascal communicates the weight of Joel’s past traumas—particularly the devastating loss of his daughter, Sarah. This quiet grief is a constant undercurrent in his interactions, colouring his early detachment and eventual emotional connection with Ellie. Rather than playing Joel as a hardened, emotionless survivor, Pascal leans into the vulnerability beneath the surface, giving the character a haunting realism.

His chemistry with Bella Ramsey, who plays Ellie, is central to the show’s success. Their dynamic evolves gradually, reflecting the trust and affection that grow between them over time. Pascal balances Joel’s instinct to protect with his fear of loss, creating a nuanced depiction of love and its costs in a post-apocalyptic world. This relationship becomes the emotional heart of the series, and Pascal ensures that Joel’s actions—however morally ambiguous—feel grounded in genuine human emotion.
