A new report by Variety has come to light, revealing six new cast members set to appear in The Last of Us Season 2.

While we are unaware of the roles some of them will play, the report has mentioned details regarding some of them.

According to the report, Joe Pantoliano will appear in the role of Eugene, a minor character in the Last of Us Part 2 game who is only mentioned in running by Ellie and Dina when they come across a lab where he used to stash his supply of cannabis. In the game, the only time we see Eugene is through a photograph, and the series will explore this character in further detail, as confirmed by the TV show creators Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann.

Robert John Burke will also take up a character from the game called Seth. Just like Pantoliano’s character, Seth is also a minor character who runs a bar in the Wyoming Community where Joe and Ellie find shelter in the fist season. Noah Lamanna will appear as Kat, another minor character who dated Ellie between the events of The Last of Us Season 1 and 2.

Alanna Ubach will appear as Hanrahan, Ben Ahlers as Burton, and Hettienne Park will play Elise Park, all of whom are original characters made for the series.
