TheLastOfUs star, Jeffrey Pierce, reveals Oscar-winner Mahershala Ali was almost cast as Joel in the series.
HBO’s The Last of Us has been referred to across many corners as the golden standard for video game adaptations. The series has, in its seven episodes so far, awed and entertained audiences to brilliant effect. However, perhaps it could have been all different, at least regarding the role of Joel which is exceptionally portrayed by Pedro Pascal. According to series star, Jeffrey Pierce, the role could have been given to someone else.
In the show’s latest episode, "Left Behind", we saw that after his encounter with raiders at Colorado University, Joel was badly wounded and struggling to hang on. Pascal’s depiction of the character as a continually grieving father who is scared of opening his heart to another “dependent” in Ellie has drawn much acclaim. However, according to Pierce who also stared as Perry in the series, we could have had another familiar face playing Joel.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY While we can agree that Pascal has turned out to be a solid choice for the Naughty Dog adaptation, Mahershala Ali would also not have been a bad choice either. An Oscar winner, Ali would certainly have brought his A-game on set as seen in his previous works.
