Catherine O'Hara, renowned for her performances in 'Schitt's Creek' and 'Home Alone', has been confirmed to join the cast of HBO's hit series, 'The Last of Us', for the upcoming second season.

This exciting casting news comes as several other actors have been announced for the new season including Kaitlyn Dever as Abby, Young Mazino as Jesse, and Isabela Merced as Dina. HBO's 'The Last of Us' is expected to release its second season in 2025, and fans are eagerly waiting for more updates and confirmations regarding the expanding cast and the directors involved in this highly anticipated continuation of the series.

Who has been cast in the second season of HBO's 'The Last of Us'?

Catherine O'Hara is set to star in the second season of HBO's 'The Last of Us' alongside Kaitlyn Dever, Young Mazino, and Isabela Merced. The second season is scheduled to air in 2025, with O'Hara playing an as-yet-undisclosed character for a three-episode arc.

'The Last of Us', originally a highly acclaimed video game developed by Naughty Dog and published by Sony Computer Entertainment, first released for the PlayStation 3 in 2013. The game was praised for its compelling narrative, deep character development, and engaging gameplay. It has since become a staple in the storytelling aspect of modern video games, gaining a large fan base and receiving numerous awards. The success of the game prompted a remastered version for PlayStation 4 and eventually a sequel, 'The Last of Us Part II', which continued the story of the protagonists, Joel and Ellie. The franchise's transition to a television series by HBO retains the game's post-apocalyptic setting and characters, further expanding its reach and influence in popular culture.
