Award-winning actress Catherine O’Hara, known for her role in “Beetlejuice,” is set to grace the screens of HBO’s highly anticipated second season of “The Last of Us.”
According to Variety, O’Hara has been confirmed to star in the upcoming installment of the post-apocalyptic drama. Her involvement in the series follows the recent announcements of major cast additions, including Kaitlyn Dever as Abby and Isabela Merced as Dina. However, details about O’Hara’s character remain tightly guarded as of now.
Fans of “The Last of Us” have already begun speculating about O’Hara’s potential role. Given that the second season will draw inspiration from the acclaimed video game “The Last of Us Part II,” speculations suggest that O’Hara could possibly portray the enigmatic leader of the Seraphites, an adversarial faction introduced in the game.
In “The Last of Us Part II,” the Seraphites, also known as the Scars, uphold a belief system that views the Cordyceps infection as divine retribution for humanity’s transgressions. With O’Hara’s resemblance to the in-game character depicted as an older woman with shoulder-length hair, fans are intrigued by the possibility of her embodying this significant role.
HBO’s adaptation of “The Last of Us” has previously expanded the narrative beyond the confines of the video game, providing insights into various perspectives. As the series delves deeper into the conflicts between factions like the Seraphites and the Washington Liberation Front (WLF), it aims to offer viewers a comprehensive understanding of the world depicted in the game.
With the second season set to continue exploring these intricate storylines, O’Hara’s character is expected to play a pivotal role in shaping the narrative trajectory. While specifics remain shrouded in mystery, anticipation is high for her contribution to the acclaimed series.
“The Last of Us” season two is slated to premiere on HBO and HBO Max in 2025, with reports suggesting a total of seven episodes for the upcoming season.
