Another actress has been confirmed as part of the cast of The Last of Us series on HBO. Ellie’s close friend Riley, who we saw in the Left Behind DLC, will be joined in the series by Storm Reid, an actress famous for her roles in the 2018 film ‘A Wrinkle in Time’ and, more recently, the series ‘Euphoria’, confirmed Deadline.<\/p>\n

Despite not playing a major part in the main story of The Last of Us, Riley remains a crucial player in Ellie’s past. Born into a world plagued by monsters and a small human population killing each other, Ellie never had the chance to live a normal childhood, but thanks to the refuge she found in her friend Riley, she learned that not everything in life has to be bad.<\/p>\n

It is clear that we will see a lot of interaction between Storm Reid and Bella Ramsey, the actress who will play Ellie in the series. Despite being heavily inspired by Naughty Dog’s video game, the series will have some differences in its story, so even if Riley didn’t play much of a part in the 2013 game, that could change on TV.<\/p>\n
