Pedro Pascal is clearly stoked to be a part of The Last of Us, confirming the news of his recent casting as Joel on Twitter.
Neil Druckmann, the writer and creative director of the video game who’s also co-writing the series with Craig Mazin (Chernobyl), tweeted that he was “stoked” to have Pascal board The Last of Us TV series.
Tweeting the original Deadline story about his The Last of Us casting, Pedro first posted emoji of a skull and an exploding head, suggesting that even his own mind had been blown by the announcement.
Acknowledging his new co-star, Pedro Pascal followed up his original tweet by posting another article reporting on Ramsey’s casting as Ellie.
