Pedro Pascal’s casting as Joel Miller in HBO’s The Last of Us series has fans of The Mandalorian pretty excited, but there are many Game of Thrones fans feeling disappointed that it wasn’t Nikolaj Coster-Waldau.
“I’m amped that Pedro Pascal is gonna be Joel in The Last of Us but Nikolaj Coster-Waldau better be Tommy,” said one fan.
As perhaps the frontrunner with a lot of fans of The Last of Us to play the part in the HBO series, Coster-Waldau had also been featured in a variety of fan art imagining him as Joel Miller.
Prior to the recent casting news, many fans were campaigning for Nikolaj Coster-Waldau to land the role of Joel.
