Sitting down for a roundateable chat participating by ETIMES, Dever shared his views on the emotional weight of the series, what has been done to come in season 2, and reflected on the occasion of bringing depth and nuance to one of the most controversial characters in the franchise.
Demonstrating his trajectory and naturally how he is gravitational towards heavy content, Dever said with a laugh, “I think I was just thinking about how I didn’t do a comedy in a while – I have just done this way. It is just like this. I didn’t really want much.”
What fans could expect from her portrayal of AB, the actress was cautious, but indicated on the more emotionally complex and grounded version of the controversial character. “Again, there is not much that I can say about what they can expect,” he accepted. “But I think, because we are taking inspiration from the game and turning it into a show, it allows us to dig greatly in the context of emotion and character arc and what these people are thinking. I think more about it when you have the opportunity to make it in a show.”
Cattyin said, “For AB, I think we are just going deep. I felt as if we are really embedding ourselves in AB’s bones, and giving her a little lead-up, because in the game, obviously when she appears, we do not know who this woman is giving more reference and giving a small thing to the story.
A long fan of The Last of US Game, Dever, said that the opportunity to be a part of adaptation had come true. “I always thought that it would be a wonderful thing to bring that game into life in that way,” he shared. “When it came in the form of a TV show, I immediately saw it and just fell in love with it. Its release has been amazing since the fan Aadhaar grows up.”
He said that being part of such a culturally influential chain has been a deep rewarding experience: “It is really powerful to see that it is to come into life as an actor, and it is really good to join it. I think I think it is really grateful to be a part of such a show that is really having an impact on people. It’s a big moment in TV, I think.”
Addressing the character received after the release of the game to Abbie – and the harsh criticism tolerated by voice actress Laura Bailey – confirmed her commitment to the role, confirming the controversy.
“I am clearly aware of all that,” he said. “And I think it happens sometimes … you know, I hope people are able to separate the person from sports or show, because we are not these characters we are playing. But I clearly know that when I signed to do so.
