'I Definitely Know We've Not Seen The Last of Joel,' The Last of Us Actor Says, Mentioning 'More Games'

The Last of Us video game actor Troy Baker has said there's more to come for his character Joel, potentially including "more games." Baker, who played Joel in Naughty Dog's The Last of Us and its sequel, made the remark while discussing the character's impact with fans — something an audience wider than video games has enjoyed with Pedro Pascal's portrayal of the character in HBO's The Last of Us TV series. Warning! Spoilers for The Last of Us video games and TV show follow: Alas, with Joel now dead in the games and the TV show, you'd think that would likely be it for the flannel-wearing hunk — but not so, said Baker, who likened the character to one potentially portrayed by many actors over time. "I hope that Pedro is not the last person to play Joel," Baker said, speaking to Eurogamer. "I want to see this character be proliferated and iterated on in multiple mediums, whether it be TV, film, more games, comic books. I see people that cosplay as [Joel] all the time... he made an impact." Baker's comment comes hot on the heels of remarks by franchise creator Neil Druckmann that suggested a third The Last of Us game will eventually get made — even if it is still some time off. Indeed
