Kaitlyn Dever plays Abby in Season 2 of HBO's The Last of Us, a character that sparked significant debate when the game released. While aware of the discussions surrounding her character, Dever emphasized the importance of concentrating on her performance rather than online reactions. She noted that showrunners Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann showed confidence in her portrayal, which bolstered her own self-assurance. The season will adapt parts of The Last of Us: Part II, setting the stage for further narrative exploration in future episodes.
"Obviously, I know about the conversation surrounding Abby, obviously, but in order to do my job in the best way possible, I had to just be aware of it but then just not put all my focus on it."
"It was nice that they had a lot of confidence in me taking on this role. And so, then I had a lot of confidence in myself moving forward, in taking on this kind of role."
