HBO’s The Last of Us casts original Tommy actor but not as Tommy

Jeffrey Pierce, the actor behind the voice of Tommy in The Last of Us video game series, has been cast in HBO’s upcoming Last of Us TV show – but not as Tommy.

Earlier this year, Gabriel Luna was cast as Tommy, the main character Joel’s brother. Now, Pierce has instead been cast as Perry, a rebel in a quarantine zone.

Murray Bartlett and Con O’Neil have also been cast in the series. Bartlett will play Frank while O’Neil will play Bill. Deadline described the characters as “two post-pandemic survivalists living alone in their own isolated town”.
