Today, we are recasting The Last Of Us characters but even better. Better than the original series. As much as I like to admit... I do like Pedro Pascal as Joel Miller and Bella Ramsey as Ellie Williams even though they don't look like the characters. It's their performances that triumph in. But if we were to replace these actors, we want someone who could improve a little bit more of their aspects. And if we're about to make the series better than the original one, we want something to be like The Walking Dead, but at a different angle. And this main idea is eventually about how Joel and Ellie are facing through times at the good post-apocalyptic. And ngl, although Pedro does look kind of like the part, we could get someone to bring a little bit more weight to that. I also like Bella Ramsey as well as other roles where she played in and has that level of energy that Ellie has as well with that emotion, even though she's 18. Although we can improve more on the character, if we wanted an actress who starts at 14 years of age the same as Ellie, we need someone who could pull off that emotion much like Bella Ramsey but different. Someone with that rough edge around. So enough talk, let's recast The Last Of Us.
