In February 2021, we wrote about a crazy rumor that Mahershala Ali could play Joel in The Last of Us. It turned out that this was not a rumor at all.
Jeffrey Pierce, Tommy in the games Naughty Dog and Perry in the series talked about the possible participation of the actor. According to him, Mahershala Ali was considered Joel even before the negotiations with Pedro Pascal (Pedro Pascal).
They discussed the role of Joel with Mahershala Ali, and this is a clear hint that I won’t be playing Tommy. When they chose Pedro, I realized that this is definitely not going to happen.
Mahershala Ali is best known for the films Green Book and Moonlight and the third season of True Detective. In the future, the actor will play Blade in Marvel’s new solo album. Modders have already stripped down Atomic Heart’s twin ballerinas
