Casting and story details for a third entry in Naughty Dog’s action adventure series, The Last of Us Part III, have allegedly been leaked.
Twitter influencer Daniel Richtman claims to have casting and story details for The Last of Us Part III, which he shared on his Patreon. Based on his information, part of the plot will be about a group scavengers surviving on the outskirts of a post-apocalyptic city, crammed into a Victorian house that serves as their base.
According to Richtman, Naughty Dog is looking to cast the following roles in The Last of Us Part III:
- Lucas (male): affable, but develops a relationship with another young scavenger and will have a turn to show his dark side.
- Mason (male): a former solider. When Val gets put in charge, Mason must choose between his loyalty to Ezra and the house.
- Val (female): leader of the group.
- Ezra (male): wants to take the house from Val.
- Gracis (female): between the age of 18-25.
Another Twitter user by the name of ViewerAnon, who usually focuses on movie leaks, claims that motion capture and audio recording for The Last of Us Part III begins later this year, with Ellie having a role at least as big as she did in Part II.
As always, we urge our readers to take such rumors with a grain of salt. It’s all mere speculation until there is an official confirmation from the developer.
The previous entry in the series, The Last of Us Part II, is a 2020 action-adventure game developed by Naughty Dog and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment for the PlayStation 4. Taking place five years after the events of The Last of Us, the game delves into the lives of two playable characters in a post-apocalyptic United States. The intertwining story revolves around Ellie, driven by a thirst for revenge after a murder, and Abby, a soldier caught in the midst of a conflict between her militia and a religious cult.
