The Last of Us Episode 8 Cast [When We Are in Need]

In the seventh episode, “Left Behind, “Ellie and Joel have abandoned Tommy (Gabriel Luna) in the safe haven of Jackson, Wyoming, and are now searching a university in Colorado for the Fireflies, the final known location of the revolutionary faction’s laboratory. Thereafter, the two are ambushed by a band of raiders, and Joel is seriously injured. In the seventh episode, Ellie takes Joel to a hidden garage in an unassuming residential area to try to nurse him back to health. Ellie’s emotional and terrifying trip down memory lane led to a desperate attempt to save Joel. We all know what happened to Riley, and she’s doing everything she can to hold on to this one. There are only two episodes left of the first season of The Last of Us, and based on how things have been going so far, viewers should expect a lot of bloodshed and sobs. Video game followers are probably waiting with bated breath for the climactic events that will occur in the game’s last two episodes. When We Are in Need,” Episode 8, will feature yet another slew of new characters.  Check out tvacute.com‘s full character and cast breakdown to learn:

The Last of Us Episode 8 Guest Cast

Scott Shepherd as David

Co-creator Neil Druckmann has released a new graphic suggesting David (Scott Shepherd) will meet a fiery end. Those who have played the video game series The Last of Us will recognize David as a major opponent during the game’s winter season. In The Last of Us episode 8, David is preaching to the congregation while carrying what looks like a Bible. Behind the leader hangs a banner with a biblical saying, alluding to his potential new duty as a preacher. It’s true that David played a significant part in the game’s Winter chapter, but his newfound status as a religious leader is exclusive to HBO’s adaptation. Someone who has figured out how to survive in their own unique way, albeit a quite unpleasant one.

Troy Baker as James

It’s worth noting that Troy Baker, who voices Joel in the games, also lends his voice to one of David’s group members.

Already, I’m desperate for The Last of Us Season 2 to arrive. Check out the “When We Are in Need” trailer below.

Episode 8 of The Last of Us’ first season, titled “When We Are in Need,” aired on HBO. Ali Abbasi served as the episode’s director, and series creator Craig Mazin wrote the episode. On March 5, 2023, HBO will telecast the episode.
