The heart of The Last of Us lies in its unforgettable cast of characters and the talented voice actors who bring them to life. Joel Miller, the grizzled protagonist, is voiced by Troy Baker, whose deep, weathered delivery perfectly captures the character’s traumatic past and reluctant journey toward redemption. Baker’s performance as Joel earned widespread acclaim and helped establish the character as one of gaming’s most iconic figures. You’ll hear the raw emotion in every line as Joel grapples with protecting Ellie while confronting his own demons.

Playing opposite Joel is Ellie, the young immune girl who becomes the emotional core of the story. Ashley Johnson voices Ellie with remarkable maturity and vulnerability, bringing authenticity to a character caught between childhood innocence and harsh survival. Johnson’s work as Ellie showcases her ability to convey complex emotions, from defiance to heartbreak, making the relationship between Joel and Ellie genuinely compelling. Beyond The Last of Us, Johnson is known for her role in the television series Blindspot, where she played FBI agent Tasha Zapata.

Supporting characters round out the cast beautifully. Jeffrey Pierce plays Tommy, Joel’s brother, providing a crucial connection to Joel’s past and offering moments of levity amid the darkness. Merle Dandridge voices Marlene, the Firefly leader whose moral convictions drive much of the game’s central conflict. Her performance captures the complexity of a woman trying to save humanity at any cost.

The voice acting throughout The Last of Us elevates the entire experience, transforming what could have been a standard survival game into an emotionally resonant masterpiece. If you’re curious about the full voice cast and want to discover which actors brought all these characters to life, diving into the complete credits reveals a talented ensemble that helped make this game unforgettable.
