There, he also plays a begrudging father figure who is charged with looking after a child with special abilities, so you cannot say that he lacks experience in this field.īella Ramsey played the defiant Lyanna Mormont in 'Game of Thrones'. However, his biggest leading role to date is as the titular bounty hunter in Disney's The Mandalorian. You will no-doubt recognize this exceedingly charismatic performer from things like Kingsman 2, Wonder Woman 1984, and Game of Thrones (where he came to a memorably gruesome end in Season 4). In the HBO version, Joel will be played by none other than Pedro Pascal. He is a complicated and deeply flawed individual, but one who is motivated by relatable impulses. Yet despite his frequent displays of selfishness and even abject cruelty, fans cannot help but empathize with this morally dubious smuggle.
He also does some rather deplorable things over the course of the first The Last of Us, in order to protect both himself and the ones he loves. Joel is not your typical video-game protagonist, seeing as he is middle-aged and hardly in peak physical condition when you meet him (characters frequently call him 'Old Man').
