While the bulk of Naughty Dog is either busy collecting awards or polishing off spin-off Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, it does seem like a large part of the team is also making progress on The Last of Us: Part II. And while updates on the title have been few and far between, Twitter has revealed today that Westworld actress (and Katy Perry's BFF, apparently) Shannon Woodward will star in the game.
Here's what she jubilantly wrote:
This actually doesn't come as a huge surprise, as there's already a strong Westworld connection running through The Last of Us: Part II. Indeed, late last year it was announced that writer Halley Gross had been brought on board to co-write the title alongside director Neil Druckmann. Given that Westworld is widely considered to be pretty bloody good, this can only be considered positive news.

Woah. Sony allowing Naughty Dog to pull in well regarded people in other industries can only be good for the company as a whole. It could lead to better crafted stories and better presented stories across their catalogue
Haven't watched Westworld but I loved her in raising hope can't wait to see her role in TLOU 2
Ellie's love interest confirmed?
I assume she will be Ellie's girlfriend.
Westworld is so great; this is really interesting!
She was great in raising hope. Great addition.
Also loved her in Raising Hope. This is great news
Wow, I didn't even recognize her in that photo, I had to Google her.
Westworld was about 10x better than I thought it was going to be, even after reading all of Damo's tweets - I only started watching it after it ended so I could binge watch it.
Very much looking forward to both this and Westworld season 2. I wondered which will release first? The wait for both is killing me.
I had to google her because her name was really familiar to me, even though I haven't watched Westworld.
Turns out, she was on Psych's season 1 finale ten years ago. The difference is night and day.
The real question is, how long do you reckon it takes Neil to wash his hair and beard?
@ApostateMage It's a good question to be fair.
