Laura Bailey, a prolific voice actress who appeared in The Last of Us Part II as Abby, has said she would “definitely” return for another go-around as the character in a future experience. Speaking to Comic Book Movie, Bailey said she would be keen to come back, despite all the controversy and drama about her character.
“I would definitely go back to her,” she said. “I know there was a lot of drama and response to her character, but it was one of the most influential roles I’ve had in my life. I would 100% go back to play more Abby if the opportunity came up.”
The character Abby was one of the most contentious and discussed from The Last of Us Part II. Bailey received death threats over the role, and she commented on the hate in an interview with Game Informer in December 2020. “I knew that I was going to get some hate. I didn’t anticipate the extent,” Bailey said.
