Kaitlyn Dever Opens Up About Playing a Traumatized Character After Her Mother’s Death

As a devoted cinema enthusiast, eagerly anticipating the second season of “The Last of Us,” I was on tenterhooks for the episode titled ‘Through the Valley.’ This installment promised to depict Joel’s fate, and it lived up to its reputation, delivering an emotionally charged scene that left me reeling, much like Naughty Dog did in their sequel. The raw agony in Joel’s cries and Abby’s fury came together to create a truly heart-wrenching moment. For those who hadn’t played “The Last of Us Part 2,” the scene was undeniably shocking, causing them to grip their seats tightly. However, for those who had experienced the game, it felt like a painful reminder of a past trauma.
