“Dina is warm, brilliant, wild, funny, moral, dangerous and instantly lovable,' reads a quote provided by co-creators Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann. In the games, Dina is Ellie's partner who she met in Jackson and who accompanies her on her journey in the game, though she is opposed to Ellie's deep need for vengeance. According to an official announcement, Merced will join Dever, Pedro Pascal as Joel, Bella Ramsey as Ellie, and the rest of the cast for the second season, which will follow the events of The Last of Us: Part Two.
