HBO’s The Last of Us has officially cast the roles of Henry and Sam. If you don’t remember their names, they’re the two brothers from the original The Last Of Us game.

According to IGN, Henry will be played by Lamar Johnson, while his younger brother, Sam, will be portrayed by Keivonn Woodard. Besides that, they also reported that Graham Greene and Elaine Miles will guest star as Marlon and Florence, who are two brand new characters being added to the HBO series.

In the The Last Of Us game, Joel and Ellie meet Henry and Sam in Pittsburgh, where they work together to survive, where Henry was played by Brandon Scott while Sam was played by Nadji Jeter.

However, in HBO’s The Last Of Us, Joel and Ellie will meet Henry and Sam in Kansas City, and they’re described as “hiding from a revolutionary movement seeking vengeance”.

Meanwhile, the new characters, Marlon and Florence, are described as “a married couple surviving alone in the wilderness of post-apocalyptic Wyoming.”

So far, the rest of the cast includes:

• Pedro Pascal – Joel Miller
• Bella Ramsey – Ellie
• Gabriel Luna – Tommy Miller
• Merle Dandridge – Marlene
• Nico Parker – Sarah Miller
• Jeffrey Pierce – Perry
• Murray Bartlett – Frank
• Con O’ Neill – Bill

HBO’s The Last Of Us will be written and executive produced by Chernobyl creator Craig Mazin and the original game director Neil Druckmann. It will be co-produced by Sony Pictures Television, PlayStation Productions, Word Games, and Naughty Dog. No release date or window has been announced as of yet.

Druckmann has previously said that there will be changes and deviations from how it originally happened in the game. You can find the full details of his quote by heading over here.
