    To be fair I never finished it, I just got bored halfway through season 3, maybe I was just burnt out. I keep meaning to revisit it. But it is a meme at this point.

    The perfect actress for Ellie, who has 0 muscle just like her, is gonna play TLOU's Hulk, Abby. Makes no sense.

    People should’ve already known they weren’t gonna get a buff actress to play Abby, and Kaitlyn isn’t gonna get as big as Abby even with working out. Physical appearance clearly isn’t their biggest priority. No one should be surprised at this. They might even make this version of Abby more similar to the original version of Abby they had in mind for the game that wasn’t buff

    Good! A lot of heavy lifting is needed to make Abby a likable character so they need an excellent actress that can match Laura Bailey’s performance.

    it’s obvious they never gave a s--- about the game, all they need is the name and people will give it a chance.

    Looking like 50 in 02 is important for Abby’s story. TLOU2 is her revenge story.

    I agree. All I’m saying is they needed an actress good enough to make the audience really f---ing hate her and then also really make the audience like her and empathize with her after that because that’s what they do in the game. Of course it didn’t work for everybody and this won’t work for everybody either

    I’m not familiar with her work but all I hear is great things about her so I’m glad she’s playing Abby and will probably do her justice. Abby is a good character and deserves a good actress in my opinion. I might check out some of Kaitlyn’s stuff before season 2 comes out
