Wersching certainly touched the lives of many people in seemingly every project he was a part of, which certainly included the legendary status game. The Last of Us, which is currently blowing up HBO’s ratings. She memorably voiced the main survivor Tess, also filmed for character motion capture. (Tess from the TV series, whose story is slightly altered, is played by Bandaged veterinarian Anna Torv.)

Neil Druckmann co-wrote and directed the game, as well as co-created the HBO series with Craig Mazin. (He also directed episodes for him, including the groundbreaking “Bill and Frank” episode.) Druckmann dedicated himself to Chirping after hearing the bad news, saying:

Druckmann followed up that post with a full celebration of Wersching, complete with photos from The Last of Us‘ aforementioned motion capture production.

The actor seen in Druckmann’s photos is iconic voice actor Troy Baker, who has played Joel in both video games thus far, as well as Ashley Johnson, the voice of Ellie. Both voice actors will appear on the TV show in separate parts, with Merle Dandridge reprising her role as Marlene. Fans were no doubt hoping that Wersching would also have a secret role.

Baker also directed Chirping with loving words about Annie Wersching and lovely pictures.
