The series “takes place 20 years after modern civilization has been destroyed by a deadly virus. Joel (Pedro Pascal), a hardened survivor, is hired to smuggle Ellie (Bella Ramsey), a 14-year-old girl, out of an oppressive quarantine zone to the Fireflies, a cure-searching organization. What starts as a small job soon becomes a brutal, heartbreaking journey, as they both must traverse across the U.S. and depend on each other for survival.”

Storm will guest star as Riley Abel, “an orphaned girl growing up in post-apocalyptic Boston.” In “The Last of Us: Left Behind,” she accompanies and survives with best friend Ellie before she meets Joel.

The Last of Us has quite the cast, which also includes Nick Offerman, Nico Parker, Gabriel Luna, Jeffrey Pierce, Murray Bartlett and Merle Dandrige.
