I was like, 'Man, I doubt you remember this, but you and I were doing a movie.' He was doing No Country, and I was doing a western. "I remember being at LAX and Josh Brolin was there, we were in the lounge together, and I walked up. and openly pitched him on taking the role? But did you know that Baker himself once met Brolin. So who, in Baker's opinion, could stretch Joel to new levels? Many fans have openly sought for Josh Brolin to play him in an eventual adaptation, to the point where Brolin himself answered a Reddit AMA question about it (rather sardonically).
Sorry, Baker, the clown prince of crime wins again. But at least 14 people have played the Joker.
Quick fact check: 12 people have walked on the moon. More people have walked on the moon than have played the Joker. I mean, Jesus, how many people have played Batman terribly and amazingly? The Joker, same thing. "Dude, I am no stranger to stepping into pre-existing roles. What I'm excited about is finding someone that can give me a completely different side of Joel, and show me how far that character can stretch."īaker went on to sympathize with any actor hired to take on the part, given that his extensive career has included stepping into many iconic roles: That was my job, was to move that character as far forward as I could. I have taken Joel as far as I can take it. And while most of us would much rather see Baker himself play the role for TV, Baker himself feels as though he's given the role everything he possibly could: Now that we know the world of The Last of Us is moving to HBO as a show under Chernobyl showrunner Craig Mazin's vision, one big question remains: Who could take these characters on in a live-action space?Ĭollider's very own Dorian Parks and Dennis Tzeng recently sat down with voice actor extraordinaire Baker as part of the Collider Games Podcast, and got to ask him who he'd like to see take on his role of Joel should he show up in the series. What makes it stick in my brain are the incredible characters - especially Ellie and Joel - and the incredible performances - especially from Ashley Johnson and Troy Baker. But that's not what makes the franchise stick in my brain. The Last of Usand The Last of Us Part II are video games stuffed with action, gunfire, and fungal zombies that make click clack noises to signal they're about to eat you.
