One of the original characters that appeared in the series of The Last of Us was Kathleeninterpreted by Melanie Lynskeywho had the responsibility of giving life to the leader of the resistance in Kansas and sought revenge for the death of his brother, after being assassinated by FEDRA after what Henry Burrell will give it away
The character shone in the small arc where we were able to meet the Burrell brothers, acting as an antagonist, transforming the resistance into a radical group, contradicting the ideals of his brother Michael.
And although we know what her fate was, Lynskey seems to have been delighted with her role, as she pointed out in an interview with Variety that she would love to be able to star in a spin-off where we learn about her rise to power after Michael’s death. An idea that seems not to have squared with a certain sector of ‘fans’, who were quick to lash out at the actress on social media, forcing Lynskey to clarify what she said.

«So please fanboys can you stop the angry tweeting now. I’m a very tired mom happily trying to answer questions in my most stressful setting, which is a crowded red carpet event.» posted as a message Lynskey.
She is not the only actress from the HBO show to want to have her own spin-off. Merle Dandridge, who played “Marlene” in both the video game and the live-action adaptation, said that she would be delighted to continue playing the character in a kind of prequel to see her work as leader of the Fireflies up close. .
