Pedro Pascal portrays Joel Miller, and Bella Ramsey embodies Ellie, alongside appearances by Troy Baker and Ashley Johnson, the game's original voice actors. The series follows Joel's journey escorting Ellie across a post-apocalyptic America ravaged by a fungal pandemic, where Ellie holds the key to humanity's survival.
