The Last of Us Season 2 picks up five years after the events of Season 1. Joel and Ellie are now living in Jackson, but their dark past is far from over. One of the most controversial figures set to shake everything up is Abigail “Abby” Anderson.

For fans of the video game, Abby is the second playable main character in The Last of Us Part II. She is a member of the Fireflies, a group shattered by tragedy when Joel killed her father, Jerry Anderson, a doctor who played a crucial role in the Fireflies’ plans involving Ellie. Ever since, Abby has lived with a single purpose: to get revenge on Joel.

In Season 2, Abby begins to emerge as a real threat. Along with her group, she has spent years tracking Joel down. By the end of Episode 1, it appears she has finally found Jackson — Joel’s current location — marking the beginning of a major conflict that will fracture relationships and fuel an emotionally intense and brutal story.

While viewers of the show may not know much about Abby yet, the game reveals her complex nature. After exacting her revenge, Abby embarks on a new journey with a companion named Lev, helping her rediscover meaning and purpose. This makes Abby more than just an antagonist — she is a character filled with emotion, trauma, and growth.

However, the introduction of Abby in the live-action adaptation sparked controversy. Actress Kaitlyn Dever, who plays Abby, received some criticism from fans for not physically resembling the character in the game. Still, Dever is a highly regarded actress known for her standout performances in films like Booksmart and series such as Dopesick.

Abby is a divisive character — some hate her, while others understand her humanity. But one thing is certain: her presence brings a darker, deeper layer to The Last of Us universe.

With six episodes remaining, Abby’s journey is sure to become a pivotal part of the story. Whether fans are ready or not, they’re about to witness how this so-called “ruthless antagonist” challenges moral boundaries and the concept of justice in a post-apocalyptic world.
