Last Of Us 2 Actor Teases New Mo Cap Project - Get2Gaming

Last Of Us fans pay attention here, as there’s some potentially interesting news going on. Derek Phillips, the actor who played Abby’s dad in The Last Of Us Part 2, has revealed he is working on a new motion capture project. Interesting, huh?

Posting on his Instagram yesterday, the actor revealed he is “Back in my sexy mocap tights” and that he “can’t wait to share what he’s working on with all of you! It’s gonna be epic!!!!”

Previously, Phillips has done motion capture not only for surgeon Jerry Anderson in The Last Of Us Part 2, but also for Lieutenant Wade Jackson in Call of Duty Vanguard. Additionally, he has worked on a number of other famous titles such as Dishonored, Aliens: Colonial Marines, Battlefield Hardline, Fallout 4, Rise of the Tomb Raider and The Last of Us. As such, this doesn’t reveal too much about the possibility of The Last Of Us Part 3, however we can still be hopeful, can’t we?

In other news, it was recently revealed that the PS5 remake of the original The Last of Us is almost here, and could find itself on the supermarket shelves in the latter stages of 2022. Despite it not being officially announced yet,  industry insider Tom Henderson believes it’s only a matter of time before Sony does so.

With series creator Naughty Dog supposedly leading the remake, the co-president Neil Druckmann said in January that the studio was “dying to share” with fans “the multiple game projects” it’s working on. This will likely include the studios “first standalone multiplayer game”, which could have negative effects on the Last Of Us Part 2’s supposed online mode.
