The role of Manny will be recast for the upcoming third season of HBO's hit series "The Last of Us". Danny Ramirez, who joined the cast in Season 2, was forced to exit the series due to scheduling conflicts. His character, Manny, was described as "a loyal soldier whose sunny outlook belies the pain of old wounds and a fear that he will fail his friends when they need him most". A former member of the Fireflies, a rebel militia, Manny is friends with Abby (Kaitlyn Dever) and helped her seek revenge on Joel (Pedro Pascal) for the massacre he carried out on the Firefly hospital to save Ellie (Bella Ramsay).
Ramirez is best known for playing Joaquin Torres/Falcon in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He has appeared in the 2021 series "The Falcon and the Winter Soldier", the 2025 film "Captain America: Brave New World", and is set to star in next year's "Avengers: Doomsday". He will also appear in the upcoming Jean-Michel Basquiat biopic "Samo Lives".
"The Last of Us" started 20 years after modern civilization has been destroyed, and followed Joel, a hardened survivor, who is hired to smuggle Ellie, a 14-year-old girl, out of an oppressive quarantine zone. What starts as a small job soon becomes a brutal, heartbreaking journey, as they both must traverse the U.S. and depend on each other for survival. Season 2 took place five years later, as Joel and Ellie are drawn into conflict with each other and a world even more dangerous and unpredictable than the one they left behind.
The series is based on the video game of the same name by Neil Druckmann, who co-created the TV show with Craig Mazin ("Chernobyl"). Both Druckmann and Mazin served as writers and directors on Season 2. Druckman exited his creative roles ahead of Season 3 to focus on other projects.
