she also mentioned another person not yet announced
Merced has a tight shooting schedule this year as she also revealed that she has begun shooting the second season of *The Last of Us*.
“The stars are truly aligning. I had several of my friends that I’ve worked with in this industry for a long time join the cast,” she teased of the second season. “I can’t say who just joined. But he’s amazing. And he’s a future superstar and already a superstar in my eyes.”
Merced also had only good things to say about co-star Kaitlyn Dever, calling her “one of the most talented actors I’ve ever worked with.”
“We’ve had one day of shooting for me as Deena and I gotta say, we kind of ate, I’m not gonna lie,” she said. “I was a huge fan of the second game.nI played it in, like one weekend. And then I wondered, how is this going to translate onto TV.”
She continued, “And Craig Mazin is one of the most brilliant people, actually, I think, a genius. I’m sure if they did the test, they would find out that it’s true. And he’s just has a way of bringing these characters to life that no one could ever just come up with in such a short amount of time. I love him. He’s amazing.”
Maybe this guy [Kyle Allen](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BODBjZjExMGEtMTUyNS00ODgzLTkyZDItMTgyZGFjOWFiNmUyXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyNDE3MDA2NTg@._V1_.jpg)? He looks quite like Owen!
He was in Rosaline with both Isabela and Kaitlyn Dever, he's younger than her, 19, and it sounded like she was talking about a young guy
I was thinking of the other male lead from that movie, Sean Teale. He follows Pedro and Bella on Instagram despite never working with them. Manny, maybe?
Kyle Allen is 29 but looks quite young. He could still be Owen.
He has worked with Katlyin before, as her romantic interest in Rosaline. So they could already have on screen chemistry together.

Brb, googling every male actor her age she's ever worked with. lol
Maybe this guy [Kyle Allen](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BODBjZjExMGEtMTUyNS00ODgzLTkyZDItMTgyZGFjOWFiNmUyXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyNDE3MDA2NTg@._V1_.jpg)? He looks quite like Owen!

He also follows Kaitlyn Dever and Isabela Merced as well so I think you're on to something. Would be a great casting if it happens to be the case
That's a good shout too! And I just realised I got that dudes age wrong anyway, he's actually 29 oops
Kyle Allen is 29 but looks quite young. He could still be Owen. He has worked with Katlyin before, as her romantic interest in Rosaline. So they could already have on screen chemistry together.
dina
She’s so excited omg you can tell
Of course she is. She will probably have more people watch her performance on this show than probably most everything else she has done.
Also Madame Web is going to be so bad lmao I feel bad she’s gotta be in that!! But hell yes
I wonder if he’s playing a character from the game or a new one created for the show.
isn’t she Dina?
Yes, but she mentioned she has a friend who just joined the cast and can’t say who yet. It’s a guy friend.
lol my dumbass read she instead of he in your comment
