Before The Last of Us, Devs Proved That Nick Offerman Could Go Dark

The Last of Us will hopefully bring a new level of prestige to video game adaptations, which will surely erase the memories of Assassin’s Creed, Max Payne, Need for Speed, and Doom from everyone’s head. The show’s all-star cast includes a plethora of acclaimed dramatic actors, including Pedro Pascal, Anna Torve, Gabriel Luna, Murray Bartlett, Melanie Lynskey, and Game of Thrones’ breakout star Bella Ramsay. However, one name that might raise a few eyebrows is Nick Offerman, who is best known for his hilariously endearing role as Ron Swanson in Parks and Recreation. However, Offerman is a far more seasoned dramatic actor than some of his may realize. Alex Garland’s criminally underrated science fiction miniseries Devs signified that Offerman could be enigmatic, terrifying, and heartbreaking at the same time.
