The Last of Us director explains how terrifying Bloater was brought to life<\/a><\/strong><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>
\u201cIt\u2019s awful. But in order for them to go on, they\u2019ve got to overcome the most extraordinary obstacles and I think if we let him live, we\u2019d be going against that. So that\u2019s why we decided, I\u2019m afraid, Henry had to die.\u201d<\/p>\n
Speaking to RadioTimes.com<\/strong> and other press about the emotional scene, actor Johnson explained: \u201cThat was a tough day. We shot that scene for most of the day, so it was just very emotionally draining as well.<\/p>
\u201cKeivonn and I, we built such a great relationship building up to that point so to see him like that was really tough. Jeremy and I, we were at the monitor watching the Sam and Ellie scene together and we both had tears in our eyes. Ultimately, what Henry was going through \u2013 if I was going to say one word, I would just say shock.\u201d<\/p>\n
He added: \u201cOf course I wish that they were to survive, because what would that look in the next episode? What would that look like with Joel and Ellie and Sam and Henry? What would the dynamic be able to build into?\u201d<\/p>\n
However, he continued: \u201cWith the way that it ended, I\u2019m OK with it. Because I think, even though it was very traumatic, I think ultimately, it was out of love. So I\u2019m OK with that.\u201d<\/p>
