whos abby

[queenursula]

Hard to explain without spoiling stuff.

[fernandocolunga]

dammit, but thanks for the heads up

is she a major character?

[queenursula]

Yes she is.

The official description from HBO is “a skilled soldier whose black-and-white view of the world is challenged as she seeks vengeance for those she loved”.

One of my favorite characters ever, this is great casting.

House of the Dragon this summer will help me get my "I will defend this woman's rights and her wrongs" skills practice.

I hope they keep the physicality of Abby true to game. Loved the representation of a strong muscular woman.

[crazylike_afox]

The difference playing it was so fun too. Ellie's stealth approach vs Abby's more direct one.

[archersangel]

Probably not. It will probably be like Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, where she'll "tone up" & has a bit of muscle definition in the arms, but that's it.

I love her. She’s so talented.

I hope the internet is kind to her. What the character model and voice actress for Abby had to deal w/ was crazy

[wwgrogudo]

And Laura Bailey is a damned icon and they STILL treated her like that.

[azaelers]

[wwgrogudo]

Had to look JP up but yes, the same LB. ❤️

[jontargaryen]

Praying for her.

[deerlike]

Ooh, she was so good in Unbelievable, absolutely held her own against Toni Colette.

[kimda]

Oooh I loved her in that! I had no idea this was her!!!

[better2beloved]

Robbed of an Emmy for that and Dopesick!

[ambermoons]

Honestly all three lead women were incredible! I want to see Meritt and Toni work together again!
