Kinda funny how Troy is the complete physical opposite of Joel - Blonde thin pretty boy vs a rugged big rough man - yet his voice work is is fits 100% and is emotional perfection.
Troy baker and Ashley Johnson should make more video games together. They were absolutely phenomenal in The Last Of Us. Naughty Dog couldn't have picked any better voice actors.
Troy Baker has done so much voice acting for video games, only the other day did I find out some of his more smaller parts like Logan Thackeray in GW2 for instance. What an awesome guy!
This must be the go-to guy for video game voice acting. Just look up Troy Baker on IMDB. You'll see what I mean when you see everything he's casted in.
lets take a second and think about how Troy Baker was the voice actor for the main characters for The Last Of Us and Bioshock Infinite as well. awesome.
Both amazing voice over artists.. they fit the characters amazingly well.. Troy also voiced the lead character in BioShock: Infinite.. so thats two lead males escorting female sidekicks through hostile environments that he played. I firmly believe these artists did amazing jobs and brought Joel and Ellie to life - both definitely need awards for their work.. I wouldn't be surprised if Ashley gets chosen as best female voice artist in a video game for 2013. She deserves it.
Though Troy does not look like Joel nor sound like him you can see in his facial expressions a lot of Joel. Well acted. Ashley is Ellie through and through. It's a shame she couldn't play her, were they to be a live action movie of the Last of Us made (which I hope there is, assuming it is done justice).
Yea that and Page didn't see a dime it pretty much comes down to it. The originally used picture they were going to use basically was Page, but Naughty Dogs gradually changed features to evade (I guess?) the possibility or problems with likeness without compensation.
These ARE the actual actors. They do the voices and the physical movements that are recorded and used as the in-game character's animations. You hear them mentioning the words "Performance Capture", "Motion Capture", "Mo-cap"? Watch and LISTEN from 5:16 onwards. Troy (the guy who voices and plays the character of Joel) explains what it is and involves. If you need a visual check out an actual Performance Capture session for this game here /watch?v=aA-8c0_hcPk. It show the whole process :)
I watched a film called SUPER the other day with ellen page in it and her character reminded me of Ellie so much it's ridiculous. Her personality and looks reminded me so much of Ellie and at one point in the film she gets bored and sings or whistles to herself or something just like Ellie does lol.
I agree, they both look alot like Ellie and Joel.Ellie has just red hair but they they definitely used their faces.Troy just looks like a slimmed down and younger version of Joel for sure.
hes really texan just like joel, maybe that helped make his voice different. he also voiced booker dewitt in bioshock infinite and the default voice in SR 3 and the upcoming SR4 :D
In ever really knew Naughty dog, but now that i look at the games, i realise that they only make 80+/100 games there, and this one is obviously no exception.
Ashley's so cute
SIMP

Absolutely incredible performances! Oscar worthy in my opinion :)
Troy’s real voice actually does sound like Joel, just much less gravelly and not Southern. And Ashley’s voice is exactly the same as Ellie’s lol
Troy is also Southern lol
@@dame-e-in1258 well that probably helps then
I heard a little bit of Ellie when she said "Of course!" In the beginning
I closed my eyes to hear Joel and Ellie talking...
Same :)
same
Calvin Mungroo yeahhh, but Troy Baker sounds nothing like Joel
drmuffin1080 I agree
Ashley is beautiful. That's all I'm gonna say.
So this is Troy Baker's real voice, or is it?
almansour omar yes dammit
WADDA YOU THINK, BATS???????
Troy is a legend. I hope Johnson does more because she was amazing as Ellie!
two blondes playing brunettes XD I love it
Joel and Ellie
Dude that game was beyond epic the ending was crazy and so many twists. EXCELLENT GAME!! Buy it!!
Troy Baker is awesome I love how you voice Joel😏
That's when you know he's a talented voice actor. He did a southern accent and deepened his voice as he voiced for Joel.
Were they aware that this (and Part II) could become one of the best games of all time ?
I don’t think there was even a script of Part 2 back in 2013. Cuz I’m sure Niel was convinced that TLOU was not gonna be as popular as other ND games.
Kinda funny how Troy is the complete physical opposite of Joel - Blonde thin pretty boy vs a rugged big rough man - yet his voice work is is fits 100% and is emotional perfection.
He looks like a video game character. . .
These two deserve awards for their performances. Better than most movies and shows.
Happy birthday ashleythejohnson Aug 09 1983
Ashley really look like Ellie, omg xD
They are both gorgeous ^^
holyshit almost 10 years ago
Troy's real voice sounded so much like how he did with Delsin
Ashley did an outstanding job!
Ashley Johnson is painfully gorgeous, you can't not love her
I love troy baker he's literally in every game now, also speaks like a pro poor ashley johnson could only sit there while he explained the game
yup... saw the movie today and after seeing it like a billion time I realized it was her.
When Troy was talking I closed my eyes and imagined that Joel was speaking
Troy Baker is such an epic Voice actor. Got to love him in saints row 3.
even better fact : she was also that waitress in The Avengers who was all "Captain America...saved my life."
Uh, is it me or do the two voice actors look like they are totally checking each other out
They bone bro
... Troy is married and he calls Ashley his little sister... She is also dating the guy Troy calls his little brother, Brian W Foster.
OHVImedia wait wiki says he has 2 wives and is not with any of them right now
Well he is Married. Her name is Pamela Baker, and they married in 2012 I believe :)
Michael Hunt They're "siblings" lmao.
dude the interviewer is damn hot !!!
anyone else want to see the whole game through the motion capture scenes??
i think that'd be AWESOME
Troy baker and Ashley Johnson should make more video games together. They were absolutely phenomenal in The Last Of Us. Naughty Dog couldn't have picked any better voice actors.
Meredith Molanari or something. She also hosts Sony's The Tester.
I really like Troy's description of Joel; he's not the typical anti-hero.
woah Playstation....nice interview ;)
they're not just voice actors... they actually did the whole scenes.
Both gorgeous people and both deserve a reward for their tremendous performances. This game is better than most movies and shows.
Watch the motion capture videos with him... he's an impressive voice actor.
Troy baker is in every major game, the guy is talented
Troy Baker has done so much voice acting for video games, only the other day did I find out some of his more smaller parts like Logan Thackeray in GW2 for instance. What an awesome guy!
Recess was such a great show, I am so glad people still remember it! :D
Troy Baker was also Booker DeWitt from BioShock Infinite! I totally heard traces of Booker in Joel's voice.

you 2 guys are awsome
Troy Baker has such a great voice talent
my hat to you actors you are so different from joel and ellie nad you nailed it!
Lol no problem. She also played mel gibsons daughter in "What Woman Want" and gretchen from the cartoon "Recess". The things i remember lol.

Meredith is sooo good making interviews.
He looks like that guy from Infamous Second Son!
Because he voices and mo-caps him also!

you dominated the e3 Sony with these great games ty
Troy Baker, voicing both characters of both candidates of game of the year? IRONIC?
she pretty much used her natural voice for ellie haha. you can totally hear it when shes speaking
My IQ is raised by 100 whenever I hear Troy Baker speak. Ashley Johnson in the other hand is as cute as a button.
Go to Wikipedia and look at the list of voices he has done for video games, the mans got talent!
I think these voice actors slept with each other in real life, thats why they have such a good synergy in the game.
Troy is amazing!
yup and alot of it is awesome titles :D
They did so good
omg that's were she is from lol It was bugging me sooooo much lol thanks :) I knew I known her lol
I would like to have a conversation with these two and pretend I'm talking to Joel and Ellie in the apocalyptic times, yes I have no life.
It would be great to work with Neil and Ashley on a sequal.
felyal its happening part II
He is one of my favorite voice actors. He does the main voice from Saints Row 3. :D
Plus so many other voices from lots of games.
He also did bioshock and another one i forgot
mert gul All his roles are on Wiki. I never knew that he was literally everywhere in the video game world.
I love you guys
You know a game is concrete when voice actors like Troy are involved.. I mean... it's Booker DeWiit!
Oh man joel and Booker DeWitt? ? You are two bad ass heroes of all time
weird that the voice actors are more attractive than the characters.... :D
I watched a film called SUPER the other day with ellen page in it and her character reminded me of Ellie so much it's ridiculous. Her personality and looks reminded me so much of Ellie and at one point in the film she gets bored and sings or whistles to herself or something just like Ellie does lol.
Troy baker is the voice of booker DeWitt. So that's why when I heard the voice I knew that it sounded like troy baker
Great actor and actress
She sounds so much like Elle
That won the internet for me today.
I can't believe this guy landed both Booker & Joel in the same year o_O...
he's the new Nolan North his voice is in everything and yeah he's booker.
Troy did a great job as Booker Dewitt in Bioshock infinite
Ashley is just going to follow me around now and we'll have adventures and the last of us will never end
Yes, it is her!
I've got the perfect character roles for Troy & Ashley in a fantasy game I want to make one day.
Ellie looks like Ellie because Ellie is Ellie. We're talking about celebrities if you didn't notice.
Also Beth from The Avengers :D
I can still hear Ellie swearing
Ashley it's beautiful
I agree, they both look alot like Ellie and Joel.Ellie has just red hair but they they definitely used their faces.Troy just looks like a slimmed down and younger version of Joel for sure.
hes really texan just like joel, maybe that helped make his voice different. he also voiced booker dewitt in bioshock infinite and the default voice in SR 3 and the upcoming SR4 :D
This guy for games is like The Rock for films
Except troy has talent and doesn't play the same role over and over again.
Yep, and he is now the new protagonist for Infamous: Second Son.
They did an amazing job to an incredible game.
She was also in Dollhouse for like one episode. Got shot in the forehead, but she was still awesome. xD
he holds the mic so close to his mouth but I think that's some type of mic holding etiquette lol.
Hell no, Ashley was perfect for the job and did amazingly.
In ever really knew Naughty dog, but now that i look at the games, i realise that they only make 80+/100 games there, and this one is obviously no exception.
Throughout every interview Meridith did throughout the day, her dress, skirt, or shorts just got shorter and shorter.
hes actor to sam to from uncharted 4
So true....zombies isn't the same after these creatures.
