Criticized on her physique, this actress of The Last of Us knocks out her detractors

Following the fourth episode of The Last of Us, available on Prime Video, an actress has been the subject of many insulting remarks about her physique. A behavior that she did not let pass.

The spread of The Last of Us continues on HBO across the Atlantic and on Prime Video in France, although it was upset by a very popular American event. After meeting Bill and Frank, brilliantly played by actors Nick Offerman and Murray Bartlett, viewers discovered a new character in the fourth episode of the series: that of Kathleen, the ruthless leader of a revolutionary movement of Kansas City, played by Melanie Lynskey (recently seen in Yellowjackets). If the 45-year-old actress excels in the role of this formidable woman, she has nevertheless been the subject of strong criticism for her physique.
