"We value performance over anything else. We need someone to really capture the essence of those characters. Do they look exactly like the character with their eyebrows or their nose or their body?' Whatever it is. It's not nowhere on the priority list, but it's below a bunch of other things that we consider." - HBO's The Last of Us Co-Creator Neil Druckmann.

She's a good actress.
I'm curious if the TV only fans will lose their minds over the big event that sets the plot in motion the same way the game fans did. Some of the game fans went so far as to send death threats to the people involved. The producers did already add extra security for one cast members because of the death threats the actor from the game got.
I'm not entirely convinced that the thing you're referring to is actually even going to happen in the show.
I'm not sure how a retelling of TLOU2 would go without the event in question.
I'll go with no. Certainly not like what happened when the game details were leaked.
Don't see Neil acquiescing to the haters. Moreover - adding to what @carcinoGeneticist has said - how would it even function as an adaptation of TLOU2 if it were retooled to such a degree? We've seen enough footage that transpired later in the game to nix that idea, surely?
