Known for playing Tess in Naughty Dog’s video game The Last of Us, we’ve learned the sad news this week that Annie Wersching has passed away after a battle with cancer at just 45.
In addition to her role in The Last of Us, Annie Wersching is known for playing Renee Walker in 37 episodes of the TV series “24,” an FBI special agent who appeared in two seasons.

The Last of Us creator Neil Druckmann tweets, “Just found out my dear friend, Annie Wersching, passed away. We just lost a beautiful artist and human being. My heart is shattered. Thoughts are with her loved ones. I miss my silly friend who helped bring Tess to life.
“Annie, you left us way too soon. You will forever be part of the TLoU & Naughty Dog family!”
