Pedro Pascal will be back as Joel, with Bella Ramsey back as Ellie – with one especially important new character set to enter the mix. The Last of Us season 2 is set to follow the (arguably even more heart-wrenching and emotionally devastating) storyline ofThe Last of Us 2video game. The second installment, which has a five-year time jump, stars Ellie and playable new character Abbie, and without giving anything away, let’s just say she’s essential to, er, driving what happens next over the course of Ellie’s post-apocalyptic life.
Kaitlyn Dever, who was linked to playing Ellie years prior to the casting of Bella Ramsey,is rumored to be the frontrunner for Abby. Ironically, Dever was one of the most fan-cast actors for Ellie before the show’s release. We’ll just have to wait and see.
“We’re certainly also going to push the technology that we use forward,” showrunner Craig Mazin previously toldDeadlineof the new season. “We learned so much, particularly in regard to the infected and how to better deliver scenes with them. So, we’re just going to keep moving the bar up and up and up. That’s kind of our call to arms.”
