We had a brief 20-second clip the other month, now HBO has released an official two-minute teaser trailer for the second season of its TV series adaptation of “The Last of Us” based on the highly acclaimed Naughty Dog game series. The new seven-episode season filmed between January and August in Canada and adapts part of the story narrative of “The Last of Us Part II”. The trailer makes use of Pearl Jam’s “Future Days” which fans of the game will be very familiar with. The trailer confirms there’ll be some structural change-up from the game to a somewhat more linear narrative with one key scene from the ending moved up and appearing in this season. It also gives us a good look at Kaitlyn Dever’s Abby and Jeffrey Wright’s Isaac along with more insight into Catherine O’Hara’s new character. Game creator and series producer Neil Druckmann tells Variety that the new run will include a key scene that “really kind of tells you a lot of backstory of this important character that there wasn’t really a way for us to even do that in the game.” Bella Ramsey, Pedro Pascal, Gabriel Luna, Rutina Wesley, Kaitlyn Dever, Young Manzino, Isabela Merced, Jeffrey Isaac, Ariela Barer, Tati Gabrielle, Danny Ramirez and Catherine O’Hara co-star in the new run which premieres in 2025. https://www.darkhorizons.com/teaser-trailer-hbos-the-last-of-us-season-2/
I like the mountains in the winter backdrop. I would have thought that fungus zombies would freeze in the cold but I don't know the whole mythos.
Honestly I am losing interest in these shows now because of the large break between the seasons. I forget the characters, the storyline for the previous seasons and I don't feel like watching recaps on youtube. the official recaps are crap. i watched like 3 recaps to remind myself what house of dragons season 1 was about...still haven't started season 2.
I'm with you there man. Even the recaps don't always do the seasons justice when I watch them. Not a fan of these long breaks whatsoever.
Looking forward to it, hope they keep it with a better pace this time. No boring episodes that sidetrack the story.
I rewatch this show all the time. Especially Episode 1 and 3. Ep1 is just the whole apocalyptic holy **** what’s happening stuff I love. I don’t do horror movies mostly because I grew up in a haunted house that my parents only sold about 5 years ago, but I love zombie movies for that. Ep3 reminds me of my wife. I literally rewatched it LAST NIGHT. A life spent with someone you love so much and just being grateful for that. The world around you is crazy but it’s you and that person. To me that episode transcends the genre big time. So well done..so well acted…the music is perfect…and the scenes around their last day together are just painfully beautiful. I don’t know if I will be able to handle our last day together if I’m the survivor..I don’t wanna be Had to talk my wife into watching this show with me…I told her she’d love it after I saw Ep3. I can’t wait to show her this preview!!! Thanks for sharing!! Also….the intro to Ep1 on the talk show is smarter even than Dawn of the Dead remake which I thought was brilliant….especially the Johnny Cash opening! But the scientist/doctor talking about fungus was unreal great
Well dammit, I think I quit around Ep2 because of zombie burnout, but I guess I'll revisit this before the new season comes out. I do like to stay up on all latest cultural trends and watercooler stuff. I stay sometimes in a haunted house, ghost's name's Walter.
I’ll tell you stories some day about the home I lived in. But Ep3 is unreal amazing from start to finish. It completely transcends the series and the concept.
I haven't seen anything zombie related, or re-read WWZ, in about 2 years, so I'm ready. You've sold me. Walter is a nice ghost, he just likes to mess with things while you're not around, or asleep.
My mom’s stories from the home I grew up in…I have a picture of it on my desk in my home office…are wild. but that episode is just great humanity stuff. I rewatch it a lot. So good. Also it won’t hit you as a zombie movie. It’s deeper
I'll take a picture of this 140? year old cedar wooden house, that we've made some improvements on, but it's still a standing 130 year old wooden house. Walter was born in it in 1875, but he died elsewhere. Everybody in the family around here says he made it back as fast as he could.
I’ve recommended episode 3 to people just as a stand alone, no other viewing required. No one has been disappointed.
