The first full trailer for The Last of Us Season 2 is officially here, giving us a look at Ellie and Joel five years after the events of the first season.In the new season, creators Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann are starting to take viewers through the events of the second game, The Last of Us Part 2, and fans of the games will recognise plenty of familiar faces, as well as some new ones.But alongside finally seeing elements from The Last of Us Part 2 in live-action, there are also plenty of hidden details and Easter eggs sprinkled throughout the teaser, as well as some brand new scenes that have sparked some tin-foil hat theories.
So read on for everything we caught in The Last of Us Season 2 teaser trailer and what we think might be happening. Don’t worry, we’ll keep things spoiler-free, except for at the end where we’ll give you a big ol’ warning.Bella Ramsey is reprising their role as Ellie.
Set five years after the events of the first season, Ramsey’s Ellie is now living in Jackson, Wyoming. In case you don’t recall, that’s the town from Episode 6 of Season 1 where Joel is reunited with his brother Tommy.Speaking of Joel, the teaser shows a Miller mailbox, illustrating that the Texan has also fully settled in Jackson after the events of season one.
If their living situations correlate directly to those from the game, we can infer that Ellie’s moved into her own home at this point in time and Joel is staying nearby in the town.
While they were traveling companions in the first season of The Last of Us, Ellie and Joel seem more distant in Jackson, as signaled by the stern look given by Ellie as she approaches her former travel buddy’s porch.
