Joel’s brother Tommy in The Last of Us was a kickass Terminator and Ghost Rider

Episode 6 of The Last of Ussaw Pedro Pascal’s Joel reunite with his long-lost brother at a commune in Wyoming, completing the part of Joel’s cross-country trek that he was actually looking forward to. It was an emotional reunion — while the two brothers hadn’t seen each other in a very long time, they started bickering almost instantly, with Joel bitter at Tommy for being uncommunicative but also seemingly for being happy.

It was good to see Tommy again, because actor Gabriel Luna is a talented performer we don’t see enough of (his taken-aback reaction to being told by his wife that they live in a commune, and therefore they are communists, is one of the highlights of the episode). And it’s a good time to remind you he was the best part of two other flawed franchise projects that had their moments: Terminator: Dark Fate and Agents of SHIELD season 4.

Luna was the wickedly fun main antagonist of the otherwise forgettable Dark Fate, called “Rev-9.” Rev-9 has the usual terrifying elements of most good Terminators — super-strength, super-speed, shapeshifting, a complete lack of care for how many humans it kills — with an added twist: Rev-9 can split the liquid metal and exoskeleton portions of its body into two distinct units, essentially duplicating itself when it needs two Rev-9s.

You can see that on display here during a car chase, as the exoskeleton Rev-9 remains in the truck to keep the chase going while the liquid metal Rev-9 launches forward to attack.

The most memorable scene of the movie is when Luna’s Rev-9, posing as a Border Patrol agent, searches for Mackenzie Davis’ Grace Harper (basically this movie’s John Connor). A massive commotion breaks out, resulting in a fight scene wherein Rev-9 slaughters many Border
