The Last Of Us Season 2 Teaser Shows A Melancholic Joel And Ellie Five Years After Season 1
HBO has finally dropped the first teaser for The Last of Us Season 2, giving us a bittersweet peek at life a few years after Season 1 wrapped up.
This Emmy magnet (eight wins and 24 nominations!) follows Joel and Ellie as they fight their way through a world infested by a parasitic fungus that’s turned people into freaky zombie-like creatures called "the infected". But that’s not all—they’ve also got to deal with desperate survivors, from mercenaries to cannibals.

The official logline reads: “After five years of peace following the events of the first season, Joel and Ellie’s collective past catches up to them, drawing them into conflict with each other and a world even more dangerous and unpredictable than the one they left behind.”
Just like Season 1 was based on the 2013 video game, Season 2 is set to follow the storyline of the 2020 sequel, The Last of Us Part II, which dives into the fallout from Joel’s action at the end of the first season.
