The Last of Us season two promises a lot more action alongside devastating drama


At a SXSW panel this weekend, the cast and creators of The Last of Us dug into what to expect for season two.

The new trailer shows off the town of Jackson, where Joel and Ellie settled at the end of season one along with his brother Tommy, under a massive siege of Infected, the kind of battle that might take up an entire episode. The other big theme that came out of the panel focused on how new cast members Kaitlyn Dever (Abby), Isabela Merced (Dina) and Young Mazino (Jesse) would fit in with returning stars Bella Ramsey (Ellie), Pedro Pascal (Joel) and Gabriel Luna (Tommy). Kaitlyn Dever owned up to the anxiety the shoot produced, saying that stepping into a world that was so beloved was "nerve-wracking and anxiety-inducing" — and that’s without mentioning the online hate that the character she’s portraying (and its voice actor) received in 2020 when The Last of Us Part II was leaked two months before its release.
