New The Last of Us S2 teaser hints at Abby cameo

Aug 05, 2024 9:36 AM

The highly-anticipated second season of HBO's "The Last of Us" has dropped a brief teaser, generating excitement among fans. The trailer, which is part of a showcase featuring upcoming shows on HBO Max, offers a quick glimpse into the future adventures of Joel and Ellie. Clocking in at about 20 seconds, the teaser includes scenes of Joel in therapy, Ellie in distress, and a peek at new characters, along with a brief appearance of Tommy. Notably absent is significant screen time for Abby, a major character from "The Last of Us Part II," though she can be briefly seen under a fence, hinting at her likely pivotal role in the upcoming season.

This season faces high expectations, as it adapts a game beloved by many but also controversial among some fans. With the first season a massive hit, propelling the game back up the rankings, the pressure is on HBO to deliver a similarly successful follow-up.

Will Abby have a significant role in "The Last of Us" Season 2?

Yes, Abby, a major character from "The Last of Us Part II," is expected to have a significant role in Season 2. Kaitlyn Dever has been confirmed to play Abby, though her presence in the teaser is minimal, likely to preserve suspense for viewers not familiar with the game.

"The Last of Us," originally developed by Naughty Dog for the PlayStation, has left a lasting impact on the gaming world with its intense narrative and complex characters. The game's story continues to unfold in its TV adaptation, keeping both gamers and new audiences on the edge of their seats. The first season not only boosted the game's popularity but also solidified the franchise as a major cultural phenomenon.
