The formal preview for the second series of The Last of Us is out now, giving viewers a sneak peek into the upcoming excitement and intense conflicts that will be featured.
The two-minute-long preview undeniably promises a thrilling series ahead, but co-producers Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann hinted that even more mind-blowing events were intentionally omitted from the preview.
Yesterday at SXSW (March 8th), Druckmann shared that there are some very intense scenes in the game which aren’t shown in the trailer, as reported by Entertainment Weekly.
Mazin added: “It’s crazier — it’s a wild roller coaster ride.”
Apart from revealing additional thrilling aspects, Mazin subtly suggested the potential continuation of the story, implying a possible new season, and added, “That realm is more chaotic and perilous; we have fortified ourselves. Frankly, I believe that, if we don’t get terminated, the next phase will be even more monumental.
The trailer offers a deeper look at the evolving bond between Ellie (Bella Ramsey) and Joel (Pedro Pascal), as they endeavor to create a fresh start while struggling to leave their old troubles behind.
In the heart-wrenching conclusion of the trailer, I found myself on the verge of tears as I looked into Joel’s eyes and whispered, “You promised,” hinting at my discovery that the vow he had given me at the end of season 1 was, unfortunately, unfulfilled.
Looking back, Joel made a significant choice to storm the hospital for Ellie, a decision he knew she would not approve of due to its potentially lethal consequences. To deceive her, he told her there were many more immune individuals like Ellie, but that the medical staff couldn’t manage to help them.
He additionally fabricated a story, claiming that the hospital had been looted and that he heroically saved Ellie from the chaos, hiding the fact that he had actually killed Marlene (Merle Dandridge) in the act. The intense episode concluded with Ellie compelling Joel to swear that everything he was saying about it all, including the Fireflies, was truthful. However, as we can see hinted at in the suspenseful season 2 trailer, secrets have a tendency to eventually be revealed.
The trailer provides a clearer view of the two key organizations that will play significant roles in the narrative of season 2 – the Seraphites and the Washington Liberation Front, headed by Jeffrey Wright as Isaac.
Regarding the groups at SXSW, Mazin and Druckmann noted that the Seraphites seem to have a farming lifestyle, and they possess distinctive, deliberate scars on their cheeks.
Mazin added: “Then the question is, who’s the bad guy?”
Additionally, the joint creators verified certain aspects of the upcoming season, such as the presence of spores, enabling the cordyceps contagion to become airborne, possibly causing chaos.
Similarly, they’ve also announced that Season 2 will bring in a new element – Stalkers. These are a quick, intelligent kind of infected from the games, capable of moving silently. Fans of the series have encountered them before, so there’s much anticipation for what’s to come!
In the second season, a period of five years’ tranquility after the occurrences of the previous season comes to an end as Joel and Ellie become entangled in conflicts, not only with each other but also with a world that proves to be more perilous and unstable than the one they initially departed from.
