The Last of Us Season 2 Set Photo Confirms Key Ellie Storyline from the Game

Highlights

  • The leaked images confirm a significant storyline about Ellie in season 2 of HBO’s The Last of Us.
  • Fans hope for a faithful adaptation of the game’s storyline in the upcoming season.
  • Season 2 will focus on Ellie’s three days in Seattle, with Abby’s storyline possibly saved for season 3.

As a die-hard fan who has spent countless hours immersed in the post-apocalyptic world of The Last of Us, I am beyond excited about the leaked images confirming Ellie’s significant storyline in season 2! After the success of the first season and the criticism it received for straying too far from the game’s narrative, I couldn’t be more thrilled to see HBO staying true to its source material.


It appears that recently leaked photos from the production of HBO’s “The Last of Us” suggest that the show will delve deeper into a significant plotline involving Ellie in the upcoming second season.

In its initial release, HBO’s adaptation of The Last of Us was a resounding success, earning widespread acclaim and numerous award nominations throughout the season. While critics appreciated the series for its compelling narrative and stunning visuals, some fans criticized aspects of season 1, particularly the handling of certain storylines and the adaptation from the original game. Despite these criticisms, production on season 2 is underway, with hints that a significant part of Ellie’s story will be explored further in the upcoming season, suggesting an attempt to remain faithful to the source material.

The photos shared by Reddit user u/OwenChristopherNDA show Bella Ramsey and Young Mazino engaged in a conversation on a city street. In the TV series, Ramsey portrays Ellie and Mazin takes on the role of Jesse for the second season. If the series adheres to the game’s narrative, this scene could be a crucial moment from the Seattle Day 3 segment. In the game, Ellie is resolute about not leaving Seattle without Tommy, while Dina is equally firm about staying with Ellie. Jesse, despite his reservations, decides to accompany Ellie on her quest to the aquarium, where it’s believed Abby is hiding. Their objective is to find Tommy and make a safe return to Jackson. This suggests that HBO and its creators are committed to following the storyline of Part II of the well-loved game.

In the photos we’ve seen so far, Ramsey’s character Ellie has been seen with Dina, portrayed by Isabel Merced. However, no images or sightings of Kaitlyn Dever as Abby have been leaked yet for the TV series adaptation. This suggests that season two will focus exclusively on Ellie’s three days in Seattle, while Abby’s story might be saved for a potential third season. Given the intensity and importance of both narratives to the overall plot progression, it seems the creators have chosen to present them separately, much like how the game allows players to experience each character’s perspective one after the other. While some may argue that they could’ve interwoven the stories, doing so might have diluted their impact.

Enthusiasts are looking forward to a primary focus on Ellie in the second season of “The Last of Us,” but crafting Abby’s storyline for season 3 might prove challenging. Regardless, a sneak peek from HBO has ignited excitement among fans for what’s next in Season 2.

The first season of The Last of Us is available for streaming on MAX.
