“The Last of Us” Season 2 Teaser Trailer Sets the Stage for Joel, Ellie and Abby to Collide

HBO’s hit horror series “The Last of Us” returns for Season 2 in 2025, and HBO has just released the first official teaser trailer in celebration of “The Last of Us Day” this morning.

Preview “The Last of Us” Season 2 below, which catches back up with Joel and Ellie after the harrowing events of the first season’s finale. And keep your eyes peeled for a first look at Kaitlyn Dever’s Abby, a character from the video game’s sequel who will factor heavily into Season 2. If you’ve played The Last of Us Part II, you know what we mean when we say that.

Following a record-breaking first season as the most-watched debut season of a series ever for HBO, the second season will debut in 2025 on HBO and will be available to stream on Max.

Season 2 returning cast includes Pedro Pascal as Joel, Bella Ramsey as Ellie, Gabriel Luna as Tommy, and Rutina Wesley as Maria. New cast includes Kaitlyn Dever as Abby, Isabela Merced as Dina, Young Mazino as Jesse, Ariela Barer as Mel, Tati Gabrielle as Nora, Spencer Lord as Owen, and Danny Ramirez as Manny.

Catherine O’Hara also guest stars in “The Last of Us” Season 2, alongside Jeffrey Wright as Isaac, the very same character he voiced in The Last of Us Part II video game.

The lineup of directors for Season 2 includes Mark Mylod (“Succession,” The Menu) alongside Nina Lopez-Corrado (Perry Mason), Stephen Williams (Watchmen) and Kate Herron (Loki). They join returning directors Peter Hoar, Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann.

The second season of HBO’s “The Last of Us” will adapt video game sequel The Last of Us Part II, but don’t expect the game’s events to be contained to just one season. It’s likely that the sequel’s sprawling, multi-character story will span the timeline of at least two seasons.

HBO’s “The Last of Us” takes place twenty years after modern civilization has been destroyed. Joel, a hardened survivor, is hired to smuggle Ellie, a 14-year-old girl, out of an oppressive quarantine zone. What starts as a small job soon becomes a brutal, heartbreaking journey, as they both must traverse across the U.S. and depend on each other for survival.
