Wait, is that one of the last scenes from the game?
Just how much of The Last of Us Part II the show plans to adapt in season two is unclear right now, as the plan is to break the game into multiple seasons. Most of what we see in this trailer looks like scenes that would fit neatly in the first half, but there’s a moment that seems a bit out of place. The Last of Us Part II is structured around multiple flashbacks, and the final one is a conversation between Joel and Ellie on his back porch. There’s a scene in here that sure looks like the beginning of that one, in which Joel is playing his guitar and stops when he sees Ellie, though from a distance. If this scene is in season two, it could mean a lot for the thematic thrust of Part II’s story, but we’ll see if this is a fake out soon enough.
