THE LAST OF US Season 2 To Premiere In April

British Columbia filmed hit video game adaption The Last of Us Season 2 now has a premiere date for April.

Season 2 picks up five years after the events of season one, which chronicled Joel (Pedro Pascal) and Ellie (Bella Ramsey)’s trek across a post-apocalyptic, pandemic-scarred America. They are settled in the Jackson commune run by Joel’s brother Tommy (Gabriel Luna) and sister-in-law Maria (Rutina Wesley),

Ellie is, for once, enjoying a normal life as a teenager. She even has a crush on a girl named Dina (Isabela Merced), who happens to be the ex of her close friend, Jesse (Young Mazino). However, there remains tension between her and Joel, who’s still grappling with the actions he took to save Ellie’s life on that cold Firefly hospital bed in the season 1 finale.
