Makers of the post-apocalyptic television series The Last of Us say fans are in for extra action and scarier zombies when the show returns for a much-awaited second season, two years after the first season finale aired.
The series is based on the video game franchise of the same name and follows survivors Joel Miller, played by Pedro Pascal, and his young protégé Ellie (Bella Ramsey), who fight mutated creatures and other people.
The show’s second season takes place five years after the events of the first season, and sees Ellie, who is now 19, and Joel settled in Jackson, in the US state of Wyoming, and at odds with each other.
“There’s a lot more action in this season, or more like physical fighting. It was more intense, more emotionally complex,” Ramsey said, premiering the new season in London on April 10.
Craig Mazin, who co-created the series with Neil Druckmann, said the seven-episode second season stays loyal to its source material and the style they established previously.
