The upcoming TV series based on the popular game “The Last of Us” is set to have a few differences from the original game. One significant change is a five-year time jump, where Ellie ages from 14 to 19. This aligns well with actress Bella Ramsay’s actual age, making it perfect for filming.

During this time jump, there are flashbacks that reveal more about Joel and Ellie’s relationship. It is expected that the TV series will expand on these flashbacks, delving deeper into their story.

One potential storyline to explore is whether Ellie discovers the truth behind Joel’s lie about her immunity. Additionally, there may be hints of a romantic connection between Ellie and Dina, who may have appeared in a cameo in the first season.

The plot of “The Last of Us Part II” will likely follow Ellie in Jackson, Wyoming, as she faces the consequences of Joel’s actions to save her from a potentially deadly operation. Fans can expect more intense violence, emotional moments, and unexpected twists in the upcoming season.

For those eager to watch the series, it is available on HBO TV channels in the US and on the streaming service Max. In the UK, viewers can catch it on Sky Atlantic and Now. Pricing varies depending on the subscription package chosen.
