Among the new characters seen in the trailer is a blonde woman played by Catherine O’Hara.

This double sin is sure to play heavily on Joel’s mind inThe Last of Usseason 2.

Joel is alone with Ellie in a post-apocalyptic world, and already struggling with PTSD and panic attacks.

This could be crucial in bringing them closer together, or driving them further apart.

The Last of Usseason 2 is set for release in 2025.

Ellie will likely take on more of Joel’s influence, for better or worse.

This character development will likely have the positives of adopting Joel’s skill and tenacity.

However,becoming as ruthless as Joel may not prove to be in Ellie’s best interest.

Storm Reid excelled as Riley, so it’s a shame her role was cut so tragically short.

PerhapsThe Last of Usseason 2 could bring back Reid as Ellie dreams or remembers her presence.

Riley could be a source of psychological explorationfor the show’s season 2 Ellie.

So, it seems more likely that season 2 will target a character of less importance, like Tommy.

Alternatively, some more unfortunate or disturbing event may take place that brings the truth crashing down on Joel.

This would prove far worse than hearing the truth from Joel.

Ellie may withdraw from Joel after finding out the truth.
