The Last of Us returns to HBO with an ominous Season 2 premiere. “Future Days” does not begin on a positive note for survivors Joel (Pedro Pascal) and Ellie (Bella Ramsey). Much has changed since we last saw them. A bond forged through death and determination has been fractured by a savage truth just hinted at in the beginning. Even worse, a long-simmering vengeance lurks for a completely unaware Joel. Fans of the video game, regardless of how you feel about the sequel’s shocking narrative, will be pumped at the riveting early exposition.
