The Last Of Us Episode 6 Trailer Sees Brothers Reuniting

Joel and Ellie appear to cover a lot of ground between the fifth and sixth episodes of The Last of Us. The newest trailer for the HBO series shows the pair rolling into a snow-covered Jackson, Wyoming, settlement, which sits over 1,000 miles west of Kansas City. Warning: Spoilers ahead.

The teaser begins with Ellie revealing to Joel that she tried to save Sam's life by using her blood on his infection spot. But as is obvious now, he replies that the cure is going to be more complicated than a simple transfusion. This exchange also highlights the grief Ellie feels after losing another person close to them.

Afterward, the video cuts to the duo on horseback, riding into the Wyoming settlement, where Joel seemingly finds his brother quickly. The happy reunion doesn't last, though, as Tommy shows remorse for the murders they committed in the past.

This leads to Ellie encountering a new character for the show but a familiar face for players of The Last of Us: Maria, portrayed by True Blood actress Rutina Wesley. In the game, Maria is Tommy's wife, though it's unknown how the series will present their relationship. Regardless, she warns Ellie of who she puts her faith in. "The only people who can betray us, are the ones we trust," she tells the teenager.

The sixth episode of The Last of Us will premiere this Sunday, February 19. While waiting, be sure to check out Henry actor Lamar Johson's thoughts on fighting the infected and his gut-wrenching scenes from the previous two episodes. And don't forget the The Last of Us has already been renewed for Season 2.
