The teaser features glimpses of several new additions to the season 2 cast, including Kaitlyn Dever as Abby, Isabela Merced as Dina, and Jeffrey Wright as Isaac. The Last of Us season 2 premieres in 2025.

House of the Dragon is now on hiatus, but Game of Thrones fans will still return to Westeros in 2025 with A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. The series is set 100 years before the events in Game of Thrones and about 100 years after House of the Dragon. Based on George R.R. Martin’s Dunk and Egg novellas, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms stars Peter Claffey as Ser Duncan the Tall (Dunk), while Dexter Sol Ansell will play his squire, Egg.

There are massive spoilers ahead for The Last of Us season 2, episode 2. Steer clear if you haven't seen this week's episode!

HBO's adaptation of The Last of Us seemed to intentionally downplay Kaitlyn Dever's Abby in the promotion for the second season possibly because she's such a divisive figure in The Last of Us Part II. In both the game and the show, Abby has a grudge against Joel (Pedro Pascal) for murdering her father and she vowed revenge. In the second episode of season 2, the show brought Joel's final fate to the screen as Abby beat him to death in front of a horrified Ellie (Bella Ramsey).
