The new trailer introduces Joel (Pedro Pascal) and Ellie (Bella Ramsey).
Joel is a middle-aged man who becomes a delivery specialist once a deadly virus almost wipes out humanity.
Apparently immune to the virus, Ellie’s body might be the key to finding a cure and taking back society.
The series will follow the plot of the original game: they navigate the ruins of the United States, evading the highly-aggressive Infected while Joel escorts Ellie to a lab where scientists can study her blood.

The trailer shows some game locations perfectly reproduced for TV, showing how the series adaptation will stick close to the game. Watch below:

The cast includes Lamar Johnson, Keivonn Woodard, Nick Offerman, Anna Torv, Merle Dandrige, Nico Parker, Gabriel Luna, Jeffrey Pierce, and Murray Bartlett.
