Pedro Pascal returns as Joel through flashbacks in the upcoming sixth episode of 'The Last of Us'. Although Joel was brutally killed in the second episode of Season 2 by Abby, his character's influence continues in the relationship with Ellie, who is depicted as seeking revenge. The series co-creator Craig Mazin confirmed that Joel and Ellie still have significant moments together this season, showcasing their bond prior to the five-year time jump. The promotional material hints at their adventures, highlighting themes of love and revenge in a dystopian world.
"Joelâs death was shocking and serves as motivation for Ellieâs character. Even though heâs gone, we see his influence through flashbacks this season."
"It's interesting how revenge drives the story forward. Ellieâs quest for vengeance mirrors themes found in similar epic stories, like 'Game of Thrones.'"
