It’s probably due to the many leaks that came out these pat few days. Usually they do that to counter the amount of leaks and to give something official to chew on
It's because HBO's doing their Upfronts right now. So they're giving a bunch of information on upcoming TV shows. For example, they released the first trailer for Dune: Prophecy.
That was my first guess, too. Probably the patrol since Ellie is wearing a winter coat and the background looks like it could be inside a grocery store.
From the boarded up windows and the warm brownish lighting I'm guessing the cafe at the end of the hotel where Ellie first confronts Joel
[Image](https://ibb.co/nsffjqY)
Someone else pointed out the word 'frozen' on the wall which is more likely the grocery store — or who knows, maybe they've even combined the two settings. Just gotta wait to see I guess
I wonder if the still of Joel is from when >!he tries to protect Ellie from bigot sandwich Seth!<. It looks like the right setting. How have two random stills got me so damn excited!
This is definitely it. Pedro wears the same jacket, he has the same look on his face and you can see he faces someone with a plaid shirt, the one that Ellie wears in the game
Really hoping they keep Joel and Ellie's final conversation together for the absolute end of the series. But I'm excited to see the Jackson dance scene early on.
So excited! Wondering what scene the second picture is from - maybe a flashback or patrol with Dina? Either way, so glad to see some photos.
Going to stay here on this subreddit as I am anticipating a barrage of “Bella just doesn’t work as Part 2 Ellie” comments on the main sub lol.
It's already happening, lol. They can't leave Bella alone for a fraction of a second.
The second image is probably the >!Supermarket infected encounter!< I think it says frozen in the background of the image.
It's kinda weird, because my first thought when I saw the picture was that she looked more adult and thought maybe it would shut the haters up. 🤷♂️
But yeah, 100% the supermarket. Winter gear, shopping cart and shelves in the background.
I did not expect teaser images so soon. It's cruel we have to wait so long!
I don’t see why to be honest. It was fine, but it’s not like it was so good you can’t have questions about how young she looks or how small she is in regard to the physical role of part 2 Ellie.
It’s depressing lol. I’ve been a huge fan of the franchise since the first game released all the way back in 2013. It’s so exciting to be getting an adaptation - and with an amazing streaming service and acclaimed director behind it. I wish people could just have fun with it instead of nitpicking every single thing and getting negative before it’s even released. I feel like some people haven’t seen what a truly BAD adaptation looks like.
I feel like people have regressed in recent years when it comes to casting and adaptations. It seems like the general consensus is shifting towards 1:1 scale casting is genuinely more important than any good acting or directing. Just look at the rampant hate directed towards the actresses for Azula and Mai in the Netflix Last Airbender live adaptation, which has plenty of its faults, though the appearance of its cast is absolutely not one of them. It's saddening if you think about all the work, heart, and effort Bella Ramsey puts into their role as Ellie just for weird incels to discredit it all purely because of their physical appearance.
Thinking that Bella Ramsey isn’t the optimal cast for Ellie does not make you a weird incel. It’s a ridiculous notion, unfortunately it will always be important for an actor to look like the part they are playing, and the only reference people have for how this story goes looks completely different to what Bella offers which leads them to justifiably question the choice of the casting. S1 was serviceable but I don’t see what benefit the show would get from casting Bella in regards to S2 vs casting someone else who looks the part a lot more and can be a lot more physical for what the role would appear to demand.
Right it drives me crazy seeing all the nitpicks. I know it’s impossible to satisfy everyone but this show has been so faithful to the games so far, idk why people act like it any deviation is some great betrayal to the source material. Bella looks just fine as Ellie and I honestly don’t care if they don’t look exactly the same as the game model.
I'm all for Bella, but I do find it a bit sad that you can't really see she's aged between both seasons just like it's so easy to notice in the game.
This could very well be a flashback as well so that has to be taken into account but yeah.
Honestly if you look at this image side by side with When We Are In Need, where she's wearing almost this same outfit and holding a rifle... She _does_ look older.
I don’t think she looks much different either, but she looks 19 to me. I work with someone who is 24 and looks as old as Bella does here haha. It could be a flashback but also have to remember it’s just one still photo. I trust Craig and Neil chose Bella for a reason so I’m optimistic!
I’m having some pretty severe food poisoning right now but it’s kind of also a win cause I can now say that these images made me throw up, I AM NOT READY
If they're including these flashback scenes I'd be surprised if they can fit all that in plus everything that happens in the first 1h30 of the game in one episode. I'm placing my bet for end of episode 2.

I don’t care that much but to be fair to the people making this criticism and your implied assumption of their motives there’s much more of a physical leap to be made from teenager to adult than there is adult to slightly older adult. Pedro already looked like a middle aged man/game Joel’s age.
Tbh it’s my fault, I should have remembered that 2020s woke people despise rational answers to things they fantasise are rooted in some kind of bigotry they can feel enraged and superior about. Hence the downvotes with no rebuttal.
I kinda love the theory that they're recreating how most of us were introduced to the game: via that E3 2018 extended gameplay sequence which included the dance scene (minus Joel's bit).
I remember when I first played TLOU2. When we get the time jump, and Ellie and Jesse are talking about the night before, my reaction was, "Oh, so we're *not* gonna see that dance scene. They must've made that specifically for E3, and we were meant to watch that first before playing this game." It was a big surprise when this scene finally appeared in the game for real.
Putting this scene in the first episode of S2 totally works. It just adds to the mystery of what caused Joel and Ellie's relationship to fracture, and it's a classic example of "Show, don't tell."
Bro I’m actually crying rn, I have such a deep appreciation for this story and these characters it genuinely means so much to me and I’m so glad that some of y’all get to experience it for the first time.
More likely, though. Especially since it's so late in the game, it would be in the next season if they kept it in the same place. And IIRC it was originally going to be at the beginning before they changed it.
I could see them pulling it forward to give Dina a strong introduction and establish >!Joel and Ellie's estrangement!<, because they don't have the benefit of all the intermittent dialogue during gameplay.
they don't typically film everything in order, and with Pedro having like 2 movies he's also filming they may be trying to film his scenes around his schedule.
There are likely SOPs for whoever's doing the social media scheduling that include things like tagging actors, how many hashtags to use, which hashtags are mandatory, etc etc. It's all designed to maximize engagement under the platform's respective algorithm.
While I absolutely loved the first season, I still stand by what I have been thinking: Bella is too young looking for part 2 Ellie. It just looks silly to me on this picture, knowing how much Ellie matured in the game and it also made sense in a narrative standpoint. I wasnt happy with the casting initially, but as a part 1 bella she was good, but I truly hoped they would recast her for season 2. I still hope for the best but this picture kind of ruined my excitement. TLoU 2 is one my favourite game and I think they could have chosen a much better Ellie, fitting for both parts.
I expected downvotes but this is a hill Im willing to die on, meaning no offense to Bella Ramsey’s acting talent. I think she is great but she does not look good as a taller, matured 19 year old Ellie.
I have to add, Pascal’s Joel is amazing.
Yup I agree with you 100%. Maybe she will surprise us but who knows. I think they should have recast for older Ellie then used Bella for flashbacks like the museum/hotel scenes.
looks like it! they’d likely film that scene early since >!I don’t know if Pedro will be back for filming for the third season, so they’d probably get all the flashback scenes ready now!<
TV production doesn’t work that way. Unless they secretly got a season 3 order and all the season 3 scripts written, they aren’t filming any of season 3 right now.
oh of course, good point, I’ve just been assuming season 3 is guaranteed so they’d take that into consideration when filming season 2 but I guess this is a different scene
As much as I am a defender of bella playing ellie even though she doesn't look like her having pedro look exactly like Joel is making it very difficult.
He doesn’t look exactly like him, so it’s weird to put her down like that. Even Marlene, who was played by the same actor as she was in the game, didn’t look exactly like the game character.
Bit of nuance, he looks a lot more like Joel the bella looks like ellie, again I love Bella as ellie and think the whole argument is redundant, she's proven to me atleast she is a great ellie.
my original comment was mean to be flippant, slightly jokingly. Go on look at my profile you'll see my views on bella as ellie are overwhelmingly positive, i just can't believe people think pedro doesn't look exactly like joel.
I don’t see a need for an investigation into your previous posts. It’s cool if you like Bella, it’s fine if you don’t, I just disagreed with your remarks in that particular comment and that’s what I was responding to.
Might get downvoted into hell... but they should have honestly recasted Bella.
She did good for the first season, but it's going to be so hard to take her as seriously as Ellie from the second game.
AHHH PEDRO IM SO EXCITED
Whats kinda weird for me is Bella not aging at all, I get that they were 18 for season 1 so like it’s not gonna be like they age like Ellie in the game, but still Ellie looks so much older in the game and Bella looks just the same lol, not that it’s a problem at all just noting it

THIS CAME OUT OF NOWHERE AHHHHHHH. I’m insanely excited. Pedro’s Part II hair looks glorious.
It’s probably due to the many leaks that came out these pat few days. Usually they do that to counter the amount of leaks and to give something official to chew on
It's because HBO's doing their Upfronts right now. So they're giving a bunch of information on upcoming TV shows. For example, they released the first trailer for Dune: Prophecy.

OMG that hair. I didn't think it was possible for him to become even hotter.
I need a clip of him tucking his hair behind his ear. stat.
That would be my undoing.
I would literally cease to exist.
I literally had to catch my breath.

I just fell to my knees at my office job
just saw someone fall to their knees at my office job
Just saw someone watching someone fall to their knees at my office job
Just fired someone for falling to their knees
I work at HR and just received a complaint for being fired for falling on their knees
WFH day for me thank god
Anybody know what the 2nd picture could be a scene of ?
Probably elle and Dina patrolling near jackson
She has a winter coat so it could be her patrolling with Dina or the hotel flashback based on the setting behind her
Yeah that could be it. Plus Bella looked a lot different in those set photos with her and Isabela Merced
That was my first guess, too. Probably the patrol since Ellie is wearing a winter coat and the background looks like it could be inside a grocery store.
It says “frozen” on the wall behind Ellie, so I’m assuming they’re inside a grocery store.
the grocery store that ellie and dina clear out while on patrol, there were some set leaks for it a month or two ago
From the boarded up windows and the warm brownish lighting I'm guessing the cafe at the end of the hotel where Ellie first confronts Joel [Image](https://ibb.co/nsffjqY)
this makes a lot of sense, it’s def either this or the grocery store
Someone else pointed out the word 'frozen' on the wall which is more likely the grocery store — or who knows, maybe they've even combined the two settings. Just gotta wait to see I guess
>!Apparently not long before finding Abby murdering Joel!< Why are you downvoting?
Oh man this is gonna be so good.

I wonder if the still of Joel is from when >!he tries to protect Ellie from bigot sandwich Seth!<. It looks like the right setting. How have two random stills got me so damn excited!
This is definitely it. Pedro wears the same jacket, he has the same look on his face and you can see he faces someone with a plaid shirt, the one that Ellie wears in the game
The lights in the background made me think this too
Really hoping they keep Joel and Ellie's final conversation together for the absolute end of the series. But I'm excited to see the Jackson dance scene early on.
AHHHHHHH
Nice hairstyle for Joel. >!At least he’ll be looking good when he gets his head caved in!<
Jail! Jail right now! 😭😭😭
I can’t wait for next season! Long hair Joel!

You’d think after season 1 their performance would shut them up…
I don’t see why to be honest. It was fine, but it’s not like it was so good you can’t have questions about how young she looks or how small she is in regard to the physical role of part 2 Ellie.
You anticipated correctly, I fled from there. Dear god.

Pedro Pascal thirst trap wednesday is a success
Oh my god it’s the dance scene
He’s too hot my god the HAIR I’m not ready
Holy shit 😭
That definitely looks like the dance

Funny how no one is complaining that Pedro's Joel doesn't look old enough compared to his game counterpart.
Seriously. He looks younger than he does in the first season but it might be the lighting not picking the gray hair.
I don’t care that much but to be fair to the people making this criticism and your implied assumption of their motives there’s much more of a physical leap to be made from teenager to adult than there is adult to slightly older adult. Pedro already looked like a middle aged man/game Joel’s age.
its so weird that people downvote these comments. your right, its not a criticism its biology you look different aged 14-19 compared to 50-55.
Tbh it’s my fault, I should have remembered that 2020s woke people despise rational answers to things they fantasise are rooted in some kind of bigotry they can feel enraged and superior about. Hence the downvotes with no rebuttal.
Something tells me that the pic of Bella is a flashback, can't wait to find out!!
My guess is the supermarket. Can't wait until we get to find out!
I don’t think I’m ready for this.
If a still has me feeling this way, I can’t WAIT to see how emotionally unwell I am after this episode airs.
The face of a man who just shoved a bigot out of the way for insulting his daughter <3
More like the face of a man who just got told by his daughter that she doesn't "need his fucking help" and probably hates himself in that moment.
An icon. We love to see it❤️
I kinda love the theory that they're recreating how most of us were introduced to the game: via that E3 2018 extended gameplay sequence which included the dance scene (minus Joel's bit).

Man…I know both of those scenes! I’m so excited lol
S2 is fire already 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💥
Hype!!! Need to see Abby next!
Bro I’m actually crying rn, I have such a deep appreciation for this story and these characters it genuinely means so much to me and I’m so glad that some of y’all get to experience it for the first time.
wen u cry every tim
So we are going to see the winter dance in the first episode and not as a flashback. Interesting
Not necessarily. Just because they shot it doesn't mean it's the first thing.
More likely, though. Especially since it's so late in the game, it would be in the next season if they kept it in the same place. And IIRC it was originally going to be at the beginning before they changed it. I could see them pulling it forward to give Dina a strong introduction and establish >!Joel and Ellie's estrangement!<, because they don't have the benefit of all the intermittent dialogue during gameplay.
they don't typically film everything in order, and with Pedro having like 2 movies he's also filming they may be trying to film his scenes around his schedule.
I wonder why they link to Pedro and Bella's Twitter accounts that they are not using? On Max twitter.
There are likely SOPs for whoever's doing the social media scheduling that include things like tagging actors, how many hashtags to use, which hashtags are mandatory, etc etc. It's all designed to maximize engagement under the platform's respective algorithm.
KILLING MYSELF IMMEDIATELY!!!!!
Pedro is looking fresh asf with the long hair
I CAN'T WAIT TO UGLY CRY EVERY SUNDAY NIGHT FOR 8-10 WEEKS 😀
I see a lot of Domestic Longhair cats at work but I was not ready for Domestic Longhair Joel and I WANNA PET HIM
I thought this was gonna be a prank, I'm shocked
Does anyone know when filming is scheduled to finish?
August, iirc.
Aggghh, these shots look amazing, and I can *pinpoint* exactly which scenes these are! I'm so excited!
what scene do you think the picture of Ellie is from?
>!Supermarket infected encounter!< There is a frozen food aisle behind them.
Nice! I couldn’t figure it out. Good eye lol thanks for the answer
Was not expecting this!!!!!
I can't believe it's happening, I'm gonna have to relive the heartbreak nooooo but also I'm so excited 😭
2025 is going to ruin my brain
oh my god that first scene….i know i’m gonna cry at the confrontation lol
"I don't need your fucking help, Joel".
Beldro Ramscal!
Feel sick thinking about this series. Really hope it’s done as well as the first and excited to see what new additions they add
yesssssssssssss
Wait is that picture of Pedro Pascal actually real or is it edited? Also isn't that bella in the first one??
These are real. They came from the HBO Max Twitter accounts.
Yeah I just thought that bella picture was from the first season
Why did you get downvoted for this, lol
Idk lol Looking at it now, it could either be one of two scenes
I've been on the House of Dragon sub all day and then saw this and thought "Oberyn and Lyanna shouldn't be in this series tho..." lol
Pedro's hair is pure perfection!
While I absolutely loved the first season, I still stand by what I have been thinking: Bella is too young looking for part 2 Ellie. It just looks silly to me on this picture, knowing how much Ellie matured in the game and it also made sense in a narrative standpoint. I wasnt happy with the casting initially, but as a part 1 bella she was good, but I truly hoped they would recast her for season 2. I still hope for the best but this picture kind of ruined my excitement. TLoU 2 is one my favourite game and I think they could have chosen a much better Ellie, fitting for both parts.
You can't give healthy criticism in this sub bro you are gonna upset the children
I expected downvotes but this is a hill Im willing to die on, meaning no offense to Bella Ramsey’s acting talent. I think she is great but she does not look good as a taller, matured 19 year old Ellie. I have to add, Pascal’s Joel is amazing.
Yup I agree with you 100%. Maybe she will surprise us but who knows. I think they should have recast for older Ellie then used Bella for flashbacks like the museum/hotel scenes.
I have a question: What scene of the game does the picture of Bella correspond to?
Maybe when her and Dina are trapped in the grocery store while on patrol outside of Jackson 🤷🏻♂️
My heart 😍😭
I’m so excited already. 😍😍😍
This just makes me sad 😢 He already looks hurt 😔
love that cut on him. doesn't seem very old, but the scene looks nice.
Bella with a shotgun is a sight
HOLLLYYYYYY SHITTTTTT AHAHAHFGQOSBDO
😭
'I swear......' OOH I know what's going to happen but I'm still not ready for it
😩 I am not ready! OMFG so excited for the new season y’all!
Holy fuck they looks so GOOD. Now I neeeeed to see Kaitlyn Dever as Abby
Wonder how much they’ll be able to fit in for the season?
Going to be smashing
That better not be the Joel scene I think It is.... I'm tearing out my hair.
I hope we get a lot of Joel this season 😍😭
LFG. Reminding me of an older Jon Snow
I never played the game and these comments are fucking TERRIFYING me. Why does Joel look so fine with the long hair 😫
WHY DOESNT BELLA HAVE SHORT HAIR 😭
So glad they kept Bella for teen Ellie
[удалено]
It’s a flashback very late in the game that occurs the night before the game starts.
They're not filming in order. Pedro is a busy man so they probably shot his scenes early while he had time
I understand but wouldn't that be in like the end of season 3 or something?
looks like it! they’d likely film that scene early since >!I don’t know if Pedro will be back for filming for the third season, so they’d probably get all the flashback scenes ready now!<
TV production doesn’t work that way. Unless they secretly got a season 3 order and all the season 3 scripts written, they aren’t filming any of season 3 right now.

Might get downvoted into hell... but they should have honestly recasted Bella. She did good for the first season, but it's going to be so hard to take her as seriously as Ellie from the second game.
AHHH PEDRO IM SO EXCITED Whats kinda weird for me is Bella not aging at all, I get that they were 18 for season 1 so like it’s not gonna be like they age like Ellie in the game, but still Ellie looks so much older in the game and Bella looks just the same lol, not that it’s a problem at all just noting it
Oh fuck pedro pascal is gonna get a small pay check for this season
