‘The Last of Us’ Season Finale Breakdown: Every Easter Egg and Secret
The Last of Us season finale begins with a scene that isn’t in the games, although it was alluded to. It’s the birth of our hero Ellie, and it features a really fun Easter egg from The Last of Us games. Ellie’s mom is played by Ashley Johnson — who voiced Ellie in the The Last of Us games. So she brought Ellie to life in the real world, and she gave life to Ellie in the world of The Last of Us TV series.
