Kaitlyn Dever Is Prepared for the Abby-Centric ‘Final of Us’ Season 3

When season three of The Last of Us involves HBO someday in 2027, it’s going to be all about Abby. Season two noticed one star, Joel (Pedro Pascal), murdered, and our different hero, Ellie (Bella Ramsey), seek out his killer. It then ended with that killer, Abby (Kaitlyn Dever), looking and discovering Ellie. However earlier than we might see what transpired between the 2, the show flashed back several days and ended on Abby.
