Warning: This article contains SPOILERS for The Last of Us episode 7
Itās the time of the preacher next week on The Last of Us. And a highly dubious one, at that. If you havenāt played the game, we wonāt spoil much about David, but Ellieās absolutely right to mistrust him. In The Last of Us episode 8 promo, we get our first look at Scott Shepherdās portrayal, along with original Joel actor Troy Baker as James, one of Davidās fellow scavengers. After seeing Ellieās first real experience with loss in episode 7, it looks like weāre about to see her really take it out on somebody next time.
Take a look in the player below:

Meanwhile, this weekās āInside the Episodeā takes a look at Ellieās last night with best friend Riley (Storm Reid), and how that directly parallels and affects her current situation with Joel. Because HBO Max is being super serious about this being a different kind of adaptation, nobody notes the comedy of video game characters of course thinking a video arcade is the coolest place ever. But itās there, as Ellie plays Mortal Kombat IIās Raiden like so many have played her in The Last of Us. The adaptation of the āLeft Behindā DLC content will prove more prescient when season 2 arrives.
