Ready to jump into a new episode of The Last of Us? After last week’s cliffhanger, I’m sure you are. We’re inching closer and closer to the finale of the first season, and Episode 7, “Left Behind,” premieres this Sunday night. This week, we’ll get to take a peek at Ellie’s (Bella Ramsey) life before she met Joel (Pedro Pascal) when she was training in FEDRA’s military school. When we first met Ellie in the premiere, she was already with the Fireflies, so it’ll be interesting to see what happened before that.
We’ll also meet a character named Riley (Storm Reid), who fans of the original The Last of Us video game series will know from the expansion Left Behind. Unfortunately, we shouldn’t expect much from Joel this week, but we’re sure the episode will be compelling anyway.
The acting on The Last of Us has been absolutely fantastic and won’t change in Episode 7, “Left Behind.” Before tuning in on Sunday, check out the preview here:
As you get ready to throw on your comfortable clothes and enjoy the new episode Sunday night, you might be wondering how long “Left Behind” will run. Is it a supersized episode this time around?
The Last of Us Episode 7 run time

The ninth episode, which premieres on Sunday, March 12, will serve as the season 1 finale, but try not to be too disappointed. The Last of Us season 2 is already confirmed!
