Fans of the original game will remember the museum section as one of the earlier parts of the game, where Joel and Ellie must make their way through and also deal with a new type of Infected creature in the process. Alongside the new image, actors Troy Baker and Ashley Johnson — who portray Joel and Ellie in the video game franchise — also confirmed that they will appear in the upcoming series, as two characters different from those they voice in the games.
