It’s arguably a better picture of what the show will be beyond the nightmarish imagery we saw in the first trailer, given not just that the show will presumably largely deal with the immediate viral outbreak that rapidly targets people with Y chromosomes (outside of, inexplicably, Yorick and his pet monkey Ampersand) in its first episode or two before moving on to the world left behind beyond it. And there, we get to see that not everything is going to be necessarily grim and grave, especially when one of the last surviving men of the world is as sarcastic as Yorick can be in Brian K. Vaughan and Pia Guerra’s original comic.
Y: The Last Man, which also stars Dredd’s Olivia Thirlby and Justice League’s Diane Lane as Hero and Jennifer Brown, Yorick’s sister and mother (turned President of the United States post-virus) respectively, is set to hit FX on Hulu on September 13 in the U.S., and Disney+’s Star package in international regions where Hulu is unsupported, from September 22.
