Season 2 of The Last of Us series will cover the events of TLOU 2 but that won’t be enough to tell the whole story. And it looks like HBO has long-term plans for this adaptation.
The Last of Us series was an absolute hit. Critics as spectators, players as well as the uninitiated have all been conquered by the adaptation of Naughty Dog and HBO. Millions of spectators are now impatiently awaiting season 2, which was quickly ordered by the American giant in view of the first figures. As we know, it will take a little patience before discovering the rest of the adventures of Joel and Ellie on the small screen. Still, HBO undoubtedly has big plans for the series. The Last of Us. And the last statements of the showrunner should please fans of the license.
More than three seasons for the series The Last of Us?
Season 2 of the series The Last of Us is particularly awaited at the turn. After the triumph of the first episodes, the players will obviously not let any mistake pass. So when the cast and production start teasing some deviations from the source material or possible changes to a character’s fate, the concern mounts. Craig Mazin, showrunner of the series, wanted to reassure them. “ It wouldn’t make sense to stick very faithfully to the first game and then take a very different path. “, he recently said. But to stick to The Last of Us Part 2, they will need more than one season and maybe even more than two.
It’s no longer a secret that the events of TLOU 2 will be divided into several seasons. It was then almost certain that they would be divided into two seasons, but the série The Last of Us is set to last longer than that. During a panel at the NAB event in Las Vegas, the showrunner stated that there is ” many stories to tell (…) Our objective is not to settle for just one more season. We should stick around for a while. »
We can therefore assume that the series The Last of Us should have at least three seasons, but the words of Craig Mazin suggest that there will be many more. Will they all just cover the story of ELEPHANT Part 2 or is Naughty Dog working in secret on The Last of Us 3 to continue to ride on the success of the adaptation and the license in general? The mystery remains for the moment whole, even if we know that the Californian studio has already made a decision as to the future of the license.
