The second season of HBO Max series The Last of Us is naturally highly anticipated thanks to the brilliant first season. But as you may know, there is a writer’s strike (by the Writers Guild of America) that has already affected several series, and now The Last of Us: Season 2 has been affected.
Casting for the second season has come to a complete halt as showrunner and writer Craig Mazin joined the strike. Series creator Neil Druckmann has reportedly also paused his work on the series.
The filming of the second season was expected to start early next year, and there is still time to do so if everything is resolved fairly soon. Otherwise, there may be delays in production as everyone’s schedules have to be rearranged.
