HBO The Last of Us The live-action series is currently filming its second season. First impression What we have seen Photo set According to information circulating online, the second season is likely to cover the earliest part of Ellie’s revenge tour. The Last of Us Part IIFrom what we’re hearing, HBO is considering expanding the second series not just to one or two seasons, but perhaps even three.
In an interview deadlineShowrunners Neil Druckmann and Craig Mazin have confirmed that the second season will consist of seven episodes, one of which will be “fairly long” but “not feature-length,” Mazin said. This is two episodes fewer than the first season’s nine episodes, which covered the entire events of the first series. The number was the result of “careful consideration” by the duo. Part IIThe story will unfold over multiple seasons.
“The story material we got was Part II “This game has a lot more story material than we had in the first game, so part of what we had to do from the beginning was figure out how to tell that story over the course of the season,” Muzzin said. deadline“Then you look for a natural break, and with the plan for this season, it felt like the natural break was after the seventh episode.”
Anyone who has played The Last of Us Part II It’s unclear what that “division” is. If the sequel is split into multiple seasons, it would make sense for season two to end with Ellie’s three days in Seattle. That could mean season three will focus entirely on Abby, the game’s second main character. But that’s not all. Part IIbecause there’s a third “chapter” in that game that could potentially expand into a fourth season. That structure is mostly speculation on my part, but it’s not impossible, considering Druckmann and Mazin expect the show to eventually become a four-season series.
“I don’t think two seasons is enough to tell the story. [2 and 3] “Because we’re taking our time and going down an interesting path that we did a little bit in season one,” Mazin said. “As long as audiences keep watching and we keep making TV shows, we feel like season three will definitely be significantly bigger. In fact, story-wise, season four may be necessary.”
No matter how many seasons it goes on, it seems like HBO’s dramatization won’t be a 1:1 recreation. Part IIBut Mazin deadline Going forward, seasons may be shorter, allowing more time to tell stories. The Last of Us Part IIRather than condensing its storyline into one season, it will unfold over the next few years.
“I want to reassure everyone that if this season is going to be a little shorter than the first season, it’s not because we have less time to tell the story, it’s because we want to tell it more,” Mazin said. “The story we’re telling is much bigger than in the first season, there’s a lot more that happens, it’s a lot harder to make, but honestly, we want every episode to feel like its own blockbuster.”
While they haven’t explicitly confirmed there will be a fourth season, Mazin and Druckmann say they have the show planned out through to its conclusion. Part IISo, for now, they seem pretty confident that’s the plan.
“The way we did it was to envision multiple seasons and then really explore season two,” Druckmann said. “It echoes what Craig is saying: there’s no padding, it’s all intentional. There’s always a goal to aim for, and we never stray for the sake of straying. It’s always about saying something bigger about these characters and themes.”
