Anyway, it’s been a year and a half already first season of Our last It came to HBO. Things are well underway for a second season, and we’ve known for some time that it won’t premiere until 2025. We still don’t know when to expect it (though an early-year debut isn’t out of the question given that they’re well into filming), but we now know that the second season will only be seven episodes long.
in an extensive interview with Deadline, showrunners Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann (director of Naughty Dog’s two The Last of Us games for various PlayStation consoles) confirmed a shorter season. “The story material we got from Part II is so much more than the story material from the first game, so part of what we had to do from the beginning was figure out how to tell that story between seasons.” Mazin said Deadline. “When you do that, you’re looking for natural tipping points, and as we’ve mentioned it, this season felt like the national tipping point came after seven episodes.”
However, Mazin said season three will likely be “significantly bigger” — we don’t know if that’s in terms of scope or runtime, but considering we’re still at least six months away, it’s an interesting thing to air. second season premiere. And Deadline confirmed that the second season will feature at least one extra-long episode, similar to the 90-minute series premiere and the 70-plus minute episode that focused on Bill and Frank in the first season.
We’ve known for some time that Mazin and Druckmann would spread The end of us part II over several seasons, but even the story sounds like it could be turned into a fourth season. “We feel that it will almost certainly be the case that — as people continue to watch and as we continue to make more television — Season 3 will be significantly bigger. And indeed, the story may demand a Season 4,” he said. Mazin.
When devising a trick The end of us part II was fairly involved, with so many flashbacks and multiple points of view, extending it to three seasons seems a bit much. But according to this interview, Mazin and Druckmann have a clear understanding of where they want each season to begin and end, and what story it will cover. Of course, the show hasn’t been renewed for a third season yet, so it all depends on continued success. Considering it was season one One of HBO’s greatestprobably won’t be a problem.
Finally, Deadline dropped a surprising tidbit about a potential third game in the series — it’s not yet known if one specifically will happen. Indeed, the publication says, “no new part has been taken or developed.” This is a very powerful statement, even though it is not derived from a direct quote or given any real attribution. If true, that means a third The Last of Us game could easily be more than five years away, if it ever happens.
Druckmann confirmed that the show, unlike HBO, will not go beyond what is depicted in video games. Game of Thrones series that gained notoriety outside of the novels it was based on (they didn’t have much choice). “As a fan, I’m excited that there could be a third Our last “As the creator of this television show, there’s no way I’d want our show to go beyond the source material that people have in the world,” he said.
hopefully Deadline Lines crossed over potential third game – with Summer Games Fest just days away, there’s plenty of buzz surrounding what Sony’s first-party studios, including Naughty Dog, plan to announce. The last concrete news we got about the game series was that the planned multiplayer game would be set in the Last of Us universe. cancelled.
