While the remaster of The Last of Us 2 has just been released, what do we know about Season 2 of the HBO series starring Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsay?
It was in January 2023 that the whole world discovered television for the first time HBO series The Last of Usshowing Pedro Pascal and Bela Ramsey as Joel and Eli respectively. If this first season was really successful, the continuation of the adventures of our two protagonists should provide fans with many more exciting stories.
What to expect from season 2 of The Last of Us?
We’re not going to hide it from you but we’ve known it for months Season 2 of The Last of Us will be darker than ever. If new characters like Abby appear, Ellie and Joel will face events that will change the course of history and according to the showrunners, anything can happen, so understand that any character here can go through there.
In addition, if season 1 lasted for 9 episodes, here, according to the words of Craig Mazin, this season 2 could actually turn into two seasons: in fact, the story of the second opus is much longer and more complicated because it is made since then. Two points of view, Eli’s and Ab’s. So, according to third episode director Peter Hore, we may have one season for Ellie and another for Abby.
Finally, the Infected should be more present than ever during this upcoming arc. According to Craig Mazin and Neil Druckman, “It’s entirely possible that there will be many more infections later. And perhaps of different types.”
Star-studded cast for season 2 of The Last of Us
Here is some obvious news but which at one point still raises questions: Yes, we will be seeing Bella Ramsey in the role of Ellie for this season 2 of The Last of Us, despite some negative criticism the young actress endured. We must admit that this is exciting news because what he showed in the first season was simply incredible. Bella Ramsay was able to carry the role of Ellie to perfection and we can’t wait to see how she reacts to Abby’s arrival…
And speaking of Abby, we finally have a face to represent her character! We’re obviously not going to spoil the events of The Last of Us: Part 2 during the game, but Abby has a more important role than ever and will literally change the course of history. Like her or not, she’s impressive, and Caitlin Dever was recently confirmed for the cast. So, we will be glad to find her with Bela Ramsay and Pedro Pascal.
Still in the casting, another name has also been confirmed, that of Isabella Merced. It will feature none other than Dina, Eli’s girlfriend, and according to Craig Mazin, it was necessary to find someone “warm, bright, wild, funny, moral, dangerous and instantly adorable” to embody the character, and Isabella. Merced was a perfect match for Dina.
Finally, we’ll also have the pleasure of finding actor Young Mazzino to play Jesse. As we know, the latter has an important role in the story, but we won’t spoil the events for you.
When will The Last of Us season 2 be available?
A question burns on our lips: When will season 2 of The Last of Us series be available? ? Well, if the first appeared a year ago, we will have to be patient again. Indeed, HBO has announced that season 2 will be available on the platform in 2025.
Unfortunately, we don’t have much details but we strongly hope that it will appear early this year 2025.
