The Last of Us season 2<\/a> is just days away, but it seems that HBO doesn\u2019t want to leave everyone in suspense about what\u2019s next for one of its most popular series. The network announced on Wednesday that the series has been renewed for season 3 via a short video teaser.<\/p>\n

For those that may be surprised about a third season of the show, despite there not being a third game, showrunners Neil Druckmann and Craig Mazin have been teasing this decision for a while. In fact, in 2023, Mazin and Druckmann said<\/a> that the events of that game could take two seasons at the very least to complete in the TV adaptation. While that may sound like a lot, it\u2019s worth remembering that the game is some where between 20-30 hours long, and three seasons would bring the TV version to a similar runtime.<\/p>\n

But before we get too far ahead of ourselves with what season 3 might be about, we\u2019ll have to make it through the second season first. The Last of Us season 2 begins Sunday at 9 p.m. EDT, and will consist of seven episodes. We don\u2019t know the exact format of the season just yet, especially given how complicated the game is, but we do know that Kaitlyn Dever is set to show up as Abby<\/a>, and that Jeffrey Wright will reprise his role as Isaac from the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Last of Us season 2 is just days away, but it seems that HBO doesn\u2019t want to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":10797,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3937],"tags":[77,12,6960,989,382,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-10796","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-sci-fi","11":"tag-the-last-of-us","12":"tag-tv","13":"tag-uk","14":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114319428732478631","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10796","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10796"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10796\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10797"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10796"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10796"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10796"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
