HBO’s The Last of Us is returning for a second season, but when can fans expect it to arrive? We still don’t know for sure, but actress Bella Ramsey, who plays Ellie, has said Season 2 might not land until 2025.
Appearing on The Jonathan Ross Show (via IGN), Ramsey said filming on Season 2 should begin at the end of 2023 or the start of 2024. Given that, Ramsey said Season 2 should arrive at “the end of 2024, early 2025.” Of course, plans can and often do change. Nothing is certain, and HBO has yet to provide any official confirmation on when filming will begin for Season 2 and when it will air.
Before this, Joel actor Pedro Pascal said filming on Season 2 could start later in 2023.
Season 2 isn’t expected to be the show’s last, either. Game director Neil Druckmann, who also works on the show, plainly stated that Season 3 is also in the works. This is no big surprise, though, as both Druckmann and showrunner Craig Mazin have said the events of The Last of Us Part II will not be squeezed into one season.
The Last of Us reached more viewers than House of the Dragon, so it’s clearly a very big deal for HBO. For more, check out GameSpot’s rundown of everything we know about The Last of Us Season 2.
