The hit horror videogame ‘Last Of Us’ adaptation has finally received a release date for its second season
The Last Of Us 2 has just announced an official release date for its second season.
Mark your calendars for April 13th, as the horror series starring Pedro Pascal will drop on HBO Max.
The series is based on the cult classic game of the same name and so far, fans have been loving it.
After months of anticipation and speculation, HBO has confirmed what eager fans have been waiting for.
The sophomore season continues the post-apocalyptic journey of Joel (Pascal) and Ellie (Bella Ramsey) as they navigate a world ravaged by the Cordyceps fungal infection that transformed humanity.
Following the critical acclaim of season one, which earned multiple Emmy nominations and praise for its faithful yet nuanced adaptation of Naughty Dog’s beloved game, expectations for the second season couldn’t be higher.
Showrunners Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann have promised that the new season will explore the controversial narrative territory of ‘The Last of Us Part II’ game.
Although they have hinted at potentially expanding certain storylines, as they did in the first season.
New cast additions include Kaitlyn Dever as Abby and Isabela Merced as Dina, characters central to the second game’s complex moral narrative.
Production wrapped earlier this month after filming in locations across Canada, including the insane natural beauty of British Columbia.
The visual effects team is said to have been working to perfect the show’s distinctive infected creatures, promising for a spectacle of the season.
For those who are fans of the series but perhaps haven’t played the game, this story elaborates on the human element of the apocalypse, where the most dangerous creatures are ourselves.
The hype around the ‘The Last Of Us‘ is massive.
And given the viewership numbers of the first season, making it the network’s second most-watched series since 2010, it’s not very surprising.
