Joining Deadline’s Contenders TV event, ‘The Last of Us’ co-creators and star Bella Ramsey reflected on the unexpected success of Season 1. Creator Craig Mazin mentioned, “I don’t think any of us expected it was going to be what it was.” The hope was to please both fans of the game and new viewers.
Season 2, set five years after Season 1, shows Joel and Ellie at odds as they navigate life in Jackson, Wyoming. While the first season was based on the first game, the story of the second game is too expansive for just one season. Ramsey and the creators spoke about the “shift in the relationship” between Ellie and Joel, hinting at the complexities viewers can expect.
The anticipation for Season 2 is high, and the team behind the show seems excited to explore new dynamics and challenges. Stay tuned for more updates as the release date approaches!
