Filming for The Last of Us season two is expected to start in early 2024. According to the FTIA development list, filming for the second part is scheduled to begin on January 7, 2024. Due to the famous Hollywood actors’ and writers’ strikes, which have now concluded, the filming schedule was postponed. We can presume the show will premiere at the latest in 2025, considering it was not included in HBO’s 2024 slate. At a moment when there were rumblings of a possible strike, star Bella Ramsey, who portrayed Ellie in season 1, suggested something a little different. Of course, the show will modify what happened from the violent and divisive sequel.
HBO announced the conclusion of Us season 2’s greenlighting just two episodes into the first season, so it didn’t take long. There is undoubtedly a sizable fan base, and the company has enough content for several seasons considering the sequel game’s length and ambitious ambition. Lead writer Craig Mazin stated in a conversation that the group had sent HBO the script for episode one and had sketched out “all of season 2.” This was done while the writers’ strike started. He co-executed the program with Neil Druckmann, the man behind the 2013 original game, who stated he had no intention of changing Ramsey’s role because he thought her interpretation of Ellie was perfect.
Imagine The Last of Us’s first season’s Kansas City arc, only bigger and more intense with no room for breathing. Certain things will remain the same while others will change. There is going to be additional and enhanced elements, Mazin stated in an interview, raising the possibility that the next sequel may feature more action-packed sequences involving zombies obsessed with fungus.
According to a story from earlier this month, Ridley Scott’s Gladiator 2 is leading man Pedro Pascal’s top priority project, meaning that all other production will have to accommodate that schedule. Pedro Pascal played Joel in the film.
