Nuked Hey there, my tech-loving followers! Today, I’ve got some exciting news for all you fans of The Last of Us. Get ready to mark your calendars because the second season of HBO’s hit show is set to debut in 2025. Yes, you heard it right, we’ll have to wait a bit longer, but trust me, it’ll be worth it!
Now, let me fill you in on the details. A new teaser recently dropped, thanks to our buddy Max, and not only did it confirm the release date for the second season, but it also gave us a sneak peek into HBO’s lineup for 2024. Talk about a double whammy!
But why the delay, you may ask? Well, showrunner Craig Mazin spilled the beans and revealed that production will kick off on February 12th, 2024. It turns out that the Writers Guild of America and SAG-AFTRA strikes caused a little hiccup in the original plans. Nevertheless, fear not, my friends, because work on the second season is still going strong.
Believe it or not, an outline for the upcoming season has already been prepared, and they even managed to submit the script for the first episode before the strike hit. Talk about dedication! So rest assured, this delay won’t dampen our excitement.
Now let’s talk about what we can expect from this highly anticipated season. Brace yourselves because we’re going a few years ahead from where we left off in the first season. Rumor has it that it will be an adaptation of The Last of Us Part II video game. And guess what? A remastered version of that game is making its way to PlayStation 5 on January 19th, 2024. Talk about perfect timing!
And the good news doesn’t end there. Our beloved Bella Ramsey, who plays Ellie, and Pedro Pascal, our favorite Joel, will be returning for the second season. But wait, there’s more! The role of Abby Anderson has reportedly already been cast. Who could it be? We’re all on the edge of our seats, waiting to find out!
But hold on, there’s more to this teaser than just The Last of Us. Max also gave us a glimpse into some other exciting shows coming our way in 2025. Get ready to be thrilled by Euphoria, The White Lotus, And Just Like That, and even a prequel series to Stephen King’s It called Welcome to Derry. It’s like a buffet of entertainment!
Oh, and let’s not forget about the shows that will be gracing our screens in 2024. We got sneak peeks from The Penguin, a new Batman spinoff show, as well as Curb Your Enthusiasm, Tokyo Vice, and Hacks. And if that wasn’t enough, we also caught a glimpse of the second season of the Game of Thrones spinoff House of the Dragon. Summer 2024 can’t come soon enough!
So there you have it, folks. The second season of The Last of Us may be a little further away than we hoped, but with all the exciting shows coming our way in the meantime, we’ll have plenty to keep us entertained. Stay tuned for more updates and keep that tech-loving spirit alive!
