HBO's acclaimed The Last of Us series is slated for a four-season run, according to an executive.
Francesca Orsi of HBO indicated that a four-season arc is the current projection for the hit show, though she emphasized that no definitive plan is finalized. "While I can't confirm it definitively, it's looking like three seasons beyond this one, and then we're finished," Orsi told Deadline.
Regarding the highly anticipated Season 2 premiere in April 2025, Orsi hinted at intriguing developments: "We'll see the emergence of various factions vying for survival, revealing themselves as a compelling survivalist group with a unique and distinct presentation." She added, "Their wardrobe and makeup will set them apart from typical characters."

There's still time to catch up before Season 2's April premiere. Unlike Season 1, which adapted the first game entirely, Season 2 will span The Last of Us Part II over multiple episodes, utilizing a "natural breakpoint" after seven episodes.
Season 2 introduces several new cast members: Kaitlyn Dever as Abby, Danny Ramirez as Manny, and Tati Gabrielle as Mel. Catherine O'Hara's role remains undisclosed.
IGN's review of The Last of Us Season 1 lauded the show as "a stunning adaptation, thrilling newcomers and enriching the experience for those familiar with Joel and Ellie's journey," earning a 9/10 rating.
