Which The Last of Us (2023‑ ) is well received, HBO Max has also noticed. After just two episodes, the streaming service decides to take the plunge: the acclaimed series with Pedro Pascal will have a sequel anyway.

I’m honored and frankly overwhelmed that so many people have watched and connected to our retelling of Joel and Ellie’s journey. The collaboration with Craig Mazin, our incredible cast and HBO exceeded my already high expectations. Now we have the absolute pleasure of being able to do it again with season two! On behalf of everyone at Naughty Dog & PlayStation, thank you!
