“The Last of Us” To Begin Filming Season 2 in January 2024

“The Last of Us” To Begin Filming Season 2 in January 2024

We have a THE LAST OF US seaseon two update. According to many sources the start of filming will begin on January 7, 2024 in Vancouver, British Columbia. After the 118 day SAG/AFTRA Strike this is such good news. The bad news is we won’t be getting anything until 2025. My guess is around the same time as season one aired. HBO likes to do that. So we’ll have Bella and Pedro back on our screens then.

The Last of Us: Production List Has Season 2 Filming in January 2024

It appears Neil Druckmann & Craig Mazin’s Pedro Pascal/Bella Ramsey-starring The Last of Us Season 2 will be filming Season 2 in early 2024.

Earlier this month, HBO & Max CEO and Chairman Casey Bloys announced that production on the second season of Neil Druckmann & Craig Mazin’s Pedro Pascal (Joel) & Bella Ramsey (Bella)-starring The Last of Us would begin in early 2024. Since that time, a major event happened that made that time frame much more of a reality. Yup, SAG-AFTRA is poised to ratify a new deal this week – with the 118-day strike officially coming to an end last week. Now, we have an updated production list that went live this week that lists a film shoot for the second season in Vancouver, BC, Canada, beginning on January 7, 2024.

Here’s a look at the production listing – followed by a look back at what we know about the season and the series’ future so far:

The Last of Us: Craig Mazin of Season 2 & Beyond

In an interview with Variety from earlier in the summer, Mazin discussed how a 2025 debut for the second season was still workable (but less & less so the longer the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes continue), confirmed that Season 3 will happen (as long as the viewers keep watching), and addressed the possibility of familiar faces returning in flashbacks (and why they have no plans to mess with that “beautiful” episode).

“The Last of Us” Could Still Make Its 2025 Delivery Date – For Now: “We had a little more flexibility, I think, than normally just because we had to wait a little bit longer any way to line up production with the weather. A lot of what we do is outside, and so we had a schedule that weirdly hasn’t been immediately impacted. But we’re getting pretty close; we can’t keep our original start dates forever, obviously. If these strikes go much longer, we inevitably will have to push, and that hurts us, and it hurts the audience, and it hurts HBO. We all, everybody wants to get back to work; I think everybody that’s actually doing the work, including the network people who are with us on the ground, I think everybody just wants to get this solved. So fingers crossed.”

“The Last of Us” Season 3 Will Happen As Long As Viewers Keep Watching: “It’s going to be more than one season. There’s more story, so this show will not end with Season 2 unless people don’t watch it, and we’ll get canceled. Barring that, we will be doing some things exactly the way they were in the game. We’re going to do other things that are in the game, and we’re gonna do some things that are in the game, but we’re gonna do them differently in our own method. No matter if you have played the game or not. You will be surprised as the season unfolds. We have some interesting twists and turns.”

Could Melanie Lynskey, Storm Reid & Others Return via Flashbacks? “There’s always a chance for everything. With us, you never know, and we obviously don’t confine ourselves by timelines. People who are dead sometimes reappear, and sometimes we meet people that we didn’t even know, and then we find out that they are somebody.”

Mazin on Why There Won’t Be Another Bill (Nick Offerman) & Frank (Murray Bartlett) Episode: “What you won’t see is, for instance, another very special episode with Bill and Frank; we aren’t going to milk it. When we do something that we think is beautiful, we let it be as it is and find other beautiful things to do.”

“The Last of Us” Season 2 Ready To Go After Strikes Says Neil Druckmann

“The Last of Us” Season 2 Ready To Go After Strikes Says Neil Druckmann

According to Neil Druckmann, creator of the game and co-showrunner of the series, THE LAST OF US season two will be ready to go as soon as the current WGO and SAG-AFTRA strike is over. This is great news for the show. Rest below.

The Last Of Us Season 2 Is “Ready To Go” When Strikes End, Neil Druckmann Says

“As far as the next game at Naughty Dog, I can’t say anything.”

Naughty Dog’s Neil Druckmann has teased that The Last of Us Season 2 has been fully outlined, though production cannot actually begin until the ongoing Hollywood strikes come to an end. In the same interview with Entertainment Weekly, Druckmann was asked about Naughty Dog’s next game, but he didn’t give anything away.

“We’ve outlined all of Season 2 and we’re ready to go as soon as the strike ends,” Druckmann said, referring to the ongoing writer and actor strikes.

This follows on from what showrunner Craig Mazin recently said, when he explained that Season 2 was already mapped out. Mazin said the first episode was written and sent to HBO, just hours before the strike was called.

Going back to Druckmann, he was asked directly about a third Last of Us game, but he didn’t give anything away. “As far as the next game at Naughty Dog, I can’t say anything,” he said. “My comms director over there will slaughter me.”

Naughty Dog confirmed in March this year that it had chosen its next game. Druckmann acknowledged the hype for a potential Last Of Us Part 3, but stopped short of confirming if that will indeed be the team’s next project.

In addition to working on the Last of Us TV series and the next Naughty Dog game, Druckmann is consulting on the Universal Studios haunted house attraction themed around The Last of Us.

“My job is really strange, I’m given feedback on this theme park thing, I’m working on the TV show, and I’m working on another game, so I’m just kind of jumping around on different projects,” Druckmann said.

Before the onset of the strikes, HBO management said The Last of Us Season 2 would arrive in 2025. The Hollywood strikes will almost certainly delay the start of production on Season 2, and that could mean the premiere date might move, too.

Season 2 will cover some of the events of The Last of Us: Part II, and the expected Season 3 will go further.

Regarding the strikes, Mazin previously said he was confident that labor would prevail. “This will end, and when it ends, it will end to the satisfaction of the Writers Guild. I am absolutely convinced of that. We have no other choice,” he said.

This is the first time since 1960 that unions representing writers and actors have been on strike at the same time. The SAG-AFTRA strike began during the London premiere of Oppenheimer, and actors walked out of a screening when the strike was called. The WGA strike began earlier, starting in May.

Writers and actors are seeking, among other things, better pay, viewership-based streaming residuals, and protections against artificial intelligence.
