The 19-year-old actress reported, “It will be a while. I think we’ll probably shoot at the end of this year, or the beginning of next. So it’ll probably be the end of 2024, early 2025.” It seems the second season will as much time as the first season of the HBO adaptation.

Season 2 will cover the events of the second installment of the game. However, the show’s creators revealed that it would differ from 2020’s Game of the Year. But if the HBO adaptation takes major inspiration from the game, fans will be seeing a 19-year-old Ellie, who is closer to the actress’s real-life age. Then Joel Miller would possibly die too in the upcoming season, which might explain the young actress’s hints at less screen time for Pedro Pascal.
