Also, there are other updates, like the fact that TLOU will be covered in more than one season. So, as the second season is on the cards, this information is a no-brainer. Also, the series will slowly deviate from its main source, which is the game, to maintain suspense and provide more surprises for the fans.
Production Update of The Last of Us Season 2
But the sad thing is that the production is still delayed as the actors’ strike is still in full swing all over the USA. Initially, the casting was also stopped because of this strike. As of now, HBO is planning on starting filming the second season of The Last of Us early next year in Vancouver.
