HBO Boss All But Confirms The Last of Us Show Will End With Season 3
The CEO of HBO says he “thinks” The Last of Us showrunner Craig Mazin has planned for the series to end on a third and final season.
HBO's Chairman and CEO Casey Bloys, speaking at the streamer's Emmys afterparty, hinted that the third and final season of The Last of Us show has likely been planned by showrunner Craig Mazin. While Bloys didn't directly confirm the show's closure, he stated, "I think [showrunner] Craig [Mazin] has planned it as the final season."
This isn't a shocking revelation, as Bloys had previously indicated as much in the past year. However, Mazin had previously stated that a fourth season was necessary to wrap up the narrative. The show's first season was praised by critics, while its second season received mixed reviews due to concerns over Bella Ramsey's portrayal of Ellie.
Despite this, Naughty Dog, the creator of the game franchise, has hinted at future projects, though they have stepped back from their involvement in the HBO adaptation for Season 3.
