HBO's critically acclaimed The Last of Us series is slated for a four-season run, according to an executive.
Francesca Orsi of HBO indicated that a four-season arc is the current projection for the hit show, although she emphasized the absence of a finalized plan. "While I can't definitively confirm it, it's looking like three seasons beyond this one, and then we're done," Orsi stated in an interview with Deadline.
Regarding the anticipated Season 2 premiere in April 2025, Orsi hinted at intriguing developments: "The various factions vying for survival will reveal themselves, showcasing a captivating survivalist group with a unique and distinct presentation." She added, "Their wardrobe and makeup significantly differentiate them from ordinary characters."

There's still time to catch up before Season 2's April premiere. Unlike Season 1, which fully adapted the first game, Season 2 will expand upon The Last of Us Part II over multiple episodes, utilizing a "natural breakpoint" after seven episodes.
Season 2 will introduce several new cast members, including Kaitlyn Dever as Abby, Danny Ramirez as Manny, and Tati Gabrielle as Mel. Catherine O'Hara's role remains undisclosed.
IGN's review of The Last of Us Season 1 lauded it as "a stunning adaptation that will thrill newcomers and enrich the experience of those familiar with Joel and Ellie's journey," awarding it a 9/10 rating.
