The Last of Us could run for as long as four seasons according to new comments from a HBO bo🌳ss.

Francesca Orsi, EVP and head of drama🐭 at HBO, outlined possible future plans for the Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann-led adaptati꧟on in an interview with .

"We don’t have a complete or final plan, but I think it’s looking like four seasons," Or꧙si said.

While it's not set in stone, it appears🦄 the roadmap ahead for The Last of Us indicates that three more seasons is enough to wrap everything up.

As Orsi explained, "I wouldn’t want to confi🔯rm [four seasons], but it’s looking like this season and then two more seasons after th🍎is and we’re done.”

In case there was ever any doubt, that surely puts paid to the idea that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Last of Us season 2 will adapt the entirety of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Last of Us Part 2.

The 2020 game, which encompassed multiple playable characters and viewpoints as Ellie went on a wide-ranging revenge tour of America, is making up the basis of the upcoming season. What we don't know, however, is its endpoint this year – and wh༒ether it will stretch out past the events of t🙈he game into possible The Last of Us Part 3 territory.

Previously, Mazin told Deadline that the third season will be "significantly larger" than the seven-episode season 2, while "the story may reไquire season 4."

Taking place years after the original♌ season, The Last of Us season 2 features several newcomers, in👍cluding Kaitlyn Dever's Abby, Isabela Merced's Dina, and Young Mazino's Jesse.

The series will air weekly on HBO from April 2025, though fans think they've already 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:zeroed in on the exact release date.
