The wait for “The Last of Us” season 2 is starting to feel tortuous. Until now fans have had to console themselves with casting news and leaked images from the show’s sets, but we now have some firm details on how the season will be structured from its creative team.
During a lengthy interview with Deadline, Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann, “The Last of Us” TV show’s co-showrunners, confirmed that the second season of the hugely popular HBO show will consist of seven episodes. This is a drop from “The Last of Us” season 1, which comprised nine episodes, but the pair notes one Season 2 episode will be “quite big” in length, which will hopefully make up for the drop.
