🧟♂️ HBO Locks In Season 3 Of ‘The Last of Us‘

Let’s goooo! HBO just confirmed that “The Last of Us” is getting a third season, and Season 2 hasn’t even premiered yet!
The Emmy-winning series returns Sunday, April 13 at 9 PM ET/PT on HBO and will stream on Max.
Season 2 picks up five years after the emotional rollercoaster of Season 1, and from everything we’ve seen and heard—it’s about to be wild.
👀 What’s Going Down in Season 2?
Joel and Ellie are back, but things are… complicated.
The world around them is even more chaotic, and their bond is being tested in ways we haven’t seen before.
Who’s Returning:
- Pedro Pascal as Joel
- Bella Ramsey as Ellie
- Gabriel Luna as Tommy
- Rutina Wesley as Maria
Who’s New:
- Kaitlyn Dever as Abby
- Isabela Merced, Young Mazino, Tati Gabrielle, Jeffrey Wright, and more
- Comedy queen Catherine O’Hara is even popping in as a guest star
Critics are already calling it “television at its peak” and “one of 2025’s best seasons of TV”—and it hasn’t even aired yet.
🎬 Why This Renewal Is A Big Deal
This kind of early renewal is rare—and it says a lot about the heat behind the series.
HBO exec Francesca Orsi called Season 2 a “masterful follow-up,” and both Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann are proud of what they’ve built.
Craig said the new season “exceeded even our most ambitious goals,” while Neil added that bringing this world to life has been a “career highlight.”
And with this creative team? We know Season 3 is going to eat.
