The live-action series of The Last of Us continues and now it has been dropped that we would reach a fourth season in Max. Are they stretching the gum?
If you are passionate about video games Naughty Dogsurely The Last of Us be one of your favorite video games of all time. Its plot, mechanics, graphic muscle and characters have captured millions of players, leading to the launch of a second installment that swept the world.
And of course, such a fascinating story could not be limited to the world of video games, so HBO surprised us in January 2023 with the premiere of the live-action of The Last of Us, a post-apocalyptic series that wonderfully adapted the Naughty Dog title. The work of Joel (Pedro Pascal) and the young Ellie (Bella Ramsey) changed everything!
Thanks to this series, whose first season you can see in Max, there were many voices that began to affirm that video games could be adapted to real images in an outstanding way. In fact, a second season is already planned to premiere next year!
In this video below we delve into the concept of The Last of Us’ fidelity to the video game, so don’t miss it. And now, what you were waiting for… Are we really going to get to a fourth season of the series?
Recently, in an interview that we rescued from the media Deadline, Craig Mazin He commented something really interesting about the future of live-action The Last of Us. The writer and producer of the series confessed that he does not believe that they will be able to tell the entire story of the work in two more seasons.
As long as people continue to support the product, they are convinced that the third season will be much bigger than the second (which will cover a total of 7 episodes). In fact, they may very well need a fourth season to tell the story. And the thing is not there…
Mazin assured in the interview that he would not know how to tell the entire story in just three seasons, so they seem to be convinced of the need for a fourth installment to complete the plot as it deserves. What do you think?
Do you think they are stretching the gum too far, wanting to release four seasons to adapt two video games? What if they are preparing the ground to adapt the dreamed video game of The Last of Us Parte III of Neil Druckman? If this dream of the fans comes true, a fourth season of the series on Max would fall short.
