When asked about his banjo-playing cameo at the start of the game, he mentioned that in a “new edition” of the game, players will be able to interact with him even more. During an appearance on the Blender podcast, composer Gustavo Santaolalla seemed to let it slip that a newer version of the Last of Us Part 2 is in production.

We know what we're gonna do in terms of costume and makeup and hair, but more importantly, we also know the spirit and soul of the actor.The composer for The Last of Us Part 2 may have spoiled the existence of an upcoming PS5 remaster for Naughty Dog’s 2020 game. We might still force her to come back to season 2."Ĭraig Mazin, the showrunner of the series, also added, "We are making it with Bella. "And even then, we're not sure we would grant her that. "The only way we would ever, ever consider re-casting Bella is if she said, 'I don't want to work with you guys anymore,'" Neil Druckmann said, according to EW. However, considering the fact that Bella Ramsey is actually 19 IRL, the show's co-creators have confirmed that she's set to return unless she changes her mind about coming back. Ellie will be 19 instead of 14 like in the first game/season. No matter what, we'll definitely see Pedro Pascal back as Joel and right now Bella Ramsey is set to return as Ellie. It will be the show that Neil and I want to make." Will the cast return for a second season? But it's going to be different and it will be its own thing. "Sometimes it will be different radically, and sometimes it will be different at all. "It will be different just as this season was different ," Craig Mazin said in a press conference, according to EW. Just like how there were changes in the show's first season, there will also be some changes as they adapt the second game into the The Last of Us' future seasons. "It’s more than one season," Neil Druckmann told GQ UK, although they wouldn't reveal how many.

We won't say any more than that, but the creators have said that they are trying to keep in mind everything that happens in Part II when they move on to season 2. The game takes place five years later and follows Joel and Ellie's lives as they deal with the aftermath of their journey. Which means season 2 will likely contain a small time jump to cover The Last of Us Part II. That's the big question! The first season completely covered all of part 1, so we definitely won't be seeing more of that story. Overall, the series got 24 total nominations and was only behind fellow HBO drama Succession. And they have some big competition too in the Best Drama Series and guest actor/actress categories. The TV series also become the first live-action video game adaptation to get Emmy nominations during its 2023 ceremony with both Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey getting lead acting nominations for their roles.
