The Last of Us Season 2 Premiere Date Confirmed

The Last of Us Season 2 is set to premiere on April 13, a date eagerly awaited by fans. HBO has officially announced that the upcoming season will be available on both HBO and Max in the United States. In India, viewers can expect to watch the series on JioHotstar, which holds the rights for HBO content.

This new season will be based on elements from The Last of Us Part II, the celebrated sequel of the original video game. Co-creator Craig Mazin has previously indicated that the storyline of the game will span several seasons, thus this installment will cover only a segment of it. Unlike the first season, which consisted of nine episodes, Season 2 will feature seven episodes, making it a bit shorter.

New Characters in Season 2

Set five years after the conclusion of the first season, the forthcoming episodes will introduce significant characters from the game, including:

• Kaitlyn Dever as Abby, a crucial character with her own profound journey.
• Isabela Merced as Dina, an integral part of Ellie’s narrative.

Along with the announcement of the premiere date, HBO has unveiled new character posters showcasing both returning and incoming cast members. For those keen to catch a glimpse, the debut trailer is already available for viewing.
