Next month, The Last of Us may take home a handful of Emmy Awards for the HBO original series. However, showrunner Craig Mazin is already looking ahead to working on Season 3. And for anyone who felt Season 2 was too short, Mazin promises that Season 3 will rectify that.
While speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, Mazin declined to say whether the pacing of Season 3 will mirror Season 2. However, he did say, “Season 3 will be longer than Season 2. Season 3 will be more on par with Season 1. More bang for the buck.”
Mazin also acknowledged his former co-showrunner Neil Druckmann, who recently announced his departure from the series. According to Mazin, there won’t be a drastic change to the show due to Druckmann’s absence.
