It is the End of an Era for The Last of Us
Given the significant commercial and critical acclaim that the The Last of Us games received, it was logical for HBO to pursue an adaptation of the series. The TV show based on The Last of Us has also thrived, largely due to Druckmann’s involvement. Druckmann has contributed significantly to the series by writing, directing several episodes, and even serving as co-showrunner. However, the creative direction for The Last of Us Season 2 premiered earlier this year, and while Season 3 is in production, it will be developed without Druckmann’s creative influence.
