While there have been heavy rumors and ongoing speculation about The Last of Us Part 3 after Neil Druckmann let slip that he had an outline for the story already in the works, it's still unclear whether the sequel will ever actually happen.
'The Last of Us' Season 3 Is Confirmed
The Last of Us Season 2's finale aired in May 2025. However, Season 3 was actually announced in April 2025, while Season 2 was still on the air. So, it was evident that the story wasn't about to wrap up.
Following Season 2's shocking finale and Emmy buzz, Bella Ramsey will return as Ellie, though Season 3 will focus heavily on Abby's story, played by Kaitlyn Dever. Neil Druckmann has stepped away, leaving Craig Mazin as the sole showrunner. Season 3 will be longer than Season 2, with HBO aiming for a 2027 release.
Part II received acclaim for its gameplay, audio design, score, performances, characters, and visual fidelity, though its narrative and themes divided critics. Discourse became adversarial and the game was review bombed on Metacritic, with some players criticizing the story and characters.
Filming for The Last of Us Season 3 is set to begin on April 1, 2026, in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
We hate to be the bearers of bad news, but yes—Joel really died in The Last of Us. It's not a dream sequence, it's not a twist, it's not any kind of conspiracy: Joel is really dead. And he died brutally and violently.
Ellie is 19 at the beginning of part 2, if she has a summer birthday, then she turns 20 when she gets back to Jackson. The farm is probably over a year in the future based on Dina's pregnancy and JJ's age. Ellie can be presumed to be at least 21/22 by this time.
A third season of HBO's drama series based on The Last of Us Part II video game is in the works, with a few roles shifting within the story as it follows the game.
According to The Last of Us HBO Composer Jake Staley there will be a Season 4 for The Last of Us Show: “There'll be at least two more seasons, no question. At least, that's all I'm gonna say.”
Pedro Pascal fans can relax, it looks like we're getting new Joel scenes in The Last of Us Season 3. The Last of Us aired its second season earlier this year, and while there have been a few concerns regarding the confirmed Season 3, a lot of fans are still eagerly awaiting its return.
Naughty Dog is working on the game, but development is in the early stages and the game has not been officially confirmed. Some reports speculate that the game could launch near the end of the PlayStation 5 era, or on the PlayStation 6 generation, leading to a potential release in 2027 or after.
It's official: *The Last of Us* season 3 will focus on Abby, with co-creator Neil Druckmann confirming Kaitlyn Dever will take center stage. After a polarizing season 2, the series is sticking to the bold narrative structure of the video game—and fans are in for a major perspective shift.
The show will likely come to an end with its third chapter.
Joel doesn't come back from the dead. Instead, the sixth episode explored Joel's past through a series of flashbacks, particularly one that shows him take on the role of protector with his brother Tommy Miller (Gabriel Luna).
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Pascal opened up on the end of his character in the show. He stated, “It was always an understanding that it would stay true to the source material in a specific way and that the, let's say, practical and exclusive obligation would be for season 1.
After Joel's death, Tommy displays a more aggressive side, hunting down Abby and her group in retaliation.
HBO CEO Casey Bloys confirmed in a Variety interview that The Last of Us Season 3 is definitively planned for release in 2027.

Casting Abbey was an interesting challenge. I mean, for starters, we knew from the game that she had this tremendous physical presence.
However, some players took issue with the game's plot, which saw the death of Joel at the hands of Abby. Looking at the user scores for The Last of Us Season 2, we see ratings for the show drop immediately after the episode where Pedro Pascal's character exits the series.
The Last of Us Part II (TLOU2) had a budget of $220m but pulled in $447m in revenue to 2021, that's $227m in profit. And the Remaster isn't even out yet, plus the new HBO Show massively increased its sales too, so final sales and profit will be far higher.
