The Last of Us season 3: What to Expect
The Last of Us, one of HBO’s most popular shows, has just concluded its second season with a bang. The latest installment delved into the theme of revenge at any cost, as our main characters navigated not only the infected but also mysterious cults and military factions.
The final episode of season 2, which aired on May 25, delivered an explosive ending that will have a lasting impact on the show. HBO greenlit season 3 of The Last of Us before season 2 even aired, but fans are eagerly awaiting its return.
When could The Last of Us season 3 be released?
Fans may have to wait a bit for season 3 of The Last of Us. Isabela Merced, who plays Dina, mentioned in an interview with Variety that production for the next season is expected to begin in 2026. If the production timeline follows that of season 2, we can anticipate that season 3 won’t hit screens until 2027. The show is expected to be released on HBO Max in the US and on Sky Atlantic and Now in the UK.
What is the plot of The Last of Us season 3?
Warning: Major spoilers for The Last of Us season 2 ahead.
The conclusion of season 2 revealed that season 3 will focus on Abby’s perspective in Seattle, rather than Ellie’s. Abby’s story will explore her viewpoint on the events that transpired in the city, including the war between the W.L.F. and the Seraphites. As Ellie seeks revenge for Joel’s death, Abby’s loyalties and alliances will be put to the test.
Season 3 will delve deeper into the complexities of the war in Seattle, Abby’s relationships with her comrades, and the aftermath of the final showdown between Ellie and Abby. While Ellie’s story may take a backseat for a season, viewers can expect to see glimpses of her journey intertwined with Abby’s narrative.
Who could star in The Last of Us season 3?
Assuming there are no recasts, the main cast members expected to return for season 3 include Kaitlyn Dever as Abby, Bella Ramsey as Ellie, Jeffrey Wright as Isaac, and others. Even characters who have met their demise in Ellie’s storyline may make appearances through Abby’s perspective.
The introduction of new characters, such as Lev, a former member of the Seraphites, may also be expected in season 3.
