Judging by how the sequence has been marketed, in addition to early buzz, it could seem that HBO’s “The Last of Us” is about to be a monster hit for the premium community. Based on one of the vital beloved online game franchises as we speak, “The Last of Us” may grow to be the following large franchise for HBO. Well, in all probability not. You see, even when the present is a large hit, it seems to be just like the creators aren’t that on this turning into a long-running present.

In a brand new interview with THR, sequence co-creators Neil Druckmann (who’s chargeable for the online game franchise) and Craig Mazin (who beforehand created the acclaimed “Chernobyl”) defined that “The Last of Us” isn’t anticipated to stay round very lengthy in any respect. In truth, it may simply be two seasons.

It’s in all probability not an excessive amount of of a spoiler to say that the primary season of “The Last of Us” covers the primary sport within the franchise. That makes complete sense from a storytelling perspective. However, the issue is there are solely two video games within the sequence, up to now, and although Druckmann says “there’s more story to tell” sooner or later, he and Mazin aren’t concerned about creating new tales only for the sequence.

“We have no plans to tell any stories beyond adapting the games,” Druckmann stated. “We won’t run into the same issue as ‘Game of Thrones’ since ‘Part II’ doesn’t end on a cliffhanger.”

Without entering into spoilers, “The Last of Us Part II,” which might doubtless comprise the second season of the TV sequence, mainly ends the story and affords a reasonably definitive conclusion. And with no third sport instantly on the best way (video video games take years to make), it’s doubtless that “The Last of Us” will come to an finish after Season 2. This isn’t a foul factor, added Mazin.

“I don’t have any interest in a spinning-plates-go-on-forever show,” Mazin stated. “When it becomes a perpetual motion machine, it just can’t help but get kind of … stupid. Endings mean everything to me.”

When you consider zombie sequence, which “The Last of Us” most undoubtedly is, you may’t assist however take into consideration “The Walking Dead.” Many followers, even essentially the most diehard, would agree that “The Walking Dead” has run for manner too many seasons, and it has spawned a number of spinoffs. Sure, it’s making some huge cash for AMC, however the storytelling has suffered immensely. Don’t count on that to be an issue with “The Last of Us.”

Granted, “The Last of Us Part II” (the sport) did characteristic a narrative that shocked followers of the primary sport and led to Druckmann getting loopy threats. We all know TV audiences aren’t that loopy, proper? …proper? Regardless, for Season 2 to be a factor, Season 1 must be actually standard. So, we’ll see how “The Last of Us” does when it debuts on HBO on January 15.
