The community debates the fate of the beloved character

The Last of Us, the TV show produced by HBO, in conjunction with Neil Druckmann, co-creator of the franchise, was a tremendous success in its first season, and of course, attention is now focused on the next chapter. Season 2 has generated high expectations, especially for those who know what happens in the video game sequel, and recently, information has been revealed that has sparked debate about the protagonist.

Pedro Pascal has finished filming his scenes in Season 2 of The Last of Us

According to a report by Daniel Richtman, Pedro Pascal, the actor who portrays Joel in HBO's series The Last of Us, has concluded his participation in the filming of the second season. The news prompted a series of posts on social media about what this could mean, although we won't delve into spoilers for those who aren't aware. It's possible that the ending of Season 2 may align with what happened in the video game; however, Pascal's completion of filming could also refer to his involvement in this chapter with an eye toward the future.

Is Pedro Pascal's work on The Last of Us finished?

We ask this because the series creators, Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann, have expressed their interest in the production spanning more seasons, and there has been speculation that Season 2 of The Last of Us will only cover half of The Last of Us: Part II, leaving the rest for a third season.

Although the sequel has a known event structure, the success Pedro Pascal has had in portraying Joel cannot be denied. Thus, the idea of him leaving the series after this second part doesn't sound as favorable in terms of promotion and business, although the production ensures they will remain faithful to the game.

Additionally, both creative minds behind the series have assured that nothing will be done beyond what is depicted in the video games, meaning once the adaptation of The Last of Us: Part II is completed, fans will have to wait for the release of the third game.

According to the latest promotional materials from the Max platform, Season 2 of The Last of Us will premiere in early 2025.
