The filmmaker is happy to watch the series but don't count on him getting involved.

Filmmaker John Carpenter is known for telling terrifying tales on the big screen, but in the 13 years since the release of The Ward, Carpenter has been spending a significant chunk of time immersing himself in all the latest video games. The filmmaker has previously expressed his love for The Last of Us games, and it sounds as though he is just as big a fan of the HBO adaptation, as he noted it was"fabulous," to the point that he supports the story deviating from the source material.

The filmmaker isn't at all concerned about how Season 2 will likely deviate from the source material, as he expressed,"I love it. The story is great. Forget the game. The actors in the , just sensational. That was so well done." Luckily, fans can still see his return to horror directing with an episode of John Carpenter's Suburban Screams.
