After nearly nine weeks of tense and traumatic drama, season one of The Last of Us has reached its climax — and the internet's reactions were nothing short of entertaining. Here's what's happening with season 2 and when we can expect it.
The show was renewed for a second season after only a few episodes had aired back in January."I'm humbled, honoured and frankly overwhelmed that so many people have tuned in and connected with our retelling of Joel and Ellie's journey," said executive producer Neil Druckmann.
"The collaboration with [showrunner] Craig Mazin, our incredible cast and crew, and HBO exceeded my already high expectations. Now we have the absolute pleasure of being able to do it again with season two!"For those who don't know, The Last Of Us video game has a sequel – The Last Of Us 2 – that showrunners will be leaning on heavily for the second season of the show.
Released in 2020, The Last Of Us 2 is set five years after the events of the original and introduces the new character of Abby, who then joins Ellie on another adventure. Not laboured with a world to introduce, the season two narrative is reportedly much more expansive and could possibly be split into two seasons according to co-creator and showrunner Craig Mazin.
"It's a big animal to take apart, you know? Because it's a much bigger story and it's a more complicated story. It's a beautiful story," Mazin told

‘Desperate last grab’: Perrottet’s nest egg policy slammed ahead of state electionDominic Perrottet’s announced nest egg policy is a “desperate last grab” from a “desperate, dying government” ahead of the NSW state election, says City of Sydney’s Labor Councillor Linda Scott. Her comments come after the NSW Premier announced on Sunday a “future fund” for children under 10 if the Liberals win the upcoming state election. “It won’t benefit a single person for eight years and actually people need help with their cost of living right now,” Ms Scott told Sky News host Paul Murray. “The second reason it’s a bad policy is because the increases that they spoke about where your child might be able to get up to $28,000 – that was the minimum amount they spoke on – that’s modelled on a 7 per cent annual interest rate. “Something the government themselves had not been able to achieve for at least the last two years with their own investments. “And when you take the money out, there’s likely to be a chunk of tax you’d have to pay on it which will wipe out all the benefits.”
