\u201cI\u2019m humbled, honoured, and frankly overwhelmed that so many people have tuned in and connected with our retelling of Joel and Ellie\u2019s journey,\u201d said executive producer Druckman. \u201cThe collaboration with Craig Mazin, our incredible cast & crew, and HBO exceeded my already high expectations.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow we have the absolute pleasure of being able to do it again with season two! On behalf of everyone at Naughty Dog & PlayStation, thank you!\u201d<\/p>
\u201cI\u2019m so grateful to Neil Druckman and HBO for our partnership, and I\u2019m even more grateful to the millions of people who have joined us on this journey,\u201d said Mazin. \u201cThe audience has given us the chance to continue, and as a fan of the characters and world Neil and Naughty Dog created, I couldn\u2019t be more ready to dive back in.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Last Of Us takes place 20 years after modern civilization has been destroyed. Joel, a hardened survivor, is hired to smuggle Ellie, a 14-year-old girl, out of an oppressive quarantine zone. What starts as a small job soon becomes a brutal and heartbreaking journey as they both must traverse the U.S. and depend on each other for survival.<\/p>\n
