I think I know where the upcoming season of The Last of Us will end based on photos from the set. If this is correct, I hope HBO is handling things correctly. Since I play the game The Last of Us Part II, which serves as the basis for season 2, I’m well aware of all the plot twists and overarching plots that will probably be repeated in the live-action version. The same could be said for my understanding of how The Last of Us season 1 concluded.

The length of the game means The Last of Us season 3 (and possibly beyond) will be required to do the story justice in its new form. Therefore, The Last of Us season 2’s story needs to decide where to leave the audience wanting more. If my theory about when this may be is true, then the show must be careful. One of the game’s biggest moments could set the stage for a massive cliffhanger ahead of The Last of Us season 3’s release. However, if so, I’m worried it could actually hurt the show overall if handled incorrectly.
