Pedro Pascal Confirms The Last of Us Season 2 Has Started Filming

During a recent interview with Deadline, The Last of Us star Pedro Pascal confirmed the production on the second installment of HBO’s hit horror drama has finally begun in Vancouver, Canada.

Pascal opened up about what it was like returning to the The Last of Us set, following the success of the show. He admitted that it felt kind of “strangely brand new” playing Joel Miller again. For his performance in Season 1, the Game of Thrones vet won his first SAG Award last Saturday for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series.

“Filming is going amazing. It’s sort of awe-inspiring the kind of focus and dedication that everyone has going into Season,” Pascal said. “It’s incredible to be back home with them and creatively and everybody, our entire crew, they’re working harder than I could even imagine, even harder than our first season which is close to impossible. It’s pretty inspiring and unbelievable.”

Who’s involved The Last of Us Season 2

The Last of Us is also being led by Bella Ramsey as Ellie, Gabriel Luna as Tommy Miller, and Rutina Wesley as Maria. Season 2 is expected to be based on Naughty Dog’s acclaimed video game sequel The Last of Us Part II, which will feature a significant time jump introducing a now grown-up Ellie. The next installment has also welcomed new cast members to the acclaimed horror drama, including Kaitlyn Dever as Abby, Young Manzino as Jesse, Isabela Merced as Dina, and Catherine O’Hara.
