Mazin on finishing up season 2 of The Last of Us 

After the huge success of season 1, fans were eagerly waiting for season 2 to drop in. But there are a lot of obstacles in its way. The Writers Guild of America strike impacted the timeline of some of the major television shows, including The Last of Us season 2. As a result, the awaited Season 2 somehow ceased production for the strike. 

However, Chris Mazin‘s recent statements confirmed that he has finished writing for the Season 2 of The Last of Us. He spoke about his frustration as initially, his writing was going well but was impacted due to the strike, on his Threads account.
