HBO's The Last of Us Season 2 will resurrect cut content from the original The Last of Us Part II video game, according to showrunner and Naughty Dog studio head Neil Druckmann. Druckmann revealed to Entertainment Weekly that the show will revive "pretty brutal" scenes, including elements from the "Lost Levels" partially restored in the PlayStation 5 remaster. These levels, such as Jackson Party, The Hunt, and Seattle Sewers, offer diverse tones, ranging from relatively peaceful moments (Ellie at a party, tracking a boar) to the intense horror sequences characteristic of the game and show.

The inclusion of this cut content promises a thrilling, intense experience for viewers. Druckmann hinted at the appearance of a previously unshown "pretty prominent" character, mirroring the Season 1 introduction of Frank.
Season 2 introduces a significant cast expansion, including Kaitlyn Dever as Abby, Danny Ramirez as Manny, and Tati Gabrielle as Mel, among others. Catherine O'Hara's role remains a mystery.
With the Season 2 premiere slated for April, answers to these mysteries are imminent. However, HBO plans to extend the adaptation of The Last of Us Part II beyond a single season, unlike Season 1's comprehensive coverage of the first game. Showrunner Craig Mazin explained that Part II's extensive narrative necessitates this, and Season 2, comprising seven episodes, concludes with a "natural breakpoint," leaving the possibility of a Season 3 open, though not yet confirmed.
