Season 2 will contain a major timeline change.
The Last of Us Season 2 introduces Kaitlyn Dever’s Abby, a central character to the story.
The TV show shifts the timeline so viewers get this context earlier on.
“We can withhold certain things and make it a mystery that will be revealed later in the story.
We couldn’t do that in the show because you’re not playing as her.
So we need other tools, and that context gave us that shortcut,” he said.
“It would probably get spoiled to them between seasons, and we didn’t want that.
Showrunner Craig Mazin previously teased a major timeline change for Season 2.
The Last of Us Season 2 arrives Sunday, April 13.
The Matrix actor Joe Pantoliano plays Eugene, a character referenced in the game but never seen.
