The Last of Us showrunner on handling fan reactions to Season 2
At a recent press gathering, Druckmann openly stated that his primary concern isn’t the response from fans of the video game franchise regarding The Last of Us Season 2. Instead, he emphasized that he and co-showrunner Craig Mazin are dedicated to making the most suitable decisions for the show’s development.
Druckmann expressed that he has mentioned this point earlier, but he strongly believes that the best way to respect and honor our fans is by not allowing their influence or pressure to dictate our creative process. He explained that Craig and he are extremely careful when examining every moment and creative choice in order to explore all possible options and make the right decision for The Last of Us within this medium, which might not be the same for The Last of Us in a video game format.
Druckmann explained, “Are we effectively utilizing our resources and time in order to make the wisest decisions for creating the finest production possible?
