The creators promise answers on Isaac and on the war that left fans with a thousand theories on The Last of Us
When Isaac appeared in the second season of The last of usMany fans scratched their heads. Who really is this leader of the liberation front of Washington (WLF)? What are you looking for? Why is there so much tension with the Serafitas? Although the episodes advanced with intensity, the character played by Jeffrey Wright was wrapped in shadows … for now.
But there is good news for those who were losing patience: season 3 promises answers. This was confirmed by the shows of Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann in the official podcast of the series. Of course, the explanation took for a reason that many suspected: “We didn’t know if they would cancel,” Mazin confessed.
The answers to Isaac will arrive in season 3
The second episode of the television adaptation of The last of usCurrently in transmission in Hbo and Max (Sky Atlantic and now in the United Kingdom), he has decided to play with the Times. Unlike the first season, which has completely covered the first video game, the story of The last of us part II Will be divided into Two seasons. This means that there are still many letters to play, especially now that only three episodes remain to close this second part.
In episode 4 we saw Isaac who questioned an Serafiawhich showed the gravity of the conflict between the factions in the post -apocalyptic Seattle. But It was not explained why I’m in war Nor what are the real interests of the character. That omission was not accidental, according to Mazin: “There will be some mysteries. The question is: what is Isaac chasing?”
Neil Druckmann was even more direct: “Now that we are renewed for the third season, we can say that you will surely get those answers”. The series, like its original material, is not one of those that release all the information. He prefers to cook the voltage over low heat and go if he is getting it.
Isaac is not just a character. In the video game, his figure imposes respect and awakens fear. The leader of the WLF company makes morally questionable decisions that directly influence Abby’s fate, one of the main characters in part II. His role in television adaptation has the potential to be shocking as in the game, especially if they explore their past and motivations with deeper.
The conflict with the Serafitas (also known as “Los Tilladores”) is one of the central axes of this part of the story. Two groups in front, different visions of the world after the collapse of civilization and a level of violence that leaves no room for shades. The most attentive fans are already theorizing on how the series could expand these elements and add new levels to the postpocalic drama.
Insured renewal
The good news is that HBO seems engaged in the long -term project. The renewal announcement also came before the second season premiere, something that rarely happens if there is no full confidence in success. And I saw what you see, the interest of the public is still in spite of.
For those who follow the series a week, the preview calendar and the official reviews are available on the HBO Max page or on specialized media. If you have not yet hooked, this is the ideal time: with a narrative divided into three acts and mysteries that is about to be resolved, The last of us Aims to be one of the great television events of the year.
The combination of action, human drama and loyalty to the original game It is still one of the greatest attractions in the series. The introduction of characters such as Abby, Lev or Isaac itself enriches a complex universe. And even if some answers are planned, the creators say that everything is thought, measured and, above all, justified.
As Mazin said in the podcast: “The most important thing to understand the characters is to know what they want. And we will find out. You just have to have a little patience”.
