HBO’s The Last of Us is looking at a shake-up for its third (and potentially final) season – not only on screen, where the focus expected to shift from Bella Ramsey’s Ellie to Kaitlyn Dever’s Abby, but also behind-the-scenes with Naughty Dog’s Neil Druckmann announcing that he is stepping down as co-showrunner on the series.

I really wanted to love season two of HBO’s The Last of Us. For the most part, I did — but it was also impossible to ignore the online masses saying that showrunners Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann had lost the thread in season two.

In addition, Halley Gross has also announced she will no longer be working on the HBO series. Gross previously co-wrote “The Last of Us Part II” with Druckmann and worked as an executive producer and writer on the HBO series.
