Filming for the third season of HBO's "The Last of Us" has entered a temporary production pause. The hiatus began on June 1 and is scheduled to conclude on June 28, with production resuming in Vancouver under the working title "Calm Current."

The upcoming season is set to heavily feature Abby, portrayed by Kaitlyn Dever, adapting key narratives from "The Last of Us Part II." Viewers can anticipate a deeper exploration of her three-day journey through Seattle, the aftermath of her father's death, and her intertwined story with Ellie and Joel.
