Fans of The Last of Us series had barely recovered from Neil Druckmann's recent statement that a new game might not be coming, when a sudden glimmer of hope appeared. Insider Daniel Richtman claims that the next installment is not only in development but has already cast its actors, and some scenes have even been filmed.

Given the rather vague earlier statement from Naughty Dog's director, the rumors might hold some truth. Firstly, when Druckmann said there would be "no next The Last of Us", he might have been referring to the already-in-development sequel. Secondly, he has made similar statements before—prior to the announcement of Part II. On the other hand, Richtman has had his share of inaccurate leaks.

Regardless, it is known that at least a concept for the new installment exists. As for an announcement or any other official news, the studio might not want to divert attention from its upcoming new IP—Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet.
