Before the end of season two, fans of The last of us learned that Jesse (Young Mazino) voted against the quest for Ellie to take revenge on Joel’s killers.
According to ScreenThe manufacturers, Neil Druckmann and Craig Mazin, spoke of Jesse’s decision and his disagreements with Ellie on several subjects, which is far from the game where he had an easy -to -live relationship with her.
Neil estimated: “I would not describe it that way in the game. I think that in our conversations on the way Jesse voted, both under the same kind of notion, yes, he would vote to protect Jackson.”
“Because Jesse concerns the wider community more, at least the community to which it belongs, not the community of humanity, than on the individual, or even this pursuit of justice to seem to the more practical, very impractical characters, as very useless,” he said.
“There is a overlap between Jesse and Joel because I believe in similar circumstances, Joel would have voted in the same way.”
Likewise, his co-showrunner, Craig, added: “I loved how Jesse was an eagle scout, and I loved how, in the show, we do a little more.
Since Jesse is being training to manage Jackson, the manufacturer said: “He will be the Maria one day; he will manage all this. And that naturally makes us admire him. This makes us want to be like him.”
“He feels like the ideal person, as opposed to Ellie, who rolls in the shabby material of his own fears and pulses.”
“But what I like in this last episode, and in particular at this moment when Ellie and Jesse confront each other, when she discovers how he voted, she makes a point that I think I am starting to think, oh, yes, so there is another hero, because she is right,” said the showrunner.
Explaining how the characters’ morality collides, Craig said: “It is not that what she does is right, but his conviction that he is moral is so stimulable and it is so arbitrary that I am moral and honest and sacrificial and sacrificial to people as long as they are inside this wooden fence.”
“But if they are outside the wooden fence, I will let them die, even if they are a child. And I love it because no one in life is really an Eagle Scout, except for the real Eagle Scout.”
The final of season two of The last of us was broadcast. The production of season 3 should start in June 2025.
