I’m stoked to see how they handle the emotional rollercoaster of Part 2’s story, especially with such a stacked cast. Seven episodes feels tight, but if they nail the pacing, it’s gonna hit harder than a Clicker ambush.

It’s awesome to see HBO committing to four seasons—gives them room to really flesh out the world and characters beyond the games. Also, Kaitlyn Dever as Abby Perfect casting, can’t wait to see her bring that intensity to the screen
