The former Game of Thrones star now portrays Ellie in The Last of Us, the young companion to Pedro Pascal's Joel who holds immunity to the Cordyceps plague that nearly wiped out humanity. For the second season, the story picks up several years after the first, with Joel and Ellie living in a commune.

Previously, showrunner Craig Mazin, during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, elaborated on the subject of Ramsey’s evolution vs. the version of Ellie that was depicted in PlayStation’s The Last of Us game and its Part II sequel (a subject that’s been a focus of a rather unhealthy amount of online discourse).

There's been a bit of backlash against Bella Ramsey for playing Ellie on The Last of Us, but the cast and crew are ready for it.
