Bella Ramsey may be the best actress Ellie could have ever gotten. Not only does she fill the role of a badass teenage girl to perfection, but she also does her own stunts and looks forward to getting more physical in The Last of Us Season 2 – and so do we!
The adaptation of The Last of Us will get its second season. Despite the fact that we'll have to wait quite some time for it, as production on TLoU Season 2 doesn't begin until early 2024, we can't wait for the return of Pedro Pascal as Joel and Bella Ramsey as Ellie.
Ramsey has shared her enthusiasm for continuing to perform her own stunts, expressing her eagerness to embrace the physical challenges of her role. Her commitment reflects a true embodiment of Ellie's character.
Bella Ramsey On The Last of Us Season 2: "I'm Excited For The Really Intense Stuff"
Now, we don't want to spoil too much for those who haven't played the video game masterpiece. But let us say this much: Ellie is obviously a bit older in The Last of Us 2 than she was in the first game - and she also gets into more fights and dangerous situations where she has to prove her physical abilities.
This is something that Bella Ramsey is looking forward to. When asked what she expects from the upcoming production, she revealed that she can't wait to get beat up:
I'm excited for the really intense stuff, because I did a bit of that in Season 1 obviously. Now I get to do more physical scenes because Ellie is more physically fit in Season 2. I love stunt stuff, and like waking up with bruises the next day, and finding myself with a black eye, just because it feels like so good to have done it.
Well, if you ask us... that could almost be what Ellie would say if you asked her how she felt about having to fight for her loved ones. You can read the full interview on collider.com. We can't wait for Season 2 and hope it will be as great as Season 1!
