Bella Ramsey says most of the time Pedro Pascal was “the daughter” while filming The Last of Us

Game of Thrones wasn’t just the biggest show of the century, it was a huge family and a way of life for so many people for nearly a decade. Even though the show’s alums Pedro Pascal (Oberyn Martell) and Bella Ramsey (Lyanna Mormont) didn’t spend any time together on-screen, when they met on the set of their new HBO show The Last of Us, they instantly hit it off. And they value their friendship, a LOT.

Bella Ramsey reveals who really was “the daddy” on set

In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Ramsey reacted to some of the most popular fan theories about The Last of Us on the internet. When asked if Joel was actually Ellie’s father, she reminisced about her time with Pedro on the set. She said:

“Me and Pedro, it was sometimes like father-daughter energy but most of the time it was like two annoying siblings who like love each other and annoy everybody else. I also felt like I was his dad sometimes. I told him to like, breathe. Like, “It’s okay, you are doing a great job.” He also did that a lot to me. But he also was like a super dad sometimes.”

When will The Last of Us Season 2 arrive?

On her latest visit to The Jonathan Ross Show, Bella Ramsey talked about the approximate release date of Season 2 of The Last of Us. She/they said, “It will be a while. I think we’ll probably shoot at the end of this year, the beginning of next. So it’ll probably be the end of 2024, early 2025.”

What was the inside joke that made Pedro Pascal laugh?

In a video released by Sony Global post The Last of Us finale, Bella Ramsey talked about the scenes where Ellie uses puns to make Joel laugh. They said, “But the thing with puns, if you do it take after take after take, it becomes unfunny very quickly. So then what we did, was like, I pulled back inside jokes that we’d had.”

Pascal replied, “You knew exactly how to get me to laugh.”

Bella continued, “Like the winter of death.”

And Pascal begins to burst out laughing.

Bella says, “Remember? There we go!”
