Interview
Bella Ramsey discusses Ellie’s sexuality in The Last of Us HBO adaptation
Game of Thrones star Bella Ramsey won millions of hearts playing the young and brave Lyanna Mormont on the HBO fantasy epic, even though her role was short-lived. She accurately portrayed the proud and quirky young warrior as she stabbed a giant wight during her last battle at Winterfell. It seems her days of adventure are not over yet, she has landed yet another action-filled role in HBO’s upcoming video game adaptation The Last of Us, and she’s grateful for it.
The 19-year-old actress is currently playing Ellie in the HBO adaptation of The Last of Us. In a recent interview with Yahoo! Entertainment, Ramsey talked about how she is glad Ellie’s sexuality wasn’t left out and her being a lesbian will be explored later on in the series. She said, “I wouldn’t have let that happen either. It is part of who she is and what I like about the show is that it’s not made into this huge deal. It’s her existing in this world and loving women… and Joel is cool with it. I think it’s done really well.”
Ramsey herself is non-binary, as she recently came out openly about it during the show’s premiere interviews. Do you think Ellie’s sexuality plays an important part in The Last of Us? Tell us in the comments below!
