Bella Ramsey says Ellie has a feeling Joel lied to her in The Last of Us Finale

The HBO adaptation of the Naughty Dog video game The Last of Us successfully completed its first season, and it was a roaring success. It broke a number of records on Sunday, when the season finale aired, surpassing the likes of House of The Dragon in terms of overall viewership. The viewers were left divided as the show’s protagonist Joel makes a morally ambiguous choice, which will come to have a huge impact in Season 2.

What does Bella Ramsey (Ellie) think about The Last of Us Season 1 finale?

In an interview with Empire Magazine, Ramsey talks about Ellie’s point of view after the hospital incident, most of which she spends highly sedated. “I think Ellie knows,” says Ramsey. “There’s a part of her that knows or fears he’s not telling the truth. But she has to believe it. Because she can’t think about what it would mean if he isn’t telling the truth. She has to believe, because otherwise it would break her heart.”

How much time will it take to film The Last of Us Season 2?

The Last of Us showrunners Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann recently chatted with GQ Magazine after the finale of Season 1 aired on Sunday and talked about the upcoming season and the cliffhanger finale. They hinted that the second season was going to take at least two years to film, with Mazin teasing the fans saying, “I’m okay with that. That’s the anger of desire and anticipation.”

When does The Last of Us Season 2 begin filming?

In a recent interview with Collider, Pascal said, “In the year 2023? Oh, what season are we in now? We’re getting into spring? Yes, there is a chance. Yes.” The first season of The Last of Us took around 18 months to film. So, looking at the time gap, there’s a high probability that the second season won’t be here until 2025.
