The Last of Us season 2 star Isabela Merced is full of praise for her co-star Bella Ramsey, as she reveals that the hit video game adaptation has almost finished filming its second season.
"We're on the tail end of it. I think we're about to be done soon," the actor, who plays Dina in the new chapter, told Josh Horowitz on the latest episode of Happy Sad Confused. "I already saw the teaser, [showrunner] Craig Mazin showed it to me, it's phenomenal, and I'm so excited for the world to see it."
"I'm really proud of Bella. I think, if I were to close this out as one of the last interviews I did before we wrapped, I'd say that I really hope Bella gets their flowers. They're working really, really hard, physically and emotionally. One thing I've learned throughout this is, 'Wow, you can really admire people who are younger than you.' You can really look up to them."
In season 2, Ramsey reprises their role as Ellie, while Pedro Pascal will be back as Joel. While we wouldn't want to spoil anything, given that the show will likely follow The Last of Us Part 2 closely, we can assume that the next batch of episodes will explore the fallout from Joel's fateful decision in the season 1 finale. Newbies Kaitlyn Dever and Young Mazino have been cast as Abby and Jesse, respectively.
