Ellie de Bella Ramsey experiences a lot of action, sorrow and agitation in the second season of HBO The last of us.
But a quiet scene from the third Sunday episode was the most difficult to get the most difficult.
Ramsey recalled that the scene where Ellie cries on the loss of Joel (Pedro Pascal) while feeling one of his jackets in the closet was the scene that they were most worried about making.
“Oh my god, in the closet, it was the most difficult (scene),” said the 21 -year -old Emmy candidate. “So I really find it difficult to cry in scenes. I can make a tear, but it’s different to cry. And even to get the tear, it is not easy for me. I do not cry in front of the people of my daily life. A very, very limited amount of people in my life will see me cry. me to shoot.
But Ramsey finally succeeded, and what worked was rather ironic.
“I tried (before crying scenes) to think of something really sad in my own life and trying to evoke emotions in this way,” said Ramsey. “It doesn’t really work for me because it takes me out of the truth of the situation for Ellie. So I remembered happiest Souvenirs I have with Pedro.
“What is always the saddest for me is to remember happy things,” they said. “I remembered us the first times we have met and all the shooting season, and the funniest moments. I remembered all this and through the objective of losing it – not just Joel and Ellie, but like me and Pedro – because the memories of me and Pedro and Joel and Ellie are so intertwined for me. ”
During last week The Hollywood Reporter Cover, Ramsey has developed their feelings about separation (at the workplace, at least) with Pascal.
“Understand (from the start of the show) the limited time that I and Pedro have together made us really cherish,” explains Ramsey. “This is something that we have become quite emotional while we were turning. We will be in the lives of others forever, and we will be in the heart of the other forever. ”
Ramsey also discussed what it was to go up to become the only advance of HBO Hit now that the character of Pascal was killed.
“I would never see myself as a leader,” says Ramsey. “But there is something that happens when I am given responsibility where I really like feeling and I take responsibility very seriously. I am very happy to direct a set and to have a lot of influence on the tone and the dynamics, especially since there are preconceived ideas on a young person who is n ° 1 on the call sheet … Everyone should know that they are appreciated as a team member, as a diver.”
