Will Bella Ramsey Return in ‘The Last of Us’ Season 3? The Star Finally Spills the Beans

From the desolate, mushroom-infested landscapes of a
post-apocalyptic America to the raw, emotional depths of human connection, The
Last of Us captured the eyes of audiences with its critically acclaimed
first two seasons. Bella Ramsey, as the resilient and unforgettable Ellie, gave
a performance that anchored the series, told themes of survival, loss, and the search
for hope.

As the story pushes forward, the third season of The Last
of Us promises to dig even deeper into Ellie’s world, exploring the complex
repercussions of her past. But will Ellie’s face be the same?

Will Bella Ramsey’s return in season 3?

Bella Ramsey has returned to Vancouver for filming, a city
that has become a second home due to the production of The Last of Us. According to the Variety Awards Circuit podcast, they answered about their return to the season 3 of the show. When asked about Ellie’s screen time in The Last of Us Season 3, Bella Ramsey offered a cryptic response. “I sort of know, but I cannot tell you, I am afraid,” they stated, keeping details about their character’s role under wraps. The series has consistently excelled at blending intense action
with profound character development, and season 3 is expected to be no
exception, thanks to Ramsey’s flawless acting.

Bella Ramsey also reflected on their unusual entry into acting,
beginning with an unexpected Game of Thrones audition. This initial
experience was driven by fun rather than career aspirations, a mindset that has
persisted. Not growing up in a film-centric family meant they approached their
first major role without pressure, simply relishing the opportunity to express
different characters. Ramsey’s unique journey into acting was marked by an
unexpected start and a sustained passion, which prepared them for the intense demands
of leading a major production.

The foundation proved crucial as they faced the challenges
of The Last of Us’s second season and took on a new level of
responsibility on the set of Season 3, with the man behind the creation stepping back.

Who stepped back in The Last of Us Season 3?

After an incredibly demanding second season of The Last
of Us, Bella Ramsay is all set for season 3. However, that is sadly not the case with everyone. With Pedro Pascal’s Joel getting killed by Abby, Pascal remains out of the show now. While in the show, Ellie seeks revenge for Joel, giving her a new responsibility, following Pascal’s departure from the show has made Ramsey first on the call sheet, a new experience that brought significant
responsibility. Apart from this, the team also faced a significant shift due to the
news of creator Neil Druckmann’s leaving.

The news that Neil Druckmann, creator of The Last of Us game and executive producer of the series, is stepping back has prompted an adjustment for the team. However, the bold and free
Bella Ramsey, whose autism diagnosis has brought them greater freedom and
self-acceptance, asserts that Druckmann’s creative vision remains integral to
the show. His foundational input and the world he built will continue to shape
the story, ensuring that his spirit infuses every aspect of the story. With changes on all fronts, it will be interesting to see how the season 3 unfolds and what it has in store for Ramsay’s Ellie.
