• Bella Ramsey’s own fame has taken her by surprise.
• She shared: “It’s weirder seeing billboards locally than it was in LA.
• Bella plays the part of Ellie in the HBO drama series.

After attending the Los Angeles premiere of “The Last of Us,” the 19-year-old actress recently flew back to England, and Bella acknowledges that she’s still getting used to the attention of admirers.

She shared: “It’s weirder seeing billboards locally than it was in LA.

“I took my driving test the other day – which I failed – and during that I kept driving past the billboards, which was quite strange.”

Bella plays the part of Ellie in the HBO drama series, and her family are now “forcing themselves to watch the show”.

She told the BBC: “It’s not the sort of thing they would normally watch.

“My grandma sent a message to my mum last night saying, ‘it’s not easy watching but it is rather thrilling’. That’s what they are making of it.”

‘The Last of Us’ is an adaptation of the 2013 video game of the same name.

And the actress – who has started playing the game on her PlayStation – has been thrilled by the positive response to the new series.

She said: “It’s really cool that video games can work in a cinematic medium.

“Maybe it will form a blueprint for video game adaptations going forwards. It’s such a good representation of how video games can be adapted in the right hands.”
