I'm like, in the same way that I prepared in season one. I've grown up. Ellie's grown up

0:34
training yes i have um i did like two almost like two months of proper like jiu-jitsu and and other
0:42
martial arts and just like boxing fighting combat training um before we even started shooting so
0:46
i'm yeah quite well equipped to take someone down if necessary do you know what i i tried to talk
0:52

0:57
me through a table through a table just through a table we're gonna set up outside get you to like
1:03
do a flip wow bosses said no they're like bella's worth a lot of money well i did it to jonathan
1:08
ross the other night you just flipped jonathan ross over yeah yeah yeah over my shoulder i wanted
1:12
to mention uh to the fans listening as well this is absolutely gonna be a spoiler free chat about
1:17
the new series um i guess you have to be so careful about spilling any beans i mean people
1:22
that take this kind of thing really serious don't they yeah have you because of that got really good
1:27
at guarding secrets are you quite good at not accidentally you know letting slip i'm really
1:32
good at keeping other people's secrets and keeping the show secret i'm terrible at keeping my own
1:37
i don have any people always go to me like tell me secret i like i literally have none i there nothing yeah i told them all yeah uh we had uh anthony mackie on the show a couple of weeks ago to talk about captain america cool he has one friend he tells
1:52
everything like there's a guy out there he wouldn't let us know his name but there's a guy out there
1:55
who knows the plot for like the next 19 marvel films no do you have a confident like that who
2:00
you're like right go on i'll tell you everything my uh no actually i can say my parents normally
2:06
know stuff but normally because my mum because i was in the industry since i was quite young she
2:10
came with me on set everywhere so she'd always like know everything just because she'd be there
2:14
but now i mean this season was the first time i've been away properly without my mom or dad there so
2:19
i was like they don't know what's gonna happen which is really exciting for like for me that
2:23
they're gonna watch it and like not know just lord it over them yeah yeah exactly no there's no one
2:29
that in my in my life at the moment who knows the plot of season zero the last of us apart from
2:33
everyone who worked on it of course um well we're like super excited to see the incredible bond ellie
2:40
and joel have played by the amazing pedro pascal we really want to see that continue i saw you
2:46
having a chat with pedro where he mentioned how much he loves gorgonzola cheese oh yeah how do
2:51
you feel about someone eating stinky foods in public i am guilty of eating an egg sandwich on
2:56
a train no which i feel like is the worst crime so i feel like i can't really talk
3:01
Bella that's awful it's really bad but I do try and make it
3:04
as fast as possible and then put it in the bin I don't know if that's worse
3:08
the speedy and extra it's so gross isn't it anyway Gorgonzola oh my goodness
3:17
there is something really compelling about watching something where it involves like how we would all act
3:23
if there was some sort of apocalypse or end of world type event
3:27
I think we all like to fancy ourselves a bit of a survivalist like I be alright I nip down to the big tescos i get some supplies i be able to survive for about 10 years off of a canned soup yeah um how do you feel like you would survive in some sort of an apocalypse like would you do as
3:44
well as any i think i'd be all right you know yeah big tescos get the get the cans of chickpeas and
3:50
soup you'd be you'd be fine make a lot with that yeah exactly i think i just like find somewhere
3:55
are really good to hide. I'm quite good at that. I'm quite good at finding hiding spaces. So that would be my tactic
4:00
I feel like people are too keen on like, I'm going to go out and like, fight these things
4:04
I'm like, no, because you're going to die in two seconds. Go and hide. No one's ever going to find you
4:07
That's my plan. I'll just be in the corner with my chickpeas. Sorry, that is an incredible image
4:15
to see in like a wardrobe somewhere just eating cold chickpeas. I'm surviving, aren't I
4:20
I'm still here. I am slightly allergic to chickpeas, I'm going to lie. so it's probably why did you pick because they're very they're very stable you've been part of two
4:29
huge franchises like game of thrones and the last of us i imagine it does come with its challenges
4:34
but it must also be incredible to be part of something that is a huge part of a lot of people's
4:41
lives it's really cool yeah and it when people tell me like how much the the last of us all that
4:48
game of thrones big shows like that like mean to them and i think there's a there's it's a really
4:52
lovely bonding experience often for people and their friends or partners or families
4:57
Especially with something like The Last of Us, people have played the games together with
5:02
their families and they're watching the show together. I think that's really cool and I
5:05
really like that also The Last of Us started as a game. It's now in this TV medium. It's
5:10
more accessible to non and stuff like me I not a gamer and I wouldn have known about the story of The Last of Us unless it was adapted into this TV show And so it really cool Yeah it means a lot There something we do on the show Spit tongue in cheek Bella It called Please Stop Asking Me
5:25
So this is the question that comes up quite a lot. And look, we're not saying these are good questions or bad questions
5:32
Just this one question in particular, it comes up a lot. My favourite, my Hall of Fame response is from Simon Pegg
5:39
So he's Please Stop Asking Me. He's like, Stop asking me for sequels. there's not going to be a shawn of the dead 2 it's not going to be a hot fuzz this time it's
5:46
personal right we did some great films right if you want to enjoy them there's not going to be a
5:50
part two do you have a please stop asking me oh gosh i mean i've just been on a three-week
5:55
press tour and one of the most common question i get asked it's about it's it's well this is the
6:01
question i'm sick of at the moment is um so bella you played ellie was 14 in uh season one and now
6:10
she's 19 in season two there's been a five-year age gap how did you prepare to play an older ellie
6:15
in season two i'm like i in the same way that i prepared in season one i've grown up ellie's
6:21
grown up like there's nothing to tell i've got nothing to say to you anyway i'm gonna get that
6:25
ask that question again probably to probably tonight probably for every day for for the next
6:30
like few weeks so no offense to anyone asking me that question but that that's that's the question
6:34
that I'm a little bit sick of. How did you prepare for a five-year age
6:39
I did this. Yeah, exactly. Just waiting. Just sat there and waiting
6:43
and waiting for me to try to grow a few inches. It didn't work out
6:49
