With a five-year gap between the first season and the second, Ramsey noted that Ellie has undergone significant changes. In an interview with <em>Deadline<\/em> on Saturday, April 5, the actor revealed that they wanted Ellie to have more depth, maturity, and emotional weight this time around.<\/p>\n<p>Ramsey explained that while Ellie has grown tougher and developed more similarities to Joel (played by Pedro Pascal), she still maintains her core personality, including her signature sense of humor. \u201cI think she\u2019s a little harder, she\u2019s a bit more like Joel\u2026 but also she\u2019s still the same person,\u201d Ramsey said.<\/p>\n<p>Season 2 is expected to explore more tension between Ellie and Joel as they settle into the fortified city of Jackson, Wyoming. A recent trailer showcased Ellie confronting Joel, yelling, \u201cYou swore,\u201d which hints at the emotional rift the two characters will experience. Ramsey also revealed that Ellie continues to grapple with the lie Joel told her at the end of the first season, which will play a major role in shifting their relationship moving forward.
