'The Last of Us' star Bella Ramsey jokes that she won't watch Pedro Pascal's 'Game of Thrones' death scene because she's 'unhealthily attached' to him

• "The Last of Us" star Bella Ramsey hasn't watched "Game of Thrones."
• Ramsey said she can't watch Pedro Pascal's infamous death scene in the series.

HBO's "The Last of Us" series is set to bring the story from the iconic video game to the small screen, with "Game of Thrones" stars Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey leading the post-apocalyptic tale as survivors Joel and Ellie.

The emotional story sees Joel escort Ellie across America because she's immune to the Cordyceps fungal infection that has ravaged the country, transforming millions of people into zombie-like beings.

"The Last of Us" is HBO's latest prestige drama, and the first trailers suggest it'll be as powerful as the games from Naughty Dog and Sony.

Interestingly, both of its lead stars are "Game of Thrones" alumni, as Pascal played Oberyn Martell in season four, while Ramsey played Lyanna Mormont from season six until its ending.

Both characters have pretty spectacular deaths in the show, but Ramsay told Jimmy Kimmel on Monday that she hasn't seen the show, nor has she watched Pascal's bloody ending at the hands of the Mountain in season four, saying: "I haven't seen it, but I've heard about it."

The young actor joked that she probably won't watch the scene because she's "unhealthily" attached to her costar.

Ramsey said: "I'm pretty attached, probably unhealthily attached to him. So, [maybe] don't watch it?"

The star went on to say that she thinks it would be fine because she could just text Pascal after watching it, even though he probably wouldn't reply straight away.

Ramsey added: "It'll be fine, I'll just text him two minutes later and he won't reply for a while."

Considering "The Last of Us" is set in a post-apocalyptic world ravaged by zombies, it's likely that there's going to be some heavy violence in the show, much like there is in the games. Thankfully, both Ramsey and Pascal are used to that after "Game of Thrones."

Ramsey recalled filming her final scene in "Thrones," in which a giant crushes Lyanna Mormont to death in the show's last season, saying that she had to apply her own fake blood before shooting.

She said: "It was a giant robotic claw and green screen, it's like programmed to shake me around. I was like 20 foot up in the air, they had to throw the blood up to me so I did it myself, because by the time they'd faffed about I'd swallowed half the blood if they did the whole process. So I just had a bottle of blood with me."

"The Last of Us" premieres on HBO on January 15.
