Kaitlyn Dever talks ‘The Last of Us’ finale, ‘crazier’ Season 3

At 6 am in Brisbane, Australia and Citlin Diver, you are considering going to the beach. With the exception that it flows abroad, which is the only reason that made it have the option to check the waves in the first place. The flood has been delayed at the time of its calls to “Godzilla X Kong: Supernova”, which was filmed in the past two months.

How difficult is it raining? Like natural rains? Or is it a kind of flood that we see in the last minutes of the end of the season “Our last”?

“She is actually flowing like” The Last of ST “.

With the beach off the list, we have time for stability and talk about the conclusion of the bruising season (possibly confusing) for “The Last of Us”. Anyone who thinks that the end may feature a confrontation between the character Davir, Abe Anderson, the young woman Who killed Joel (Pedro Pascal) to avenge the death of her father, and Elie (Bella Ramsay), That was looking for Abe to determine her revenge, may disappoint your property.

Abe does not appear until the last three minutes. When you finally arrive, Illi’s ambush is restored. It is not the reunification of giving.

“I leave you live,” Abi Hamsa. “And you lost He – she! “

Then we hear the sound of a gunshot and the screen becomes black. After resetting, we see Abe dumped on a sofa in a completely different environment, as she was moved from her comfort to meet the militia leader Isaac (Jeffrey Wright). It takes a balcony in the T-Mobile Park in Seattle, where the stadium is now used as a base for the Washington Liberation Front. Its papal entrance positively, and since Abe asks the scene, the graphs on the screen: Seattle one day, which is a time frame we already lived from Elie’s point of view.

What happened against hell?

[Laughs] I don’t know. I have no idea.

The offer appears to be re -set it and we will start the third season after ABBY for a period of three days, which led to its confrontation with Ellie.

One may think, yes. but [“The Last of Us” co-creator] Craig [Mazin] He did not talk to me about what he was doing. All he told me was, “Just ready for what will come because it will be crazy.” He always said he wanted to make Season 2 Larger than the first season, and he said that the third season will be bigger. I am like, “Well, I will be ready.”

How did he prepare the offer in the first place?

In my first meeting with Craig and Nile [Druckmann, co-creator of “The Last of Us” game] They told me that their plan for the second season was the introduction of Abi to the world of “The Last of Us”. They told me the number of episodes, so I was not very surprised by that, although I was not thinking that the entire season would end me. [Laughs]

So when I got the text program and read this end …

You are like, “We are really doing this. Wow.” It is a lot of pressure. I always think about the times when I did things and I had one line in a scene, which is the most things to do. Everyone has a dialogue, and you are only thinking about your one line and how you will say, and if you germ it, the entire scene will take place due to one line. It is very terrifying – but it is also exciting.

You are talking about telling Abe Eli, “Did you waste it?” You really spit it with some heat.

It is good to know that. I was going back and forth between Vancouver and Los Angeles, so I had constantly having to return and return to the emotional intensity of my father. This was in fact the last scene that I launched.

How did you find your way to Abe’s anger?

Well, the first scene he called was Joel’s killing. Light. [Laughs] So, I will return to that, I always returned to that and Monologia Abe, what you say to Joel before shooting him. These words are very brutal and tied and really draw a picture. So I went back to this place, and how I was thinking about saying these words for five years.

Have you seen the Joel episode when it was broadcast or did you really saw it?

I saw it with my partner. But the first time I saw it, I was myself. Before that, I went to do [automated dialogue replacement] With Craig, and he asked, “Can I show you a little bit?” I was on the ground because I was very mired. This is the most intense episode of TV that I have ever seen. Then when I saw him later, I couldn’t believe it, although I had tried it myself.

You have experienced this, but you said that you really did not remember filming it because it was four days after your mother’s funeral. [Dever’s mother, Kathy, died from breast cancer in February 2024.] In some respects, it should be as if you were watching it for the first time.

She had to fly three days after her funeral. The fourth day was this scene in the chalet with Al -Wara’a and Joel on the ground. So, yes, everything is blurry, and I felt that I got his experience as a viewer for the first time. I will see things and go, “Oh, yes.” Sadness does something interesting with your mind. Spoil with your memory.

The filming of the scene in which you kill with brutality is one of the most beloved characters on the TV to what you were saying about the pressure. To do this under these circumstances, it must be overwhelming.

I felt terrified. I spent a lot of time thinking about the death of my mother before her death, I am thinking about how I am unable to continue. I couldn’t imagine. Moreover, it is a heartbreak to think about it, and how life continues. You have the option to continue to go or do not go to Vancouver and do so that she was so excited about me. After her passage, I realized that there was no part of me that he could not do so. I had to do it for her.

How did you resist behind fear?

My father really encouraged me. I really felt terrifying. It was like, “I got this. My mom was so excited that you should be in this offer.” Fortunately, the crew was very understanding. Everyone took care of me.

After that after 15 months, the episode was finally broadcast, which I imagine causing a different set of concerns. Have you gone online to check the reaction?

Of course I did! I kill the favorite character for everyone, the love of everyone’s life. I have never been part of anything big before. Like, the whole world is watching this. I had no idea what to expect.

What did you find?

It was more positive than I thought would be.

I didn’t play the game, so it was one of my first thoughts after watching it: Wow, players can keep the secret.

They can. I liked watching all the videos enjoyed by people as people were shooting their parents or partners watching and showing their reactions.

After playing the game, you got to know Abby and Joel for years.

My father was playing the second match and handed me the control unit and said: “Kaitlin, you have to see this.” In the game, it is very difficult and shocking.

On TV too!

[Laughs] But with the game, after they killed Joel, suddenly playing as a woman. My first reaction was, “Is this Eli? Do I play Elie?” It is interesting how they take these two people who suffer from each other in several ways.

I was thinking about how it would be great if the third season had a episode with Abe and her father, who reflects the person with Elie and Joel.

This is a really good idea. I hope to do something like this.

I have a feeling that you may. Maybe you know something about it. [Laughs]

Frankly, I can keep a secret too! I knew that Joel was dying a long period before the first season because I met a Nile years ago when they were talking about making a game from the game. He was showing me the second match and asked: “You want to know what is happening?” I am like, “Oh my God!” So I have been staying for a long time.

So you are good in keeping the secret. Players know how the third season is possible. I played the game. Are you shy?

[Laughs] We don’t know what Craig’s plans are. He was playing with dynamics, even in that first episode of the season where we see Abe taking over and being a leader.

Certainly, she looks leader in the last scene of the final.

This scene plays the idea that Abe is sitting in his strength. Whatever that’s, I will stay for myself now. People who played the game will have some guesses.

When I went to work on “Godzilla X Kong: Supernova” the next day when the Abby/Joel episode was broadcast, do people have a little different? Maybe stay a little distance? Hide golf clubs?

It was the wild to go to work that day. Everyone wanted to talk about it. And all they can get out of it is “,”OOOOOOFThat episode. “

One thing I kept looking for throughout the season is where they used CGI to remove a spider bite from your face. I could not find it.

[Laughs] It is in the first episode with the luxury. I went home for a few weeks and got a spider bite on my cheek. I thought it was a pimple. It was not a pimple. It was a huge spider bite … I hate using this word, but it was Rated. And amazing CGI. You cannot even tell her there. I still have a scar on my face because they had to cut it.

Therefore, to summarize: A Fireforage exchange of events.

For many reasons. I will never forget that.
