‘The Last of Us’ Director Breaks Down Ellie and Nora’s ‘Climactic’ Confrontation and How Jesse’s ‘Timely’ Return Brings Back Memories of Joel
"The Last of Us" Episode 5 director Stephen Williams breaks down filming Ellie and Nora's final confrontation and the significance of Jesse's return.
Director Stephen Williams, who is new to the world of “The Last of Us,” explains that the scene was filmed on location at The Orpheum Theater in Vancouver, and when Ramsey finished singing, everyone on set was simply left “damp eyed.” “It was such an evocative moment — it’s so sad and filled with longing, yearning and heartbreak as Ellie experiences and relives the brutal murder of Joel in front of her very eyes. The episode also sees the return of familiar faces, mainly Jesse (Young Mazino), who we learn had trailed behind Ellie and Dina (Isabela Merced) the day after they left for Seattle.
